Scoring a 34 ACT composite, Ben knows the English section inside out — the way it tests comma rules, verb agreement, and rhetorical strategy in rapid succession. He teaches students to recognize what each question is really asking, which cuts through the temptation to rely on what "sounds right." His background in English and extensive writing experience make grammar and rhetoric second nature.

Scoring a 36 ACT composite while juggling a chemical engineering curriculum at Washington and Lee means Alex learned to read and edit fast — a skill that pays off on the English section's 75 questions in 45 minutes, where hesitation on any single punctuation or rhetoric question eats into the clock. His medical school training at Arizona adds another layer: writing and revising under pressure is now second nature, and he teaches the section's recurring patterns (verb-tense shifts, pronoun agreement, passage-level organization) as a systematic checklist rather than a feel-it-out exercise.
Jacob's psychology and theater training made him a close reader of subtext — figuring out what a sentence is trying to do and whether it's actually doing it, which is the exact skill behind the ACT English section's rhetorical strategy and passage organization questions. His 35 ACT composite and 5.0 rating back up an approach that teaches grammar conventions as a short, memorizable rulebook rather than a guessing game. He's especially sharp on the conciseness questions where students need to recognize that the shortest correct answer is almost always the right one.
Most ACT English mistakes come down to a handful of grammar rules applied inconsistently — comma splices, pronoun-antecedent agreement, and misplaced modifiers account for a huge share of missed points. Lindsay, who scored a 35 composite, teaches students to spot these patterns by reading like an editor rather than a test-taker. Once students learn to hear the error before they see the answer choices, their accuracy and speed both jump.
I'm a performer at heart so I love to sing and dance; however, there's nothing better than a night on the town with a few friends!
Scoring a perfect 36 ACT composite while double-tracking biology and English at Yale gave Alice an unusual editorial range — she's equally comfortable dissecting a dense science passage and tightening a clunky rhetorical transition, which is exactly the versatility the English section demands across its varied passage types. She teaches the punctuation and sentence-structure rules as a short, memorizable system, then drills students on the rhetorical strategy questions where knowing what a passage is *trying to do* matters more than what sounds right.
Most ACT English mistakes come down to five or six grammar patterns — misplaced modifiers, comma rules, parallel structure, verb tense consistency, and wordiness. Gordon drills students on recognizing these patterns at speed, since the 45-minute time limit means decisions need to be almost automatic. He also tackles the rhetorical strategy questions by teaching students to read for paragraph-level purpose, not just sentence-level correctness.
Philosophy taught Galen to say exactly what he means and nothing more — a discipline that maps almost perfectly onto the ACT English section's conciseness and rhetorical strategy questions, where the correct answer is usually the one that cuts the most words without losing meaning. He scored a 34 ACT composite and approaches each passage as an exercise in tightening prose, teaching students the specific punctuation and transition rules the test cycles through so they stop relying on what "sounds right." Rated 5.0 by students.
I'm a graduate of Arizona State University with Barrett, the Honors College. I received my BSE in biomedical engineering in 2022 and I'll finish my education with an MS in 2023. I've tutored math (K-12) since 2016 with an emphasis on algebra and high school test prep concepts. It's never too early or too late to build foundational math skills. I believe a student at any age or level can benefit from practicing core skills while introducing logical and efficient solutions into their math repertoire!
I am not studying or performing research, I enjoy playing video games, card games, or role-playing games with my friends. I also am an amateur engineer, participating in the online community of laser enthusiasts. Together, we construct circuitry, design housings, and align lenses to create not laser pens for pets, but high-powered, scientific lab lasers.
I am music educator passionate about providing you the individualized assistance you require. I believe in providing engaging, real-life applications of concepts to maximize student interest and growth in subject areas.
