Ethan's environmental science and public policy background means he's spent years reading data-heavy research and building evidence-based arguments — the exact combination the PSAT tests across its reading, writing, and quantitative sections. With a 36 ACT and 1510 SAT, he knows standardized test architecture inside out, and he's especially sharp on the math side, where students who can interpret graphs and reason through word problems without a calculator pull ahead. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a current MBA student at the Yale School of Management who will also be attending UCLA School of Law post-MBA. I've also enjoyed taking standardized tests and "cracking" their code; so I love getting to continue to work on this with my students.

Tessa's math major at Yale means the PSAT's quantitative sections — Heart of Algebra, Passport to Advanced Math, Problem Solving and Data Analysis — play to her strongest skills, and her 1590 SAT confirms she can execute under timed conditions across every section. What sets her apart on the reading and writing side is her history training: she spends her coursework dissecting primary sources and constructing arguments, which is exactly the muscle the evidence-based reading passages test. Rated 4.9 by students.

I'm currently a PhD student in economics at Yale University. I also have a BS in physics and math from Yale. Other subjects I enjoy are history, geography, and philosophy, and I dabble in photography and baking. I enjoy helping people understand tricky concepts and solve challenging problems, academic and otherwise.

James studies paleography at Yale — deciphering old manuscripts trains exactly the close-reading instincts the PSAT's Evidence-Based Reading section rewards when students have to trace an argument through dense, unfamiliar text. His 1590 SAT means the math and writing sections are equally locked in, and he covers everything from Heart of Algebra to grammar-in-context questions with the same precision he brings to reading medieval handwriting. Rated 5.0 by students.

Yale's economics curriculum has Max reading data-dense passages and working through quantitative models daily — both skills that show up constantly on the PSAT's math and evidence-based reading sections. He's particularly sharp on the Heart of Algebra problems and the data-interpretation questions where students need to pull conclusions from tables and graphs without overthinking. His 1580 SAT and 5.0 rating speak for themselves.

Zach's biology training at Yale required the same kind of precise, detail-oriented reading that the PSAT's Evidence-Based Reading section throws at students — dense passages where one misread phrase changes the correct answer. His 1590 SAT means he's operated at the top of the test the PSAT directly mirrors, and he uses that fluency to teach students how to eliminate wrong answers systematically across both the reading and math sections. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a junior at Southern Connecticut State University where I recently transferred to study Exercise Science after completing my first two years at Yale University. I have extensive experience tutoring the SAT/ACT, but my favorite subject to tutor is math. Though it can be a daunting subject for many students, I strive to make math accessible and even enjoyable. In my spare time I enjoy weight training and spoken word poetry.

I am a Yale University graduate with professional teaching experience at the college level. I know the SAT Writing and Reading sections like the back of my hand, and I know English, writing, and history as subjects just the same, but what I know most is how stressful and daunting the college admissions process can be. I am most passionate about helping you succeed in your school and test prep endeavors and to do that, I will teach you the test taking methods, study habits and study tricks that work best for you individually. No cookie-cutters tactics, no frustration. I am here to instruct, support, build confidence, encourage, and most of all, to be a patient guide in getting you where you want to be.

Scoring a 1510 on the SAT means Julia already knows the test family inside and out — and the PSAT rewards the same close-reading and evidence-based reasoning skills at a slightly faster pace. Her background teaching English conversation and grading student writing sharpened her ability to break down the tricky grammar and passage-comparison questions that trip up most PSAT takers. She zeroes in on the specific question types where students lose the most points, from command-of-evidence pairs to no-change answer traps.

I am a Junior at Yale University studying Psychology and Education Studies. I am very passionate about working with kids and pursuing a career in teaching, and my main goal is to help students achieve their full potential!

I am looking to get some more experience tutoring and teaching with the idea of pursuing further academic work in the future.
