Certified ACT Math Tutor
John
BA Rockhurst University
1+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 35 ACT composite required John to dominate the Math section, and he knows which topics carry the most weight — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, and logarithm properties show up repeatedly and are where most students leave points on the table. He teaches efficient problem-solving strategies that cut through the section's time pressure, so students spend seconds, not minutes, on questions designed to slow them down.

Kathleen
BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate at Washington University, and I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Math has always been one of my favorite subjects. I love Pre-algebra, Calculus, Linear Algebra and everything in between! I have tutored for about four years and have worked with students of all ages. Most students come to me for Math, but I have also worked with students on SAT and ACT test prep, Statistics and Physics. Everyone learns in a slightly different way, and I love figuring out the best way to teach something to people individually and dig down to what questions they really need to have answered to understand the material. In my spare time, I like to go on long bike rides and explore St. Louis's restaurants. I also love baking, playing with dogs and cats, watching movies with my friends and playing soccer.

Samuel
MS University of Missouri-Columbia • BA University of Missouri-Columbia
9+ Years Tutoring

Teaching AP Chemistry and Honors Biology day in and day out means Samuel constantly uses the algebra, proportional reasoning, and data-analysis skills that fill the ACT Math section — he's the kind of tutor who can explain why a formula works because he applies it in a real classroom every day. His 34 ACT composite and 4.9 rating speak to both his command of the content and his ability to make it click under timed conditions.

A 34 ACT composite means Jacob handled the Math section's trickiest content — logarithms, matrices, trigonometric identities — under real time pressure. He teaches students to categorize each problem type on sight so they can allocate time strategically, spending seconds on straightforward algebra and saving energy for the higher-level geometry and pre-calc questions at the end.

Sean
BA Columbia University in the City of New York
9+ Years Tutoring

Computational biology at Columbia means Sean spends his time writing code to model biological systems — work that demands constant fluency with algebra, probability, and data interpretation, which happen to be the three pillars of ACT Math. He scored a 34 composite and uses that experience to teach students how to quickly classify each of the 60 questions by type so they're never wasting time deciding *how* to start a problem. Rated 4.9 by students.

14+ Years Tutoring

Scoring well on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for second-guessing whether a problem needs the law of sines or a system of equations. Megan teaches students to categorize each question type on sight so they can select the right approach instantly. Her 33 ACT composite and her experience across algebra, calculus, and middle school math give her a clear read on where speed breaks down and how to fix it.

Kristen
BA Rockhurst University
1+ Years Tutoring

Most ACT Math questions test algebra and proportional reasoning that Kristen covers daily as a seventh-grade math and reading teacher — she knows exactly which foundational gaps cause students to stall on problems that should be quick points. Her 33 ACT composite backs up that content knowledge, and her classroom instinct for spotting where a student's thinking derails means practice sessions zero in on the specific skills that move scores rather than reworking material a student already owns.

Evan
BA University
8+ Years Tutoring

I am currently working towards an Aerospace Engineering degree at the University of Colorado, Boulder. In high school, I worked with 5th grade students tutoring math. Beyond that, I was always avaliable to help my classmates learn topics that I may have understood better at the time. Overall, math and science courses are my favorite to help people with because I enjoy those courses myself and think the knowledge is not hard to learn if given the right teacher and enough time. In teaching, I like to understand the level of comprehension the student has first before just going in and telling them what he/she should do. It is more effective to learn how to teach yourself the knowledge than to just be able to regurgitate it onto a test. Other than academics, I like playing basketball, video games, and just hanging out and messing around with friends.

He teaches students to classify problems on sight — coordinate geometry, matrix operations, logarithm properties — and match each type to a fast solution path. His PhD in Computational Mathematics means he can also dig deeper when a student's underlying algebra or trig foundations need reinforcing.

Earning a 36 ACT composite, Eric approaches the Math section as a pacing and pattern-recognition challenge as much as a content test. The first 40 questions reward speed and accuracy on pre-algebra through coordinate geometry, while the final 20 demand quick thinking on trigonometry and matrices — and he teaches students to shift gears between those two phases deliberately. His method turns the 60-minute time crunch from a source of panic into a manageable strategy.
