Scoring a 1420 SAT himself, John knows the math section rewards strategic thinking as much as raw skill — recognizing when to backsolve, when to plug in values, and when to set up an equation from scratch. He digs into the specific algebra and data-analysis question types that trip students up most, like systems of equations embedded in word problems or interpreting scatterplot models. His teaching spans algebra through calculus, so no SAT math concept is outside his comfort zone.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

Scoring a 1590 on the SAT gave Alex a sharp sense of how the math section actually works — which algebra, data analysis, and passport-to-advanced-math concepts appear most often and where the test sets traps with misleading answer choices. He teaches students to identify problem types within seconds and apply efficient strategies, especially on the no-calculator section where procedural fluency matters most.

I'm Anna! I'm currently a student in the MD/MBA program between Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine and the Kellogg School of Management, and graduated from Northwestern University as part of the Honors Program in Medical Education. I attended the Bergen County Academies in New Jersey, a selective, application-based magnet school, for high school.

I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.

Elena's government and Spanish degrees might not scream math, but her perfect 1600 SAT composite says otherwise — she knows exactly how the College Board structures its math section to reward careful reading and algebraic precision over raw computational speed. Her law school training in spotting flawed reasoning carries over to the SAT's trap answer choices, where she teaches students to eliminate options that exploit common misreadings of the problem setup. Rated 4.9 by her students.

I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

Scoring a 1570 on the SAT required Michelle to navigate every corner of the math section — from quadratic modeling to data interpretation and systems of inequalities. She teaches students to recognize which strategy a problem is really testing, cutting through the wording to find the fastest path to the answer.

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.

Scoring a 1550 on the SAT, Dennis knows exactly where the SAT Mathematics section tries to trip students up — especially on data analysis questions and multi-step word problems that test whether you actually understood the setup. He teaches a systematic approach to identifying what each question is really asking before touching the math.

I am a first year medical student at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. I have been a private tutor in the past in subjects such as math, biology, chemistry, and the SATs and every single one of my more than twenty students have shown significant improvement. Most importantly, I have a passion for teaching, and your needs and preferences as the learner will always be paramount. I hope to help every one of my students reach every bit of their potential, and along the way, to utterly shatter any self-induced limitations that have been placed upon what they can accomplish.
