I am pursuing a career in dentistry/oral surgery and will be beginning dental school at Boston University this fall. For this reason I recently took the DAT, which I am capable of assisting you with as well. During my undergraduate education, which I completed this past December, I worked in my school's tutoring center, helping my peers succeed in mathematics and science courses. Outside of my academic life, I am a big sports fan and I mostly follow the New York sports teams. For fun, I like to play basketball and golf with my friends. I am looking forward towards getting to know you and helping you with your academic needs.

The ACT Math section covers everything from pre-algebra to trigonometry in 60 minutes, so knowing the content isn't enough — students need a strategy for pacing and question triage. Grant scored a 33 ACT composite and has spent nearly a decade teaching algebra and geometry, which means he can quickly diagnose where a student loses time and drill the specific skills that recover points. He breaks each practice test into patterns so students recognize question types before they even finish reading them.
Carnegie Mellon's engineering curriculum doesn't let you coast on math — Raaga's dual degree in Chemical and Biomedical Engineering required constant fluency with algebra, trigonometry, and data analysis, which maps directly onto the content spread across all 60 ACT Math questions. Her 36 ACT composite means she's already navigated the section's pacing demands firsthand and knows where the test rewards efficiency over brute-force calculation. Rated 5.0 by students.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling everything from pre-algebra ratios to trigonometric identities under serious time pressure — 60 questions in 60 minutes leaves no room for second-guessing. Ved earned a 36 ACT composite and built his speed by categorizing problems on sight, so he teaches students to recognize question types instantly and apply the fastest solution path. His science and math coursework keeps these concepts sharp and ready to explain at any level.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite required Sid to move through the Math section's 60 questions efficiently, triaging problems by difficulty and knowing when to set up an equation versus when to back-solve from the answer choices. He teaches those pacing and strategy decisions alongside the actual content — coordinate geometry, trigonometry, logarithms — so nothing on test day feels unfamiliar.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite gave Sai firsthand insight into the Math section's pacing traps — problems that look complex but collapse once you identify the right setup. He teaches students to recognize question types on sight, from coordinate geometry to probability, and allocate their 60 minutes so the hardest problems don't eat into easy points.
Every ACT Math question can be solved in under a minute if a student knows which tool to reach for — and that's exactly what Rahul teaches. From coordinate geometry and trigonometry to logarithms and matrices, he maps each problem type to a specific solution method so students stop burning time on trial and error. His own 35 ACT composite backs up an approach built on efficiency and pattern recognition.
The ACT Math section covers everything from pre-algebra to basic trig, but the real challenge is speed: 60 questions in 60 minutes leaves no room for getting stuck. Marissa, who scored a 35 composite, teaches students to identify which formula or shortcut each question is really testing so they can move through confidently without burning time on brute-force calculations.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite required Alex to navigate every corner of the Math section, from coordinate geometry and matrix operations to probability and trigonometric identities. He teaches students to recognize which tool each problem demands and how to manage pacing so that the harder questions at the end don't go unanswered. Rated 4.8 by students.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for second-guessing coordinate geometry or trigonometry fundamentals. Jared pulled a 32 composite on the ACT and brings a math minor plus years of engineering problem-solving to his test prep sessions. He drills the specific question patterns — logarithms, matrices, conic sections — that separate a 30 from a 34.
Pacing is the hidden challenge on ACT Math — 60 questions in 60 minutes means there's no time to second-guess a coordinate geometry problem or rethink a trig identity. Roshan scored a 35 ACT and built a triage strategy that teaches students which problems to solve immediately, which to set up and move on from, and which to skip entirely. His lessons zero in on the algebra and functions concepts that appear most frequently across recent exams.
I am a current student at Yale University pursuing a degree in English. Since I was little, writing and storytelling has been one of my biggest passions. Though back then, I often told stories to my friends and family as though they were truth, once they helped me find the page I've had much, much more success. I have been tutoring kids since I was in high school, but I've also spent many hours working with kids on the baseball diamond as a coach, as well as as a camp counselor. My philosophy is that I know how hard and difficult (and sometimes annoying) high school English and History classes can be, and my goal is to try and bring a little fun back into the material while making sure we do what it takes to master your craft as a budding young writer, whether in a rhetorical analysis of Pride and Prejudice or in your CommonApp personal essay.
I am an undergraduate studying Computer Science at the University of Pennsylvania.
Most ACT Math questions below #40 are testing concepts Shalin's students already know — they just dress them up in unfamiliar phrasing. With a 1560 SAT and a bioinformatics background built on statistics and data analysis, he's sharp at teaching students to strip a problem down to the underlying algebra or geometry in seconds, which is what turns a good score into a great one.
I'm recent college graduate with academic experience across the board, including history (my major), data analysis (my minor), music, sociology, Spanish, and math, and I love sharing what I know with other students. Before college, I wrote many a college application essay and took practice test upon practice test for the SAT, SAT subject tests, AP tests, and ACTs. I was greatly helped by my academic mentors back then and would love to help you out now if you need assistance with that process.
Most ACT Math questions hinge on algebra and functions concepts that look harder than they are — the trick is recognizing which tool fits each problem before the clock pressures you into overcomplicating it. Jeremiah's economics degree from Calvin College kept him deep in quantitative reasoning, and his 35 ACT composite means he's personally navigated the pacing and pattern-recognition challenges the section throws at students. Rated 5.0 by students.
Akanksha scored a perfect 36 ACT composite and breaks the Math section down by question type — coordinate geometry, matrices, trigonometric identities, and the logarithm problems that tend to eat up time in the final ten questions. Her approach emphasizes recognizing which formula a problem is actually testing so students can move quickly and confidently through all 60 questions.
Scoring well on ACT Math means recognizing which of the 60 questions deserve your time and which are designed to slow you down. Toni's finance coursework at Rutgers keeps her sharp on the algebra, probability, and data interpretation concepts that dominate the test, and she boosted one student's overall ACT score by 25% through targeted math and strategy work. She holds a 34 ACT composite herself.
While math isn't Noah's primary academic background, his 34 ACT composite means he performed at a high level across all four sections, including the math. He's especially effective with students who consider themselves "humanities people" and need someone who can translate coordinate geometry and trigonometry concepts into plain, logical language.
Scoring a 34 ACT composite means Elijah knows how the Math section escalates — from straightforward algebra and coordinate geometry early on to logarithms, matrices, and trigonometric identities in the final stretch. He breaks down time management so students spend their energy where it actually moves their score. His 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands.
I am looking to tutor in the areas of: Math, English, and for test prep. I was an honors student in High School, scored very well on all my tests, and have now earned a scholarship to go to Rutgers University for the Honors Program.
Pacing decides more ACT Math scores than actual math knowledge — students who can sort a 60-question section into quick wins and time-intensive problems gain a real edge. Eimi scored a 34 composite and drills triage strategies alongside the coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and word-problem skills that appear most frequently.
Scoring a 36 ACT composite while studying engineering at Princeton means Satya has deep fluency with every math concept the ACT tests, from coordinate geometry and logarithms to probability and matrices. He teaches students to identify which tool a problem is really asking for — a skill that shaves minutes off the section and eliminates careless errors. His approach emphasizes triage: knowing which questions to solve algebraically and which to back-solve or plug in.
Most ACT Math questions below #40 are testing pre-algebra and algebra concepts students already know — the problem is speed and recognition under pressure, not missing knowledge. Badri, who scored a 33 ACT composite while studying Health Information Technology at Pitt, drills students on identifying problem types within seconds so they can bank points early and save time for the trickier trigonometry and matrix items at the end. Rated 5.0 by students.
Lauren scored a 34 ACT composite, but her real strength on the math section comes from her education training at Northwestern — she learned how to break down multi-step algebra and geometry problems into the kind of clear, sequenced explanations that make students actually retain the process instead of blanking on test day. She's particularly good at coaching students through the word-problem-heavy middle portion of the section, where translating a scenario into an equation matters more than raw calculation speed. Rated 4.9 by students.
I am a student at Yale University and am pursuing a B.A. in Economics. I have experience tutoring various levels of math and am very passionate about furthering the understanding of students in this subject. I also have a lot of test taking strategies that I have implemented in my own academic life and the practical experience of successfully taking many standardized tests which makes me a great resource for the ACT and SAT.
Emma's computer science degree means she thinks in logic and algorithms — skills that translate surprisingly well to ACT Math, where recognizing the structure of a problem matters more than raw calculation speed. She scored a 34 composite and tutors everything from pre-algebra through calculus, so she can quickly identify which foundational gaps are costing a student points on the trickier geometry and functions questions. Rated 5.0 by students.
Sixty questions in sixty minutes means ACT Math rewards pattern recognition as much as raw skill. Giovanni scored a 33 composite and knows exactly where students lose time — usually on coordinate geometry setups, matrix questions, or tricky logarithm problems buried in the later section. He teaches specific shortcuts for each question type and drills pacing so nothing on test day feels unfamiliar.
I am a second-year Clinical Psychology Doctoral student at Fairleigh Dickinson University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Science in Society. I have been tutoring since I was in high school. I myself took IB Psychology so I understand what it's like! I love teaching so I'm very passionate about tutoring. My favorite parts of psychology are clinical, social, and the history/philosophy behind psychology. Other than psychology I love history and specifically 20th century history.
I am available to tutor middle and high school math, history and test prep. I have tutored math and history in the past and I previously taught a test prep course at a school in Hanoi, Vietnam. I have a lot of experience teaching all the need-to-know tricks to doing great on the SATS/ACTS! When I am not in school myself, I love rowing, equestrian and exploring my new city of Boston! I look forward to meeting and working with you soon!
I am a sophomore at NYU studying computer and data science. Although math is a big part of my life given my major, science, history and English take up very big spaces in my life. I am a voracious reader, taking the time to expand my knowledge in a wide variety of subjects. Fun fact: I was initially a politics major until I became enamored with the way problem solving is presented in computer science! As a result of my wide variety of interests, I am versatile in tutoring any subject (my strength being English, History, and Math). Please do not hesitate to contact me regarding any consultation! I am here for your success.
I am a junior on the pre-med track at the College of William and Mary who is pursuing a major in biology, and a minor in kinesiology and health sciences. Additionally, I self-study Mandarin and am striving to be able to use it abroad one day.
An engineering student who scored a 32 ACT composite, Tyler approaches ACT Math the way he approaches problem sets — by identifying what concept each question is really testing beneath the wording. He's especially strong on the coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and function problems that dominate the later, higher-difficulty questions. Students learn to recognize question patterns quickly so they can allocate time where it counts.
Most of the ACT Math section comes down to algebra and proportional reasoning — concepts Mackenzie reinforced through her political science coursework, which leaned heavily on quantitative data analysis and statistical modeling in international affairs. She scored a 32 ACT composite and teaches students to decode the section's trickier word problems by stripping them down to the underlying operation before touching a calculator.
Speed is the real enemy on ACT Math — students who know the content still run out of time because they solve every problem the long way. Emily teaches strategic shortcuts for the algebra and coordinate geometry questions that dominate the first 40 problems, then tackles the trig and matrices concepts that appear near the end. She scored a 32 ACT composite and knows where every minute should go.
Industrial engineering at Georgia Tech is essentially applied math under pressure — optimization, probability, statistical modeling — which maps neatly onto the algebra, functions, and data questions that fill the ACT Math section. Ilesh pairs that quantitative training with a perfect 36 ACT composite and a pacing approach built around identifying which of the 60 problems deserve full attention and which can be solved in under 30 seconds. Rated 5.0 by students.
The ACT Math section covers everything from pre-algebra ratios to trigonometric identities, and the real challenge is pacing — not just knowing the math but recognizing which approach gets you to the answer fastest. John earned a 36 composite and teaches students to identify problem types on sight so they can allocate time strategically across all 60 questions.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for getting stuck on coordinate geometry or probability problems. Anna earned a perfect 36 ACT composite and teaches a triage strategy — identifying which questions to solve immediately, which to set up and return to, and which to skip strategically. That pacing discipline is often the difference between a 30 and a 34+.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
