I am a student at the Georgia Institute of Technology studying Chemical Engineering. For the past several years, I have worked with students extensively. Through hosting events for younger kids to learn about STEM and for older teens to practice empathetic design, I know the importance of teaching students in ways that engage them rather than frustrate them, which I apply to my teaching. I have tutored high school students in a drop-in resource center in various subjects including math of all levels, chemistry, and English, making me adequately equipped in a variety of topics. I have also tutored several students long-term. Establishing relationships with students and exploring their unique learning styles is my favorite part of tutoring. I prioritize helping students discover HOW to learn in a manner that is the most effective for them, so they can begin to use those skills on their own throughout their education. Learning is a lifelong skill that requires practice for improvement; I strive to help my students gain confidence in their ability to learn.

I am an incoming first year medical student at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora, Colorado. I graduated from the University of Virginia with a BS in Biomedical Engineering. Through the course of my undergraduate career, I served as a teaching assistant for Cell & Molecular Biology and both undergraduate and graduate versions of Introduction to MATLAB. I also have experience volunteering as a tutor from elementary to high school levels. In addition to teaching, I have personal experience with the ACT, SAT, AP, IB, and MCAT exams. I would like to now use my teaching experience to help local students in the subjects I encountered during my undergraduate career. I love teaching and work to make learning as easy as possible by employing games, shortcuts, and gradual build-up so that my students can improve to their desired performance levels.
The ACT English section tests grammar and rhetorical strategy in rapid succession, and most points are lost not on hard rules but on the subtler questions about sentence placement and tone. Rohith's 32 ACT composite included strong performance across all sections, and he teaches students to spot the patterns in punctuation, transitions, and conciseness that the test rewards.
Scoring a 36 ACT composite required mastering the English section's particular blend of grammar rules and rhetorical strategy questions — knowing when a comma splice matters and when the real question is about paragraph organization. Jude approaches each passage type differently, teaching students to distinguish between punctuation-level fixes and big-picture decisions about tone and structure.
I am a neuroscience and psychology double major from CU Boulder working to go to PA school down the road. I am originally from the East coast, but definitely prefer the hiking here. I was a learning assistant (basically student focused teacher aid) at CU, and took a course to learn more effective pedagogy. Afterwards, I was asked to be a mentor, and continued trying to help as much as I can.
Engineering students read instructions literally — which turns out to be the exact mindset for the ACT English section, where "what sounds right" loses to knowing the actual rule behind each comma, transition, or sentence restructure. Christian's 34 ACT composite and his mechanical engineering training at Oklahoma Christian give him a systematic, no-guesswork approach to the grammar conventions and conciseness questions the test leans on hardest. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am a graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry as well as MCD (Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental) Biology while minoring in Chemistry in 2015. I love exploring all of the cool things that this world has to offer. By dabbling in a little of everything I can set my sights on what really holds my attention. My primary interests lie in the sciences, where learning what makes our world turn drives my passion for knowledge.
Most ACT English mistakes come down to three things: comma rules, pronoun agreement, and transitions between ideas. Rosemary drills these high-frequency grammar concepts until students can spot errors at the pace the test demands — roughly 35 seconds per question. She also covers the rhetorical strategy questions that ask whether a sentence should be added, deleted, or moved.
Comma rules, pronoun-antecedent agreement, and rhetorical ordering questions make up the bulk of ACT English — and nearly all of them follow predictable patterns once you know what to look for. Graham scored a 33 ACT composite and walks students through each grammar and rhetoric category so they can spot errors by instinct on test day rather than second-guessing every answer.
I am a undergraduate student who is willing to help other students in subjects that they may be experiencing difficulties in.
Most students tackle ACT English by ear — picking whatever "sounds right" — but Austin treats it as a rule-based game, drilling the dozen or so grammar patterns the test leans on hardest, like comma usage with appositives and pronoun-antecedent agreement. His 33 ACT composite and computer science training at KU mean he's wired to think in systems, which clicks especially well for students who need structure over instinct. Rated 5.0 by students.
Licensed to teach high school and trained in philosophy — a discipline built on constructing airtight arguments — Paige reads ACT English passages the way she'd evaluate a thesis: checking whether every sentence earns its place, whether transitions actually connect ideas, and whether the punctuation follows rules rather than vibes. Her 32 ACT composite and 5.0 rating come from that same blend of rhetorical precision and grammar fundamentals she brings to every session.
Running through the Honors Program in Medical Education at Northwestern meant Anna was writing and editing scientific prose from her first undergraduate year — tightening arguments, cutting redundancy, and enforcing precise punctuation under deadline, which is essentially the ACT English section at higher speed. She scored a 36 ACT composite and teaches the rhetorical strategy questions (paragraph placement, writer's-goal prompts, transition logic) as structured decision trees rather than subjective judgment calls. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am a Yale graduate with over 8 years experience tutoring students from a variety of backgrounds. I recently graduated from the Yale School of Public Health with a MPH concentrating in Epidemiology and Global Health. I also received my B.S. from Yale with a double major in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology and French. I have experience both leading group classes and working with students one on one. I will respond to a student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning style in order to help them succeed and make the most of our time together. I earned a perfect score of 36 on the ACT, 2280 on the SAT, and qualified as a National Merit Scholar on the PSAT. I look forward to working with you!
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
I'm a recent college graduate with degrees in Biological Sciences and Russian from Ohio University. During my time there, I tutored students in a variety of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and Spanish. In addition, I worked as both a peer advisor and teaching assistant, which gives me insight into the learning strategies and study skills that students need to succeed. As a tutor, I like to focus on doing actual problems with students because it is the most effective way to immediately identify their strengths and weaknesses and to address them. In my free time, I like to lift weights, read books, and spend time with my friends.
I am 22 years old and just graduated from the University of Kentucky with a double degree in French and Biochemistry. I have been a tutor for over a year now at UK's tutoring center. I believe that anyone can learn anything with enough practice and encouragement, and I love helping students overcome challenges and gain more self-confidence!
Scoring a perfect 36 ACT composite means Sharan didn't just survive the English section — she mastered the specific rhythm of its 75 questions in 45 minutes, where hesitating on even a few rhetorical strategy questions can tank your pacing. Her premed coursework at Cornell keeps her writing tight and evidence-driven daily, and she applies that same discipline to teaching the punctuation and conciseness patterns the test loves to recycle. Rated 5.0 by students.
The ACT English section looks deceptively easy until students realize it's testing precise grammar rules — comma splices, subject-verb agreement across long clauses, and rhetorical strategy questions that require reading like an editor. Aleeza earned a 36 composite and treats this section as a set of learnable patterns, drilling the specific conventions that appear most frequently so students stop second-guessing their answers.
Most ACT English mistakes come down to a handful of grammar and rhetoric patterns that repeat across every test. Benjamin, who scored a 36 composite and studies English at Columbia, drills students on the specific punctuation rules, transition logic, and concision principles that the ACT actually tests — so nothing on test day feels unfamiliar.
I'm not tutoring, I love walking through New York for design inspiration and taking carpentry, metalworking, and illustration classes.
The IB program drills a particular kind of writing discipline — structured arguments, precise language, relentless editing — and Vansh carried that training straight into his aerospace engineering work at Georgia Tech, where technical writing leaves zero room for ambiguity. That combination makes him especially sharp on the ACT English questions testing conciseness and sentence placement, where students need to cut wordiness and reorganize logic under time pressure rather than just fix punctuation. His 36 ACT composite and 5.0 rating back it up.
I am an aspiring applied mathematician, with particular interest in image processing and climate science. I graduated in May 2017 from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelor's in physics and mathematics, and am beginning a PhD program in September 2017 at the University of Chicago in Computational and Applied Mathematics. I've tutored introductory physics students for three years and enjoyed it thoroughly, as a chance to help other students while revisiting fundamental concepts to enhance my own knowledge. I'm eager to continue reaching out and helping students of math and physics to succeed and, furthermore, to appreciate the beauty and power of these subjects.
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.
