Award-Winning PSAT Tutors
serving Aurora, CO

I am a student at the Georgia Institute of Technology studying Chemical Engineering. For the past several years, I have worked with students extensively. Through hosting events for younger kids to learn about STEM and for older teens to practice empathetic design, I know the importance of teaching students in ways that engage them rather than frustrate them, which I apply to my teaching. I have tutored high school students in a drop-in resource center in various subjects including math of all levels, chemistry, and English, making me adequately equipped in a variety of topics. I have also tutored several students long-term. Establishing relationships with students and exploring their unique learning styles is my favorite part of tutoring. I prioritize helping students discover HOW to learn in a manner that is the most effective for them, so they can begin to use those skills on their own throughout their education. Learning is a lifelong skill that requires practice for improvement; I strive to help my students gain confidence in their ability to learn.

I am quite passionate about education, since I feel it is the key to any sort of satisfying life. As the saying goes, knowledge is power, and knowledge can give you comfort and help guide you through a world that is often frustrating, convoluted, and dissatisfying. I have channeled this passion into teaching astronomy, which I majored in. I also taught some history and religion topics as head of a secular club in college.

I am a problem solver, and I love to help solve other's problems when they need it. I also love taking tests, and I hope that my excitement will translate to better scores for you!

Jude's applied physics coursework at Colorado School of Mines means he lives in the quantitative reasoning the PSAT math sections demand — solving algebra and data-analysis problems without a calculator is just a Tuesday for him. But his 1590 SAT shows he's equally sharp on the evidence-based reading and writing side, where he teaches students to eliminate trap answers by identifying exactly what the passage supports versus what merely sounds plausible. Rated 4.9 by students.

I'm a hiker, a reader, a giant nerd, and full of terrible jokes that will (shockingly) make tutoring fun.

I am an experienced tutor who is passionate about math and science education. I have a deep understanding of math and science. I recently graduated from Brown University with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, coursework in both the physical and natural sciences, and a GPA of 3.87. I also studied at an IB high school and graduated with the highest marks in my class.

I am a graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry as well as MCD (Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental) Biology while minoring in Chemistry in 2015. I love exploring all of the cool things that this world has to offer. By dabbling in a little of everything I can set my sights on what really holds my attention. My primary interests lie in the sciences, where learning what makes our world turn drives my passion for knowledge.

I am not tutoring, I am studying to be an EMT. I also love backpacking and adventuring.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky with a Master of Science in Animal Nutrition. I received my Bachelor of Science in Animal Sciences from Cornell University. While I tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring math and feel that our school systems often fail students when it comes to math. I do not believe that some people simply "can't do math." I believe that some may need extra time and help, but everyone can do math. With patience and hard work, any student can learn. I also enjoy tutoring Spanish, which I have studied since I was in elementary. During undergrad, I even studied abroad in Barcelona and lived with a host family. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, dancing, TV/movies, and knitting.

I am currently an undergraduate studying Computer Science at the University of Kansas, and am also a member of the KU Honors Program. As a native of Colorado, I love the great outdoors and have done everything from skydiving to climbing a few "14ers". I place great value on education and see the importance in attaining a deep understanding of academic subjects. I have a casual teaching style and do my best to teach my students the value of what they are learning. I specialize in Math and ACT and SAT prep.

I am currently a Masters student in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism at Naropa University in Boulder, CO. Previously, I had attended the Colorado School of Mines earning a bachelor's degree in Engineering Physics. I aspire to become a professor of Buddhist philosophy integrating contemplative studies with rigorous scientific and formal logics. Apart from scholastic endeavors, I spend much of my time wandering the Colorado mountains, practicing the piano, and studying the world around me.

I am a certified teacher in English as a foreign language, certified to teach high school science abroad, and have developed my own independent program to teach elementary school children. I have tutored in all levels of algebra as well as geometry. I have 4 years of experience teaching biology, from AP/Honors level biology to 3rd grade level "Making Neuroscience Fun" programs.

I am currently a student at the University of Colorado at Boulder studying Spanish and Education! I tutored Spanish and math throughout high school, and I loved connecting with my students and watching them grow and succeed. I love learning new, fun teaching techniques and using them with my students. In my free time, I like skiing, hiking, reading, and playing Pokemon on my Nintendo 64. I am a camp counselor in the summer time, and I love connecting with my campers and seeing them mature from summer to summer. I am excited to work with you!

I am in the process of selecting a masters program in education that will begin this summer. I have 2 years experience doing 1 on 1 tutoring and it is very effective compared to classroom teaching because there is only one student to focus on. I look forward to working with you and helping you or your child get better. Always remember, even the best of us need help and support from others to be successful.

I am working toward an MD at Stanford University. I am happy to help with MCAT, SAT, SAT subject, AP test prep, and general academic subjects. Throughout my 8 years of experiencing tutoring middle school and high school students, I aim to help students raise their test scores through targeting points of weakness and developing the tools to conquer those areas. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy running, listening to music, traveling, and reading.

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.

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.

Chemical engineering at Washington and Lee drilled the kind of systematic problem-solving that makes the PSAT's no-calculator math section click — setting up equations from word problems, manipulating expressions without reaching for a graphing calculator, and catching algebraic traps before they cost points. Alex pairs that quantitative strength with sharp reading and writing skills honed through an anthropology double major, which means the evidence-based passages and grammar-in-context questions get the same rigorous attention. His 1590 SAT and 36 ACT confirm he's mastered the full test architecture the PSAT is built from.

I'm eager to teach students how to make connections and understand any part of the world they need!

Comparative Literature trained Chloe to do one thing relentlessly — read closely and argue precisely about what a text is actually doing — which is the entire game on the PSAT's Evidence-Based Reading and Writing sections. Her 1540 SAT means she's already navigated the test the PSAT is modeled on, and her linguistics minor gives her a structural grip on the grammar-in-context questions that most students try to solve by ear. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am currently a fourth year medical student in Indianapolis. I completed my undergraduate education at Indiana University Bloomington, where I majored in Biology and Spanish. I also completed two minors in Mathematics and Chemistry. While at IU, I worked for the Department of Mathematics and Department of Spanish. I also worked as a Peer Tutor for the IU Athletics Department, tutoring in several subjects including statistics, chemistry, physics, and Spanish. I graduated from college with a 4.0, and I entered medical school shortly thereafter. Since coming to medical school, I have excelled in all of my pre-clinical coursework, and I currently rank in the Top 20% of my class. I feel very comfortable and confident tutoring other students in a variety of subjects from math and science to Spanish. I like to think that the same techniques I have used to excel in all phases of my education can be easily adapted to other students and help you achieve your academic goals, just as I have!

I am a second year law student at the University of Chicago who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area! I tutor the SAT, ESL, and Spanish. I was an AVID tutor in high school, and after college I taught an ESL class and tutored a high school student in Spanish. In law school, I am involved with the Lawyers in the Classroom program. My tutoring philosophy is based on listening to students work through problems and helping them to spot their confusions or incorrect assumptions. I believe students learn much better when they aren't simply told the right answer or right reasoning; they need to get there on their own.

A perfect 1600 on the SAT means Cassandra already mastered every skill the PSAT tests — evidence-based reading, command of evidence questions, and the grammar conventions that drive the Writing and Language section. Her comparative literature background is especially useful for the reading passages, where she teaches students to quickly identify argument structure and author's purpose under tight time constraints.

A perfect 1600 on the SAT means Ezra already mastered everything the PSAT tests — the same evidence-based reading questions, the same command-of-evidence traps, the same no-calculator algebra tricks. He breaks the exam into repeatable decision patterns, teaching students to spot distractor answer choices before they become tempting. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
