After scoring a 36 on the ACT, Ethan mapped out which math concepts appear most frequently — coordinate geometry, logarithmic properties, and matrix basics show up in the final fifteen questions where most students lose points. He tackles those high-value topics first so students see the biggest score gains in the shortest time. His background in AP Calculus and statistics means nothing on the test is beyond his reach.

Most ACT Math questions test familiar concepts — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, systems of equations — but under brutal time pressure. Christina's approach, built from her own 34 ACT composite and years of tutoring math from pre-algebra through calculus, zeroes in on recognizing problem types within seconds so students spend their energy solving, not deciphering.

I am a senior at the University of New Haven working on a B.S. in Forensic Science-Biology with a Pre-Medical designation who hopes to go to medical school in the future. I am most passionate about biology and chemistry but have a strong personal interest in history, especially topics overlooked in the past study of history. To me, learning is a life long process and leads to the development of a well-rounded individual. Seeing understanding of a difficult topic and creating enthusiasm for learning is what draws me to tutoring.

Every ACT Math question can be solved in under a minute if you see the shortcut — and Tessa, a Yale math major with a perfect 36 composite, excels at revealing those shortcuts. She digs into the topics that cost students the most points in the later questions, like coordinate geometry, matrices, and trigonometric identities, building the pattern recognition that turns a 28 into a 34.

I am a Duke University graduate in Economics and Computer Science. I am currently pursuing an MBA degree at the Yale School of Management. I have worked in the financial field, both at a management consulting firm and a fortune 500 company. My hobbies include playing and coaching soccer.

I am a rising senior at Wesleyan University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Government and Latin American Studies. I have extensive experience with Spanish-language coursework and tutoring: I spent a semester one-on-one tutoring a high school student in beginning Spanish, have taken countless university-level Spanish classes, have taken both the Language and Literature AP Spanish tests, and have traveled and lived abroad in Spanish-speaking countries.

Scoring a 34 ACT composite, James knows the math section's pressure points: the handful of trigonometry and matrix questions near the end that separate a good score from a great one. He teaches students to manage pacing by recognizing which problems deserve full attention and which yield to quick shortcuts. His approach turns the 60-minute time constraint from an obstacle into a strategic framework.

I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have a strong science and math background having taken many courses in Physics, Computer Programming, and various mathematics subjects ranging from Geometry, to Multivariable Calculus, to Differential Equations. I am also very passionate about English, Literature, Russian Studies, Spanish Language, and History. I believe that the key to success is having a well rounded education, so when I am not programming microcontrollers, one can either find me watching Russian news channels to polish up my vocabulary, reading textbooks on the history of the Middle East, or simply immersing myself in a Jane Austen novel. In my free time I also enjoy training for CrossFit, playing the viola, and traveling.

Scoring a 33 ACT composite, Maxwell knows how to navigate the Math section's jump from straightforward algebra to tricky coordinate geometry and trigonometry questions in the final third. He teaches time-management strategies alongside the math itself, so students aren't just getting problems right — they're getting them right fast enough to finish. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a senior majoring in Mathematical Physics at the University of Connecticut with years of experience tutoring and teaching math and science from elementary through college. I primarily tutor high school math and sciences but also have extensive experience in all forms of physics and higher mathematics including Calculus and Linear Algebra. Not only do I have experience as a tutor, I was also an instructional assistant in college and a camp counselor. I like to use real world examples to help students realize how math and science can be applied in everyday life.

Patrycja scored a 34 on the ACT and approaches the Math section strategically — knowing when to use algebra, when to estimate, and when a geometry shortcut saves critical time. She teaches students to recognize question patterns across topics like coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and probability so they can move through all 60 questions with confidence.

I am an incoming medical student passionate about tutoring, counseling, and mentoring. From an early age, I tutored my fellow elementary school students in reading comprehension. From there, I gained extensive experience in my local library and other academic settings.
