AP Physics 1 Tutor • +30 Subjects
I graduated Amherst College summa cum laude with a degree in neuroscience in 2014. After graduating I completed a master's degree in biochemistry at the University of Cambridge in England. I then worked as self-employed tutor for a few months before starting a teaching fellowship in Colombia, where I taught high school English. I am currently interviewing for medical school for matriculation in August 2017.I have a variety of teaching and tutoring experiences, including working as a self-employed tutor, an organic chemistry teaching assistant, and a high school English teacher. I primarily tutor math, science, the MCAT, and Spanish. I recognize that success in school depends on study habits and techniques as much as understanding material, so I try to include as many study tips as I can in my sessions. In my free time I enjoy running, reading, and listening to music.

Sidra
10th Grade Math Tutor • +39 Subjects
I have always had a passion for tutoring. I have tutored my siblings in a variety of subjects. I believe that Tutors should be concerned about finding the most suitable method of delivering information to students, since each one has a different way of retaining information. I strive to do that for all of my students. I am also very patient and persistent. I put a great effort into explaining concepts until they are well understood.My method is basically dependent upon breaking down a concept into several smaller ideas. Some students might feel devastated or hopeless when it comes to a particular subject, so, I try to enhance their morale and attitude, giving them hope of improvement over the course of tutoring with me.

Teaching brings the potential to inspire. By sharing passions and knowledge, one can spread joy and spark creativity, as another discovers new aspects of life. The excitement that comes with learning something fascinating or overcoming a difficult problem is what drives inspiration. The confidence that can be gained from learning can also inspire others to reach greater heights that might have been previously thought not possible. As a tutor, I strive to share my knowledge and passions with my students so that they can find the same joy that I feel, as I act as a stepping stone for their success. My mission is to prioritize the goals of the student. I will do so by identifying and supplementing the strengths of my students and using those strengths to teach the student how their skills can be used to overcome challenges or weaknesses. I have held many leadership positions at my time at the University of Illinois, such as assistant manager and acting as service chair in the pre-professional organization, Phi Delta Epsilon. These have taught me valuable leadership skills so that I can act as a leader amongst my peers. Finally, I have a wealth of knowledge acquired from earning my degree at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Having graduated with a degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology with a minor in Chemistry while on the pre-med track, I have acquired knowledge and techniques to pass onto students through a wide range of science courses. The hours I have spent dedicated toward working on my goal of becoming a physician has taught me various stress-coping mechanisms, study skills, and many other useful tips and tricks that I can pass onto my students. Ultimately, I hope that my dedication to my students will supplement their goals and provide anything that can help them get to where they want to be.

Sarah
Algebra Tutor • +17 Subjects
I am a graduate of The George Washington University in Washington DC. I received my Bachelor of Science in Systems Engineering with minors in Computer Science and Economics. I also received my Master of Science in Engineering Management with a concentration in Crisis Emergency and Risk Management. During both my undergraduate and graduate experiences, I often tutored my classmates and helped them with challenging subjects like Calculus and Physics. Since graduation, I have helped coworkers who were going back to school with subjects like Pre-algebra and Algebra. I am passionate about math and helping students establish a solid foundation in pre-algebra and algebra. I am willing to patiently work with students – explaining topics from multiple perspectives – to ensure we build a strong base. I believe that foundation not only makes a student successful in the current class but enables him or her to do well in future advanced math classes (e.g., calculus). In my spare time, I enjoy reading (especially dystopian literature!), traveling, running, exercising, spending time with my family and watching college football.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and study effort, but most students see measurable gains within 4-8 weeks of consistent preparation. Students who work with tutors typically improve their weakest sections most significantly—often 3-5 points or more on individual subtests. The key is identifying which sections (Math Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Mechanical Aptitude, etc.) are holding you back and targeting those areas with focused practice and strategy refinement.
The ASVAB has 9 subtests: Arithmetic Reasoning, Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Mathematics Knowledge, Electronics Information, Auto and Shop Information, Mechanical Comprehension, Assembling Objects, and Verbal Expression. Most students find Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge challenging because they require both speed and accuracy under time pressure. Paragraph Comprehension and Mechanical Comprehension also trip up many test-takers. A tutor can help you identify your specific weak areas through practice tests and develop targeted strategies for each section.
Timing is critical on the ASVAB because you have limited minutes per section. The most effective strategy is to practice full-length, timed practice tests repeatedly so you build speed without sacrificing accuracy. Tutors help you learn which question types to tackle first, when to skip difficult questions and return later, and how to avoid getting stuck on any single problem. With consistent timed practice, you'll develop an intuition for pace that lets you answer more questions correctly within the time limit.
Practice tests serve two critical purposes: they reveal which sections and question types give you trouble, and they build familiarity with the test format and time constraints so you're not caught off guard on test day. Taking multiple practice tests under real timing conditions helps you calibrate your pacing strategy and reduces test anxiety. Many students find that their practice test scores improve consistently as they review their mistakes and reinforce weak concepts—this is where a tutor's feedback on why you missed questions becomes invaluable.
Most students benefit from 4-12 weeks of preparation, depending on their starting score and target branch/job requirements. If you're scoring well already, 4-6 weeks of focused review may be enough. If you need to improve math or reading skills significantly, 8-12 weeks allows time to build foundational knowledge alongside test-specific strategy. A tutor can assess your baseline with a practice test and create a realistic timeline tailored to your goals and study schedule.
Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the format and uncertainty about whether you're prepared. The best antidote is repeated exposure: taking full-length practice tests until the format feels routine removes a major source of anxiety. Working with a tutor also helps because you get personalized feedback showing exactly what you can do well, which builds confidence. Additionally, tutors can teach you test-day strategies—like deep breathing, positive self-talk, and time management tactics—that give you concrete tools to stay calm under pressure.
For math (Arithmetic Reasoning and Mathematics Knowledge), the strategy is to solve problems quickly without a calculator by recognizing common question patterns and using shortcuts. For reading (Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension), you need strong vocabulary and the ability to extract key information fast. A tutor can teach you section-specific techniques: for math, recognizing when to estimate or work backwards; for reading, how to skim strategically and identify what each question is really asking. Practice with instant feedback on why answers are right or wrong accelerates mastery of these strategies.
