Award-Winning SAT Math 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.

Rohith scored a 1480 on the SAT and brings particular strength to the math section's trickiest territory — quadratics, systems of inequalities, and the data-analysis questions that trip up students who rely on calculator shortcuts. He breaks each problem type into a decision tree so students know which approach to reach for before they even pick up a pencil.

Jude's 1590 SAT came from an applied-math mindset: every problem has a structure, and finding it is faster than brute-force calculation. He digs into the higher-difficulty questions — passport-to-advanced-math items involving polynomial division, complex equation manipulation, and data interpretation — where most students lose the points that separate a good score from a great one.

Scoring a 1570 on the SAT means Paul knows the test's math section inside and out — including the specific traps the College Board sets around quadratic word problems, data interpretation, and passport-to-advanced-math questions. He teaches students to recognize question types quickly and deploy the fastest solution path, whether that's back-solving, plugging in values, or setting up equations from scratch. That strategic layer is what separates a good math student from a high SAT Math scorer.

Scoring a 1550 on the SAT while majoring in mathematics at Brown means Zofia knows this material from both sides — the test-taking strategy and the deep mathematical reasoning behind it. She zeroes in on the areas where students lose points most often, like interpreting nonlinear models in context or navigating multi-step word problems under time pressure. Her approach turns careless mistakes into reliable points.

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

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.

Computer science at KU means Austin solves problems algorithmically — break the task into steps, check each one, optimize for speed — which is exactly the mindset that pays off on SAT Math's multi-step algebra and geometry questions. He scored a 1410 on the SAT and uses that recent experience to teach students which problem types reward careful setup versus which ones have fast backdoor solutions like plugging in answer choices. Rated 5.0 by students.

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.

Scoring 1430 on the SAT herself, Melissa knows firsthand how the math section tests familiar concepts in unfamiliar ways — a quadratic that looks like a word problem, or a data table hiding a linear relationship. She walks students through the specific algebra, function, and data-analysis skills that appear most often, building speed alongside accuracy.

Annie scored a 1410 on the SAT while still in college, so the test's algebra-heavy question style and time pressure are fresh in her memory — she knows which problem types reward careful setup and which ones reward speed. Her dual focus on math and Spanish education at CU Boulder means she's trained to actually teach concepts like systems of equations and quadratic modeling, not just solve them herself. Rated 5.0 by students.

A math degree from Georgetown plus a 1580 SAT means Peter doesn't just know the content — he knows which algebraic shortcuts and graph-reading strategies actually save time under pressure. He breaks the SAT Math section into pattern categories so students recognize problem types within seconds and spend their energy solving, not deciphering. Rated 5.0 by students.

Scoring a 1570 on the SAT, Perry knows exactly where the math section tries to trip students up — especially on quadratic and exponential word problems that test conceptual understanding rather than computation speed. He teaches efficient strategies for data analysis and passport-to-advanced-math questions that turn tricky phrasing into straightforward algebra. Rated 5.0 by students.

Engineering coursework at Washington and Lee gave Alex daily practice with the exact math the SAT tests at its hardest level: systems of equations, quadratic modeling, and interpreting complex data tables. He scored a 1590 composite and now teaches students to distinguish between problems that reward algebraic manipulation and those better solved by plugging in values or back-solving. That strategic flexibility is often what separates a 700 from a 780.

I am available to tutor in a broad range of subjects, though I am most passionate about Economics, History, and Civics. Please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to arrange a session.

Scoring high on SAT Math requires knowing when a problem wants algebra and when it wants a shortcut — and the difference often hides in how the question is worded. Nikhil earned a 1540 SAT and an engineering degree, so he teaches students to read each problem strategically, especially on the no-calculator section where efficiency matters most.

Kevin earned a 1550 SAT alongside his 36 ACT, so he knows exactly where the two math sections diverge — the SAT leans harder into multi-step word problems, data interpretation, and algebraic reasoning that rewards setting up equations carefully over grinding through calculations. He breaks down the no-calculator section's trickiest question types, like systems of equations and quadratic modeling, into repeatable strategies. His engineering training at Case Western Reserve keeps him sharp on every concept the test covers.

Violet's 1550 SAT and her math degree from Brown mean she can diagnose exactly where a student's algebra or data analysis gaps are costing them points on SAT Math. She teaches the handful of non-obvious techniques — backsolving, strategic plugging-in, unit analysis on word problems — that turn 650-range scores into 750+ scores. Her style leans heavily on shortcuts that make the no-calculator section feel less like a time crunch.

Two semesters of SAT prep mentoring through CollegeSpring gave Kiersten a clear picture of where students lose points on SAT Math: usually in translating word problems into equations and managing time on the no-calculator section. She scored a 1550 on the SAT herself and teaches specific techniques for setting up algebraic models quickly and checking answers without second-guessing.

I'm a graduate of Columbia University with a B.A. in History. I'm passionate about history and English, but I'm a competent math tutor as well. I have received outstanding scores on my SAT and AP tests, and am confident in my ability to pass on these skills to the next generation.

Premed coursework at Cornell means Sharan regularly tackles quantitative problems under exam pressure — and she channels that same discipline into SAT Math prep, particularly the data-analysis and algebraic modeling questions where sloppy setup costs more points than weak math skills. Her 1540 SAT confirms she knows how the test actually works, and she teaches students to build a systematic checklist for each problem type so nothing gets skipped when the clock is running. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am no longer needed.

Years of music performance training — sight-reading, pattern recognition, working under pressure — gave Vivian an unusual edge on timed math tests, and her 1530 SAT backs that up. She's especially sharp on the algebra-to-geometry crossover questions where students need to visualize what an equation actually represents, a skill she builds by teaching students to sketch before they solve. Rated 4.9 by students.
