Alice
Certified PSAT Tutor
Alice
BA Union College
4+ Years Tutoring

Alice's biology pre-med coursework at Union College keeps her sharp on the data-interpretation and quantitative reasoning questions that dominate the PSAT's math sections, while her 1550 SAT confirms she's mastered the full test architecture the PSAT mirrors. Where she really stands out is timing strategy — she teaches students to identify which question types to attack first in each section so they stop leaving easy points on the table. Rated 5.0 by students.

Sameer
BA University of Washington
1+ Years Tutoring

Because the PSAT mirrors the SAT's structure but serves as most students' first encounter with high-stakes standardized testing, building smart pacing habits early matters more than content review alone. Sameer walks students through timed section practice with a focus on when to skip, when to estimate, and how to eliminate answers efficiently across both the math and reading-writing modules.

Angela
Current Undergrad, Environmental Science Northeastern University
1+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 1500 on the SAT means Angela already knows the exact question styles and content the PSAT throws at students — since both tests share the same format, just at different difficulty levels. She zeroes in on the evidence-based reading questions and grammar conventions that tend to trip up sophomores and juniors seeing them for the first time. Rated 5.0 by students, she also builds pacing strategies so no section feels rushed on test day.

Xiansheng
BA University of California-Berkeley
6+ Years Tutoring

Xiansheng's cellular and molecular biology training built the kind of quantitative reasoning and dense-text parsing that the PSAT tests across both its math and evidence-based reading sections. He uses his 1450 SAT experience to walk students through the specific algebra and data-interpretation question types that repeat on every form, while his bilingual background in Mandarin sharpens his ear for the grammar-in-context problems that native English speakers often overthink. Rated 4.7 by students.

Antonia
BA University of Washington
1+ Years Tutoring

The PSAT matters more than students realize — it's the qualifying exam for National Merit, and the scoring scale is unforgiving at the top. Antonia treats PSAT prep as early SAT training, covering everything from evidence-based reading strategies to no-calculator algebra techniques so students build habits that pay off twice. Her experience tutoring across K-12 subjects means she can adapt quickly whether a student needs help with reading comprehension, grammar conventions, or quadratic word problems.

Ritik
BA Purdue University-Main Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior at Purdue University studying Aerospace Engineering and am part of the Air Force ROTC program. I have 6 years of tutoring experience at places including Kumon, Mathnasium, and Purdue University. I have worked with kids of all ages from kindergarten to sophomores in college, each with their own set of unique strengths, and tutored a variety of subjects, including calculus, trigonometry, geometry, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics. Like many of my previous students, I struggled to understand concepts that I was being taught and was a terrible test taker. However, I found ways to overcome my obstacles and develop an better intuition for what I was learning. I believe that it is only this intuition and understanding that helps overcome these obstacles. My least favorite thing to see people be discouraged, so with a little bit of guidance and reassurance, I want to show people that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.

I am comfortable, however, with upper level math classes (such as calculus), and science courses (biology, chemistry, and physics). I am in the process of applying to medical school as well. I have been fortunate to have already been accepted into a couple of schools. I would love to help you prepare for the MCATs and get a head start on your medical school application. I think this one-on-one tutoring model can be a powerful study method in preparing you for success in both the classroom and on standardized tests. In my spare time, I enjoy skiing, running, playing board games, and performing/learning magic tricks!

Nishad
BA Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus
1+ Years Tutoring

As a med student at Thomas Jefferson, Nishad reads dense scientific passages under time pressure every day — the same core skill the PSAT's Evidence-Based Reading section tests with unfamiliar social science and natural science passages. His 1580 SAT means he's already dominated the test the PSAT is built from, and his premed background keeps him sharp on the quantitative side, particularly the data-interpretation and Heart of Algebra questions that make up the bulk of the math sections.

Joey
BA Columbia University in the City of New York
9+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Columbia University with a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts. I taught math and essay writing to my peers in high school and college, and have tutored a close friend in her mathematics courses since junior year of high school. I am most comfortable and passionate about tutoring SAT prep, particularly the Math section and subject tests. I believe in supporting and encouraging my students and making material as accessible as possible, breaking down what may be difficult subject matter into terms and concepts that they already understand. I firmly believe in the potential of every student to grasp material that they may think is out of reach, and aim to reduce the stress factor of studying as much as possible. Outside of tutoring, I am a professional actor and playwright, and in my free time (a rare, mystical thing these days) I enjoy playing guitar and mandolin, practicing yoga, and my PS4.

Emily's double major in biology and French at Yale means she's spent years toggling between scientific data analysis and close literary reading — the exact split the PSAT tests across its math and Evidence-Based Reading sections. Her perfect 36 ACT and 1550 SAT confirm she knows how standardized tests work at every level, and she uses that experience to teach the specific pacing and elimination strategies that keep students from running out of time on the Writing and Language section.

Kiersten
BA University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior studying Writing for Screen and Television at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts. For the past two spring semesters I worked as a CollegeSpring Mentor, tutoring Green Dot Charter high school juniors for the SAT and teaching them predatory skills for college. In addition to my experience tutoring for the SAT, as a screenwriting major I most enjoy teaching my favorite subject, English. I love showing students the power language endows upon them to communicate their ideas and beliefs with others. I believe every student deserves the chance to succeed and to try to capitalize on their strengths while encouraging them to improve in areas they may traditionally find challenging. Endowing a student with confidence in themselves through patience and support is the best way not only to improve academic performance, but also transform them into lifelong learners. I try to share not only my passion for knowledge with students, but also my love of sports (football, baseball, and softball), action films, and global affairs. Seeing students not only improve academically but also show improved confidence and happiness is the most rewarding part of my job.

Keith

Political science at Williams meant Keith spent four years constructing tight, evidence-backed arguments — the exact skill the PSAT's Writing and Language section tests when it asks students to evaluate sentence placement, strengthen claims, and choose the most effective phrasing in context. His 1560 SAT shows he can execute across all sections under pressure, and his additional strength in math means he covers the algebra-heavy no-calculator questions with the same confidence he brings to passage analysis.
