Austin
Certified ACT Math Tutor
Austin
BA University of Notre Dame
15+ Years Tutoring

Most ACT Math questions below #40 test algebra and proportional reasoning that Austin, with a 33 composite and 1570 SAT, can break down into repeatable two- or three-step routines — the kind of efficiency that turns a rushed 60-minute sprint into a manageable pace. His classics and philosophy training also sharpened his ability to parse tricky word problems, pulling the actual mathematical question out of deliberately confusing setups.

Ritik
BA Purdue University-Main Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior at Purdue University studying Aerospace Engineering and am part of the Air Force ROTC program. I have 6 years of tutoring experience at places including Kumon, Mathnasium, and Purdue University. I have worked with kids of all ages from kindergarten to sophomores in college, each with their own set of unique strengths, and tutored a variety of subjects, including calculus, trigonometry, geometry, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics. Like many of my previous students, I struggled to understand concepts that I was being taught and was a terrible test taker. However, I found ways to overcome my obstacles and develop an better intuition for what I was learning. I believe that it is only this intuition and understanding that helps overcome these obstacles. My least favorite thing to see people be discouraged, so with a little bit of guidance and reassurance, I want to show people that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.
