I am not providing answers, rather helping you explore your own. I am double majoring in English and Psychology going into my senior year, with hopes to become a speech pathologist after completes my undergraduate degrees.

Philosophy trained Michael to spot logical structure in messy arguments, and he applies that same instinct to SAT Math — especially the word-heavy algebra problems where most points are lost before a student even picks up a pencil. His neuroscience background at Scranton means he's comfortable with the data-interpretation and statistics questions that round out the test, and his 1440 SAT confirms he knows the pacing and traps firsthand. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.

I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.

A math degree from Georgetown plus a 1580 SAT means Peter doesn't just know the content — he knows which algebraic shortcuts and graph-reading strategies actually save time under pressure. He breaks the SAT Math section into pattern categories so students recognize problem types within seconds and spend their energy solving, not deciphering. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a first year medical student at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. I have been a private tutor in the past in subjects such as math, biology, chemistry, and the SATs and every single one of my more than twenty students have shown significant improvement. Most importantly, I have a passion for teaching, and your needs and preferences as the learner will always be paramount. I hope to help every one of my students reach every bit of their potential, and along the way, to utterly shatter any self-induced limitations that have been placed upon what they can accomplish.

I am in my second year at MIT studying mathematics, and I am currently doing a research project in Spectral Graph Theory. I have been a tutor since my junior year in high school, and I enjoy teaching all levels of math; everything from pre-algebra through calculus and linear algebra! I focus primarily on making sure that the definitions and processes given in class make intuitive sense, so that math can begin to feel like second nature.

Three semesters teaching ESL gave Danielle an unusually sharp instinct for breaking down dense, wordy problems — a skill that pays off on SAT Math, where half the battle is translating a convoluted setup into a clean equation before any calculating begins. Her 1550 SAT and biology-to-med-school math background mean she's fluent in the geometry, statistics, and algebraic reasoning the test actually emphasizes. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am currently studying molecular biology and I hope to work at a pediatric hospital after graduating from medical school. As an undergraduate, I am involved in volunteering organizations, photography, dance companies, and Asian-American political organizations.

Scoring a 1550 on the SAT, Mahitha went through intensive prep and came away with specific strategies for the Math section — particularly for the no-calculator portion, where number sense and algebraic shortcuts matter most. She passes along the timing techniques and problem-type recognition that moved her own score up, rather than relying on generic practice alone.

I am a senior with a Neuroscience major at Swarthmore College. My favorite subjects include Biology and Psychology. I am interested in teaching students how to develop a better grasp of their academic material, improve their learning skills, and succeed in whatever course they take. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy playing violin, reading, and traveling. I also have extensive community service experience and have traveled to China, Kenya, and the Dominican Republic to engage in volunteer work.

I'm currently pursuing an MFA in Creative Writing at Temple University. I love working with children and young adults, and I'm thrilled to be spending some time tutoring this spring.

I am friendly, reliable, and most importantlycommitted to helping you learn! It is my top priority to create a positive learning experience that will help boost your test scores without boring you to tears. After all, shouldn't learning be fun?

Matthew scored a 1580 on the SAT, and his approach to the Math section is built around recognizing which of the ~15 recurring problem types you're looking at before you start solving. He's particularly effective at demystifying the harder passport-to-advanced-math questions — quadratic and exponential reasoning, systems with no solution — that separate a 700 from an 800. His background as the child of two math professors means explaining quantitative concepts clearly is practically genetic.

Scoring 1580 on the SAT gave Kate firsthand knowledge of the traps the math section sets — especially on those final grid-in questions where a misread of a quadratic or a sign error on an inequality costs critical points. She breaks the section into concept clusters like functions, ratios, and data analysis so students know exactly where their weak spots are. Each session targets specific problem types rather than generic review.

Scoring a 1560 on the SAT, Ben knows exactly where the math section tries to trip students up — especially on systems of equations, quadratic modeling, and data interpretation questions that look harder than they are. He teaches a problem-solving approach that emphasizes identifying question types quickly so students spend their time on execution, not confusion. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm a recent graduate from Brown University where I studied Linguistics and French. I teach French at all levels, including AP and SAT subject test prep. I started learning French when I was 5 and it's been an important part of my life so I hope to help others appreciate the language as much as I do! I studied abroad in Senegal, West Africa where I spoke nothing but French for a semester. In college I was a French TA for several semesters.

Ryan scored 1510 on the SAT and brings an engineer's precision to the Math section — breaking down multi-step word problems, data analysis questions, and passport-to-advanced-math items into repeatable strategies. He teaches students to spot which concept each question is really testing, which cuts through the SAT's tendency to disguise straightforward algebra and geometry behind tricky wording.

I'm a recent Georgetown University graduate originally from San Diego, CA. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Human Science, and I graduated with Honors with Distinction. While at Georgetown, I completed the pre-medical track and minored in Math. I'm an experienced standardized test taker, and I am passionate about helping students achieve their academic potential! I have tutored elementary school through college students in reading comprehension, math, SAT prep, and chemistry, and even started an afterschool engineering program for elementary school students. I am a strong proponent of framing intelligence as a muscle that is strengthened over time rather than an innate characteristic. While I'm not tutoring, I enjoy cooking, reading, and playing with dogs.

I am most passionate about music, French, and English. I love the potential for communication and creativity that languages and the arts provide.

I'm interested in running, reading, and teaching overseas someday in the future.

Scoring 1590 on the SAT means Katherine lost almost nothing on the math sections, and she's turned that into a repeatable method for tackling both the Heart of Algebra and Passport to Advanced Math question categories. She zeroes in on the specific question types a student consistently misses — whether that's systems of inequalities, quadratic modeling, or data interpretation — and drills those until they become automatic.

Mary's chemistry TA work at Pitt means she's spent a year and a half watching students make algebraic errors in real time — sign flips, distribution mistakes, sloppy fraction work — which are exactly the mistakes that cost points on SAT Math's no-calculator section. She scored a 1550 on the SAT herself and uses that experience to teach students how to attack the quadratic and systems questions methodically instead of rushing to an answer. Rated 4.8 by students.

Naomi scored a 1480 on the SAT and breaks the Math section down by question type — heart of algebra, passport to advanced math, and problem solving with data analysis — so students know exactly where to focus their prep time. She teaches efficient strategies for grid-in questions and multi-step word problems that cut through the noise and get to the math quickly.

I am a college instructor with ten years experience in the classroom as a teacher and tutor. Originally from South Carolina, I went to school in Pennsylvania and currently live in Alabama. I believe that students learn best through practice and approaching learning through a relaxed lens, thinking about the larger, structural questions behind their concerns in order to gain a broader and more inclusive understanding of the subject matter. My tutoring philosophy stems from the belief that students and tutors are peers, and that collaboration is the best means for students to learn, not just reciting or memorizing what I might suggest. Working together, and making sure students take ownership and pride in their work, leads to a stronger educational foundation, both in our tutoring sessions and the student's future.

Scoring 1550 on the SAT required Jennifer to master the specific math the College Board emphasizes — passport-to-advanced-math questions involving polynomial manipulation, quadratic-linear systems, and function transformations. She unpacks each problem type with shortcuts picked up from her own engineering coursework, giving students efficient strategies that hold up when the clock is ticking.

The SAT Math section rewards students who can translate word problems into clean algebra — and that translation step is where most points get lost. Meghan, who scored a 1510 composite and went on to complete a biology degree heavy in statistics and calculus, teaches students to identify what each question is actually asking before touching their calculator. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am well schooled in academic writing and reading comprehension; furthermore, I have honed my ability to write pointed, direct essays for both applications and classes. After studying French in high school, I went on to spend over six months in France working on archaeological excavations. As a previous educator for high school students, I am versed in different learning styles and can't wait to work with more. It sounds trite, but it's true--I love teaching, and consider it both a privilege and a real pleasure. I look forward to helping more students achieve their academic goals!

I am currently a second year medical student. I was a Physiological Sciences major at UCLA (class of 2015), and pursued research during my gap year between undergrad and medical school.

Cindy scored a 1540 on the SAT and knows exactly where the math section tries to trip students up — from misread word problems in the Heart of Algebra questions to tricky passport-to-advanced-math items involving polynomial division and quadratic manipulation. She teaches students to spot these patterns quickly so they can bank time for the harder grid-ins. Rated 5.0 by students.

Coursework in organic chemistry, physics, and neuroscience at NJIT's accelerated BA/MD program means Harry solves quantitative problems under pressure daily — and he channels that into SAT Math by teaching students to break multi-step algebra and geometry questions into smaller, manageable pieces before solving. He's especially useful for students who understand the underlying math but need to get faster and more systematic on test day, building the kind of disciplined setup habits that prevent careless errors on timed sections.

Spencer earned a 1550 SAT and brings an engineer's precision to the Math section, particularly the no-calculator portion where algebraic fluency with quadratics, systems, and rational expressions matters most. He walks through each problem type's underlying logic so students recognize what's being tested before they start solving.

Scoring 1480 on the SAT himself, Conor knows exactly where the math section tries to trip students up — especially on problems that disguise straightforward algebra inside wordy, multi-step scenarios. He teaches students to translate those word problems into equations quickly and to spot the no-calculator questions that reward clever reasoning over brute computation. His approach is systematic enough to drill but flexible enough to adapt to each student's weak spots.

Mathematical economics at Temple means Andreas spends his days building and solving the exact types of equations — linear systems, inequalities, functions — that the SAT Math section leans on hardest. His 1550 SAT gives him a tested sense of which shortcuts actually work under time pressure, especially on the "Heart of Algebra" and "Passport to Advanced Math" questions that together drive most of the score. Rated 4.8 by students.

Scoring a 1550 on the SAT required Anita to master the exact blend of algebra, data analysis, and advanced math concepts that the test emphasizes — and she now teaches students to recognize which tool each problem demands. She's especially sharp on the no-calculator section, where comfort with manipulating expressions and setting up equations by hand makes the biggest difference. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm Alex, a 28-year old with a passion for teaching science and for helping students conquer standardized tests. Since I began working as a physics, math, and SAT tutor with Varsity Tutors in 2011, I've found it incredibly rewarding to help my students develop sustainable study habits and realize their academic potential. I believe that a student's performance is largely influenced by their weekly study routine, and I make it a priority to help my students figure out a process that works well for them.

I am anticipating starting a master's program in the fall. When I'm not working I enjoy playing and watching basketball, reading and exercise. I love learning and I am eager to share my skills and knowledge with others.

I'm a recent college graduate living in West Philadelphia. I graduated from Oberlin College in May of 2015, where I majored in Environmental Studies and minored in Politics. I love to play music, dance, make art and play basketball with my friends. I'm passionate about youth education and mentoring and I think everyone deserves the opportunity for a quality education. I have been tutor with Varsity Tutors for over a year, and volunteered as a tutor with the National Honor Society and Let's Get Ready - an organization that offers free SAT-prep for underserved youth. I love to tutor in social studies, humanities, and life sciences, and have a lot of experience in tutoring for AP and SAT tests. My basic outlook on education is that 1. Everyone is intelligent and capable of learning 2. People have diverse interests and passions 3. Everyone learns in a unique way. If we spend our time following our passions and figuring out what learning style works best for us, than our education can be transformative. One of the primary problems of our education system is the lack of individualized learning time, and personal relationship building between teacher and student. I think we tend to use a one size fits all approach with education because our schools and teachers don't have the time or resources to respond to the needs of every student. I believe that 1-on-1 tutoring, mentoring and education is essential for developing learning practices that are effective for you. I'm excited to work with you!
