Elliot
Elliot earned a 36 ACT composite, and his approach to the English section zeroes in on the handful of grammar rules — comma splices, modifier placement, parallelism, pronoun agreement — that appear on nearly every test form. Beyond mechanics, he also tackles the rhetorical strategy questions, teachi...

Danielle
Three semesters teaching ESL to Hispanic immigrants and refugees through Tufts gave Danielle something most ACT English tutors lack — experience breaking English grammar rules down for people who genuinely don't know them yet, rather than just reminding native speakers what "sounds right." That foun...

Most ACT English mistakes come down to a handful of recurring grammar patterns — comma splices, pronoun-antecedent agreement, and misplaced modifiers show up on nearly every test. Olivia drills students on recognizing these patterns at speed, which is what turns a good score into a great one. Her ow...

Juliette
Fluency in French grammar gives Juliette an unusual edge on the ACT English section — when you've internalized how another language handles verb agreement, pronoun reference, and sentence structure, spotting those same patterns (and errors) in English becomes almost reflexive. She scored a 35 ACT co...

Naomi
A year spent teaching English to Indonesian coworkers and students of all ages gave Naomi a sharp sense for how grammar rules actually land — which ones trip people up, which ones click once you see the pattern. She brings that instinct to the ACT English section's punctuation and sentence structure...

Mary
Scoring a 35 ACT composite means Mary knows how the English section tests grammar rules in context — comma splices buried in long passages, subject-verb agreement across clauses, and rhetorical strategy questions that trip up even strong writers. She breaks each question type into a pattern so stude...

Jennifer
Critical reading for a materials science career means parsing dense technical prose daily — Jennifer applies that same analytical eye to ACT English passages, teaching students to spot redundancy, weak transitions, and punctuation errors as structural problems rather than vibes-based guesses. Her 33...

Amanda
Scoring well on ACT English is less about knowing obscure grammar rules and more about recognizing the 15–20 patterns the test recycles — comma splices, subject-verb agreement across long clauses, and rhetorical ordering questions. Amanda earned a 34 ACT composite and has spent years editing student...

Zora
Having scored a 35 ACT composite while training as both a writing teacher and a special education specialist, Zora knows that strong grammar instincts aren't enough — students need to recognize what each question is actually testing, whether it's punctuation, sentence boundaries, or rhetorical choic...

Spencer
Scoring a 35 ACT composite while deep in a biomedical engineering program means Spencer already toggles between technical writing and standardized-test logic daily — he treats the English section's punctuation and rhetoric questions like circuit diagrams, where every comma and transition has a speci...
