Mihir
BA The University of Texas at Austin
1+ Years Tutoring

I'm a Chemical Engineering major at the University of Texas at Austin with a strong passion for teaching. I enjoy helping students in biology, algebra, and chemistry, focusing on building meaningful relationships that make learning engaging and approachable. Teaching not only strengthens my own understanding but also allows me to see the impact of confidence and curiosity in others. Outside of academics, I love staying active through hiking and playing sports like basketball. I also enjoy exploring new food spots, which gives me a chance to connect with different cultures and experiences.

Alison
Certified ACT Tutor
Alison
Current Undergrad, Double-Major in Mathematics and Business with a French Language and Literature Concentration University of Dallas
1+ Years Tutoring

Double-majoring in mathematics and business while carrying a French concentration means Alison's daily coursework mirrors the ACT's full spread — quantitative reasoning, data analysis, and close reading all show up in her classes before they show up on the test. She earned a 35 composite and uses that cross-disciplinary fluency to teach students how the Math section's later questions reward algebraic intuition over brute-force calculation, and how the English section tests a surprisingly small set of grammar rules on repeat.

Jaishri
BA The University of Texas at Austin
4+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 33 composite on the ACT gave Jaishri firsthand insight into the pacing strategies and question patterns that separate a good score from a great one. Her background at the Texas Academy of Math and Science — a rigorous early college program — means she's comfortable breaking down both the Math and Science sections with equal depth, from trigonometry shortcuts to data interpretation under time pressure. She also tackles the English and Reading sections by teaching students to spot the ACT's predictable grammar rules and passage structures.

John
BA University of St Thomas • AS American Academy of Dramatic Arts
16+ Years Tutoring

An English and drama background might not scream ACT prep, but John's 36 composite — a perfect score — means he's mastered every section of the test, and his theater training makes him unusually good at close reading the rhetorical and narrative passages that stall most students on Reading and English. He also tutors calculus, physics, and chemistry, so the Math and Science sections aren't secondary skills he's faking his way through. Rated 4.9 by students.

Sugi
BA Rice University • Doctor of Medicine, Ophthalmic Technology Baylor College of Medicine
5+ Years Tutoring

Medical school admissions committees at both Rice and Baylor trusted Sugi to evaluate candidates — that same ability to spot exactly where someone's reasoning breaks down is what she brings to ACT prep, section by section. Her 36 composite and dual background in cognitive science and biochemistry mean there's no weak link across Math, Science, English, or Reading; she knows the content cold and teaches the decision-making layer on top of it. Rated 5.0 by students.

Alyssa
BA Texas Christian University • Doctor of Science, Physical Therapy Texas Woman's University
4+ Years Tutoring

Alyssa's doctoral work in physical therapy means she's still deep in the kind of scientific reading and data analysis the ACT Science section throws at students — but her psychology minor and 4.0 undergrad GPA point to someone equally comfortable dissecting English passages and tackling the Math section's trickier algebra and trig problems. She earned a 35 composite and builds prep around diagnosing each student's weakest question types first, then drilling those until they stop costing points. Rated 5.0 by students.

Bidyut
BA Johns Hopkins University
8+ Years Tutoring

Bidyut's biomedical engineering and computer science coursework at Johns Hopkins means the ACT's Math and Science sections play to strengths he uses every day — but his tutoring across literature, history, psychology, and essay editing keeps the English and Reading strategies just as sharp. He earned a perfect 36 composite and uses that full-spectrum background to diagnose exactly which question types are costing a student points, then builds targeted drills around those specific weaknesses. Rated 5.0 by students.

Vinson
BA Rice University
6+ Years Tutoring

Computational mathematics at Rice gives Vinson the quantitative backbone for the ACT's Math and Science sections, but his breadth is what makes the difference — he tutors everything from AP Physics to college essays to literature, so English and Reading prep doesn't become an afterthought. He earned a perfect 36 composite and uses that across-the-board fluency to zero in on the specific section mechanics each student needs most, whether that's the grammar patterns recycled in English or the time crunch on the Math section's final fifteen questions.

Jiatian
AB Rice University
8+ Years Tutoring

Scoring well on the ACT is less about mastering five separate subjects and more about learning one skill: how to attack timed, multiple-choice questions with a plan. Jiatian builds individualized study schedules that target each student's weakest sections first, setting concrete score milestones along the way. A Rice University graduate currently finishing medical school, she's taken enough high-stakes exams to know exactly what disciplined, strategic prep looks like in practice.

Eisha
BA The University of Texas at Austin
8+ Years Tutoring

Eisha's public health training at UT Austin means she's comfortable with data tables, experimental design, and evidence-based arguments — the exact skills the ACT Science and Reading sections test under pressure. Her perfect 36 composite score came from treating each section as a distinct set of learnable rules, and she teaches students to diagnose which of those rules they're breaking before drilling targeted fixes. Rated 5.0 by students.

Miguel

10+ Years Tutoring

A dual Computer Science and English degree means Miguel doesn't have a weak half of the ACT — the Math and Science sections tap his quantitative training while the English and Reading sections draw on the close-reading and rhetorical analysis skills his humanities coursework demanded. He earned a 35 composite and uses that balanced background to diagnose exactly which section-specific habits are costing a student points, then drill targeted fixes. Rated 4.9 by students.
