Comma splices, misplaced modifiers, redundancy — the ACT English section tests the same handful of grammar and rhetorical skills over and over, and Nicholas has mapped out exactly which ones appear most frequently. He teaches students to spot the patterns quickly so they can move through all 75 questions without rushing. With a 33 ACT composite, he knows firsthand how pacing and rule recognition drive scores up.

Zhenrui earned a perfect 36 ACT composite, which means the English section's trickiest question types — sentence placement, redundancy traps, and transition logic — are territory he's already mapped out cold. His engineering training at Columbia reinforces a rule-first approach: instead of debating what sounds natural, he teaches the specific punctuation and rhetoric patterns the test reuses so students can move through all 75 questions with a clear decision framework.

Scoring a 35 ACT composite while studying Business Communications at Vanderbilt means Jackie lives in the overlap between standardized testing strategy and real editorial skill — she knows the punctuation and rhetoric rules the English section recycles because she applies them daily in her own coursework. She's especially sharp on the passage-level questions about redundancy and paragraph organization, where a trained communicator's instinct for cutting unnecessary words gives students a concrete decision-making framework instead of vague guessing. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm an affable chemistry-loving person whose joy come from delivering knowledge :D

Most ACT English mistakes come from overthinking — students second-guess a correct "NO CHANGE" or add commas where none belong. Michael, who scored a 35 ACT, drills the specific punctuation and sentence structure rules that appear most frequently, then teaches students to trust the simplest, most concise answer choice.

Journalism training at NYU means Sarah edits for a living — cutting filler, tightening transitions, and enforcing parallel structure on deadline, which is essentially what the ACT English section asks you to do 75 times in 45 minutes. Her 35 ACT composite backs up an approach rooted in treating each passage as a rough draft that needs a fast, systematic copyedit rather than a grammar quiz. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am currently attending UCLA School of Dentistry. I have spent a big chunk of my life tutoring. I had 600 hours of volunteer experience tutoring 5th graders in language. I also was the Tutoring Head of the Science National Honor Society in high school and spent every week tutoring high school level biology and chemistry. I spent one summer working at Kumon tutoring children in basic math and reading. In college, I spent two years tutoring adults to pass their GED. I was also an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant (UTA) for a development and physiology biology class, as well as a Peer Tutor for other intro level biology classes. If you chose me as your tutor, I look forward to working with you and helping you be the best student you can be!

I am a 2018 graduate of University of California Santa Barbara, with a B.S. degree in Biological Sciences through the Honors Program. I consider education to be tremendously important not just during development, but also throughout life. I believe it's critical to establish the right attitude toward learning; a feat that once accomplished can improve a student's long-term output in school. Education is an integral part of my career choice: I aspire to become a physician, a career intertwined with knowledge and education. However, teaching and learning are present in every career, and every part of life for that matter.

I am passionate about living life to the fullest and making a difference in the lives of others.

Scoring a 33 ACT composite means Ben already knows how the English section tries to trip students up — especially on rhetorical skills questions where every answer choice is grammatically correct but only one fits the passage's purpose. His English degree and graduate-level philosophy writing give him an intuitive grasp of sentence structure, transitions, and concision that he can make explicit for students still building those instincts.

Punctuation rules and rhetorical strategy questions trip up different students for different reasons — some rush through commas and semicolons, while others second-guess every paragraph-organization question. Christina diagnoses which ACT English question types are costing the most points and drills those patterns until the right answer feels obvious. Her own 34 ACT composite means she's been through the timing pressure firsthand.

I am a recent graduate of Harvard University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with an emphasis on screenwriting. Although I love literature and writing, I am most passionate about tutoring math. I have five years of experience as a math tutor, during which time I helped students ages 3-17 with math ranging from basic arithmetic to pre-calculus. My favorite math topic is algebra, particularly because of its usefulness in solving real-world word problems. In addition to mathematics, I find joy in teaching/elucidating Shakespeare to high-school students. As a classically trained actor, I find it fun to tackle Shakespeare’s dense texts from a performance and character-driven perspective. In my spare time, I enjoy vegan baking and roller-blading.
