I am a Neuroscience and Behavior major at Columbia University. Although my major is centered in the STEM field, I am also passionate about human rights work, global engagement, and local outreach. While my future plans are subject to change, I see myself continuing in academia, going to medical school, and becoming a physician.

Most ACT Math questions reward quick recognition over deep calculation — and Vivian, who scored a 36 composite, teaches students to identify which of the 60 problems are algebra in disguise and which actually require trig or coordinate geometry knowledge. Her approach emphasizes eliminating answer choices strategically on the harder back-third items while building enough speed on the routine ones to bank time. Rated 4.9 by students.

Scoring a 33 ACT composite, Justin knows the math section's particular challenge: it's not that any single problem is hard, but that 60 questions in 60 minutes leaves zero room for hesitation. 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.

A year as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave Richard a deep bench of ways to explain concepts when the first approach doesn't click. On ACT Math, he zeroes in on the topics that appear most frequently in the 50s and 60s — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, matrices, and logarithms — where most students leave points on the table. His 36 composite confirms he can execute under the test's tight time pressure.

Scoring well on ACT Math isn't about knowing advanced topics — it's about solving 60 questions in 60 minutes without getting stuck. Aaron earned a 36 composite and teaches students to recognize problem types on sight, particularly the coordinate geometry and trigonometry questions that tend to slow people down in the final third of the section.

Scoring well on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, so speed matters as much as accuracy — especially on the algebra and coordinate geometry problems that make up the bulk of the test. Michelle teaches students to identify which problems to solve quickly, which to set up strategically, and which to skip and return to. Her 35 ACT composite and her experience across algebra and calculus give her a clear sense of where students lose the most points.

Hi! My name is Alexandra, and I am a Princeton University Neuroscience major with 5+ years of tutoring experience. I specialize in SAT/ACT/PSAT prep and have successfully taught topics ranging from computer science and basic sciences to elementary reading and writing and college essay writing. In high school, I scored a perfect 36 on the ACT on my first attempt, a perfect 1520 on the PSAT/NMSQT, won "finalist" status in the National Merit Scholarship competition, and was a medalist in the New York Science Olympiad. As an undergraduate at the top-ranked university, I focus specifically on standardized test preparation, including the SAT, ACT, and PSAT. I have an understanding of the structure and timing of the exams and the strategic approaches that are required to achieve top scores. I have successfully supported students in improving their performance through individualized study plans because I understand that not all students can use the same approaches to succeed. My approach emphasizes effective time management and a mastery of recurring question types. Outside of college test preparation, I have tutored students ages 5 to 17 in a variety of topics. A common teaching approach I use is to introduce new concepts with example problems that we work through together. I then explain each strategy and help the student through another problem, encouraging them to explain their thinking step by step. Finally, I let the student tackle a problem independently. Once a student can articulate why a method works, they are truly ready to apply it on their own. While this method suits many students, I understand that everyone learns differently and pride myself on being adaptable within and outside of lessons.

I'm a recent Stanford graduate (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science), and have been working at a major Management Consulting firm for a few years now. I personally scored a 2360 (out of 2400) on the SAT and 35 on the ACT and was successful in gaining admission to several top universities. I'm looking forward to helping you improve your scores towards improving your chances at getting in to your dream school.

I am originally from Alabama and graduated from Birmingham-Southern College with a BA in English Language and Literature. Immediately after undergrad, I relocated to New York City to pursue my law degree at Fordham University. After earning my Juris Doctor and passing the NY bar exam, I worked for five years as a litigator in New York. In 2009, I took the opportunity to fulfill a lifetime dream to live abroad and moved to South America. Upon arriving in Chile, I worked as an ESL teacher for children and adults as well as an editor of investment research and corporate trainer. I love language and am passionate about helping others learn to speak, write and read in a more effective way. Language is a tool, and I truly believe anyone can learn to use it better. I'm excited to be back in the US and eager to work with motivated students.

One thing that trips students up on ACT Math is the sheer range: the test jumps from basic proportions to trigonometric identities within the same section. Emma, a Harvard neurobiology graduate who minored in economics, tackles this by teaching students to identify which of the 60 questions deserve their time and which to flag and revisit. Her structured pacing strategy is especially effective for students scoring in the mid-20s who want to break into the 30s.

Scoring well on ACT Math means handling everything from pre-algebra ratios to trigonometric identities within a single 60-minute sprint. Grace earned a 35 ACT composite and breaks the math section into targetable skill clusters, so students spend their prep time on the specific question types — coordinate geometry, logarithms, matrices — that will move their score the most.

Finance majors live in algebra, probability, and data interpretation — the same skill set that covers roughly two-thirds of ACT Math questions — so Vansh can teach the underlying logic behind each problem type rather than just drilling formulas. His 35 ACT composite means he's personally navigated the pacing pressure of the 60-question section and knows which shortcuts actually hold up under time constraints. Rated 4.8 by students.
