Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors
serving St. Louis, MO

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.

Studying computational biology at Columbia means Sean reads dense scientific figures and experimental data every week — which is essentially what the ACT Science section tests. He treats it as a data-interpretation exercise, teaching students to pull trends from graphs, evaluate conflicting hypotheses, and ignore the intimidating jargon that makes passages seem harder than they are. His 34 ACT composite backs up the approach.

I am a junior pre-med student studying health management at Saint Louis University. I began tutoring my peers in high school and continued my passion for teaching throughout college. I tutor high school students studying for the SAT and ACT. I also tutor math, science, and spanish. I recognize that every student has a different style of learning and I plan each lesson according to the student. My goal is to help my students achieve their goals and realize their potential.

I am excited to help anyone who might need it!

Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but John reframes it as a data interpretation exercise. He teaches students to ignore the jargon, zero in on graph trends and table relationships, and answer questions in under a minute each. His 35 ACT composite reflects how well this systematic, no-nonsense approach works in practice.

Most students overthink ACT Science because they assume it tests content knowledge — in reality, it's a data-interpretation exam wrapped in scientific language. As a high school science teacher who's taught everything from chemistry to forensic science, Samuel reads these passages fluently and shows students exactly how to pull answers from graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints. He scored a 34 composite on the ACT himself.

Most of the ACT Science section isn't about knowing science — it's about reading graphs, interpreting experimental setups, and spotting trends in data tables under time pressure. Joy currently teaches middle school science and previously led an elementary natural sciences department, so she brings real lab fluency to teaching students how to parse conflicting viewpoints and extract the right data points quickly.

The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation test disguised as science — and Jacob's chemistry background means he's spent years reading graphs, analyzing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from conflicting data sets. He teaches students to ignore the jargon and zero in on what each figure actually shows, a strategy that helped him earn a 34 ACT composite. Rated 5.0 by students.

The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a data interpretation test dressed up in lab coats. Kristen, who scored a 33 ACT composite, teaches students to read graphs, compare experimental setups, and identify conflicting viewpoints quickly, treating each passage like a close reading exercise rather than a chemistry problem.

The ACT Science section is less about knowing biology or chemistry and more about reading graphs, interpreting data tables, and evaluating conflicting hypotheses under time pressure. Parag treats it as a data-literacy exercise, teaching students to locate key variables and trends quickly rather than getting bogged down in scientific jargon.

Katherine's biology degree and dental science training mean she actually understands the experiments described in ACT Science passages — but she teaches students that the section is really about reading graphs, interpreting data trends, and evaluating conflicting viewpoints. Her 33 ACT composite came from exactly this kind of strategic approach, treating each passage as a data literacy exercise rather than a science quiz. Rated 5.0 by students.

Most students panic when they see the ACT Science section, but it's really a data interpretation test disguised as science. Megan's background teaching biology, chemistry, and physics means she can quickly clarify the actual science when it matters — and more importantly, show students when they can ignore it entirely and just read the graphs. Her 33 ACT composite and 5.0 rating speak to how well that approach translates to score gains.

Most students panic when they see ACT Science passages packed with unfamiliar terminology and dense data tables. Vijaya treats the section as a data interpretation exercise, teaching students to read graphs before reading text and to answer conflicting-viewpoints questions by isolating each scientist's core claim. Her own 34 ACT composite came from exactly this kind of systematic breakdown.

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.

The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam disguised as science — and Taylor's genetics background means she's spent countless hours reading graphs, analyzing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from complex data sets. With a 33 ACT composite, she teaches students to quickly identify variables, spot trends in tables, and answer conflicting-viewpoints passages without getting lost in jargon. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a high school graduate from The Pembroke Hill School in Kansas City, Missouri and currently studying at Washington University in St. Louis in the class of 2024. Through my high school's Spanish program, I tutored students just two years below my level of Spanish. And through our debate program, for my sophomore, junior, and senior years, I mentored students new to the activity. I have always seen helping other students as an opportunity of growth, not only for that student, but for myself as well. I feel that I am qualified to tutor all middle and most high school levels of math, chemistry, and Spanish. As for standardized tests, I am most oriented towards the ACT. My favorite subject to learn and tutor is Math because it allows the student an opportunity to understand a concept much deeper than the surface. And that is my focus for when I learn a concept or teach a concept: understanding not only the what but the how and why as well.

I am a dental student at University of Missouri-Kansas City and I will graduate with a DDS in 2025. I have benefitted immensely from study groups, peer workshops, and online resources during my time in undergrad, so I know how much a little extra work can help in the long run. I am excited to work with you to make your English, reading, writing, biology, or psychology goals a reality! When I'm not doing school stuff, I love to read, hang out with my foster cats, and spend time outside.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder. I am a Colorado native who enjoys rock climbing and nature. I work currently for a large international engineering consulting company and specialize in water engineering.

Most of the ACT Science section isn't really about science — it's about reading graphs, interpreting conflicting viewpoints, and pulling data from dense tables under time pressure. Laura's medical training means she does this daily with clinical research, and she teaches students to treat each passage as a data extraction exercise rather than a content quiz. She holds a 5.0 client rating.

The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a data interpretation test disguised as one. Emily's background in biology, chemistry, and biostatistics means she can quickly teach students to parse conflicting viewpoints passages and extract trends from dense graphs, which is where most points are lost. Her 35 ACT composite shows she's mastered the pacing and strategy the section demands.

I am a 2023 graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a Finance/Economics major and a minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. I am a passionate student in the math and business realms, as I enjoy the intuitiveness of the former and the real-world potential of the latter. During classes in middle and high school, I developed a reputation of being a good source of help within my classes in a non-tutor capacity, and grew that into a peer tutor role a couple times a week during lunch my senior year of high school. What I hope to accomplish with my tutoring is ensure that you not only achieve your desired grade/score, but see how the different concepts relate to each other in the bigger picture. The more important part is to critically think about the subject matter in other, more unfamiliar contexts. Also, in my math subjects, I seek to provide personal secrets in realms including quicker computation strategies, unique acronyms for certain rules, and other intuitive shortcuts.

The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam disguised as biology, chemistry, and physics. Dennis's astrophysics research at Princeton — where he analyzed simulations of cosmic ray acceleration and turbulent plasmas — gave him the exact skill set this section tests: reading complex graphs, comparing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from conflicting data sets under time pressure. Rated 4.7 by students.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it tests whether you can read a graph, compare two experimental setups, and draw a conclusion under time pressure. Sharan's 36 composite and her premed science background at Cornell mean she can teach both the data-interpretation shortcuts the section demands and the underlying biology or chemistry when a question does require content knowledge.

I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.

I'm not tutoring, I love walking through New York for design inspiration and taking carpentry, metalworking, and illustration classes.

The ACT Science section is less about knowing chemistry or biology and more about interpreting graphs, tables, and conflicting experimental viewpoints under time pressure. Sarah scored a 35 ACT composite and treats this section as a data-literacy exercise, teaching students to identify variables and trends quickly without getting distracted by unfamiliar scientific jargon. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands.

The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a data interpretation exercise disguised as one. Christopher scored a 35 composite and teaches students to read graphs, compare experimental designs, and identify conflicting viewpoints quickly, drawing on his mechanical engineering background at Harvard to make scientific reasoning feel intuitive.

I am a junior at Purdue University studying Aerospace Engineering and am part of the Air Force ROTC program. I have 6 years of tutoring experience at places including Kumon, Mathnasium, and Purdue University. I have worked with kids of all ages from kindergarten to sophomores in college, each with their own set of unique strengths, and tutored a variety of subjects, including calculus, trigonometry, geometry, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics. Like many of my previous students, I struggled to understand concepts that I was being taught and was a terrible test taker. However, I found ways to overcome my obstacles and develop an better intuition for what I was learning. I believe that it is only this intuition and understanding that helps overcome these obstacles. My least favorite thing to see people be discouraged, so with a little bit of guidance and reassurance, I want to show people that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.

The ACT Science section is less about biology or chemistry knowledge and more about reading graphs under pressure — and Tracy, who scored a 36 composite, approaches it exactly that way. She teaches students to ignore the scientific jargon, locate the variables in each figure, and identify trends before even glancing at the questions. Once students stop trying to understand the experiment and start extracting data, their accuracy jumps.

Most students panic when they see an unfamiliar experiment on the ACT Science section, but the test is really about interpreting graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints under time pressure. Sugi's dual background in biochemistry and cognitive science — plus years of reading dense research literature in medical school — makes her especially effective at teaching students to extract data quickly without getting lost in scientific jargon. Her perfect 36 ACT speaks for itself.

The ACT Science section tests data interpretation far more than scientific knowledge, but students with science backgrounds still have an edge in parsing unfamiliar experiments quickly. Danielle is a first-year med student at Pitt with a biology degree from Tufts, so conflicting-viewpoints passages and complex data tables are second nature to her. She scored a 36 composite and teaches students to read graphs before reading text — a simple shift that consistently saves time.
