I am a current student at the Colorado School of Mines, studying to double major in Applied Mathematics and Engineering Physics. I have been tutoring students professionally for one year, but also through my schools for 5 years now. I tutor most kinds of Math and Science, and love doing so; being able to help spread understanding of a difficult concept never fails to bring me joy. As a current student, I understand how lecturing is often not the most effective (or interesting) way to learn, so I like to be very interactive and ask a lot of questions in my teaching, almost like a conversation between the student and myself.

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 a neuroscience and psychology double major from CU Boulder working to go to PA school down the road. I am originally from the East coast, but definitely prefer the hiking here. I was a learning assistant (basically student focused teacher aid) at CU, and took a course to learn more effective pedagogy. Afterwards, I was asked to be a mentor, and continued trying to help as much as I can.
The ACT Reading section rewards speed and strategy more than deep literary analysis — it's about locating evidence quickly and eliminating wrong answers with confidence. Christian scored a 34 composite and teaches students a systematic passage-attack method that prioritizes time management across the four passage types. Rated 5.0 by students, he breaks down how to handle the dual-passage comparison questions that trip up most test-takers.
The ACT Reading section rewards a specific kind of speed — not skimming, but knowing exactly what to extract from each passage type. Oliver, who scored a 33 composite, teaches students to attack the paired-passage and prose fiction sections with targeted annotation strategies that cut re-reading time in half.
I am a lifelong learner, and I would love to be your next tutor!
Speed is the real enemy on ACT Reading: four passages, forty questions, thirty-five minutes. Rohith teaches a deliberate approach to each passage type — prose fiction, social science, humanities, natural science — showing students how to locate evidence quickly and eliminate answer choices without second-guessing themselves.
The ACT Reading section rewards a specific kind of speed — not skimming, but knowing where to look and how to eliminate answer choices that sound right but aren't supported by the passage. Graham, an avid reader studying astrophysics and chemistry at CU Boulder, breaks down each passage type (prose fiction, social science, humanities, natural science) so students know what to expect before the clock starts. His 33 ACT composite backs up the approach.
I am an incoming first year medical student at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora, Colorado. I graduated from the University of Virginia with a BS in Biomedical Engineering. Through the course of my undergraduate career, I served as a teaching assistant for Cell & Molecular Biology and both undergraduate and graduate versions of Introduction to MATLAB. I also have experience volunteering as a tutor from elementary to high school levels. In addition to teaching, I have personal experience with the ACT, SAT, AP, IB, and MCAT exams. I would like to now use my teaching experience to help local students in the subjects I encountered during my undergraduate career. I love teaching and work to make learning as easy as possible by employing games, shortcuts, and gradual build-up so that my students can improve to their desired performance levels.
I am a undergraduate student who is willing to help other students in subjects that they may be experiencing difficulties in.
The ACT Reading section isn't really about reading — it's about efficiently locating evidence across four dense passages in 35 minutes. Austin teaches a strategic approach to passage ordering and question triage that keeps students from burning time on the hardest literary narrative while leaving easy social science points on the table. His 33 ACT composite and 5.0 tutoring rating speak to how well this method translates to real score gains.
Most students treat ACT Reading like a comprehension quiz, but it's really a speed-and-evidence game — four passages, forty questions, thirty-five minutes. Paige, who scored a 32 composite and reads analytically by training as a philosophy major, teaches students to locate textual evidence fast and eliminate answer choices that sound right but aren't supported. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach clicks with students.
