Scoring a 32 ACT composite means Jason knows what the Math section actually tests — and a lot of it comes down to recognizing which formula applies to a problem before time pressure kicks in. He breaks questions into categories like coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and probability so students build a mental toolkit they can deploy quickly on test day. Rated 5.0 by students.

Scoring a 32 ACT composite, Dharani knows the math section rewards speed and strategy as much as raw ability — especially on coordinate geometry and trigonometry questions that eat up time if you don't recognize the shortcut. Her math minor gives her fluency across every topic the ACT tests, and she teaches students to identify question types quickly so they spend their minutes where it counts.
Most ACT Math questions reward quick recognition over deep calculation — knowing instantly whether a problem is testing coordinate geometry, function behavior, or a ratio setup. Logan's 36 ACT composite came from exactly that kind of systematic categorization, and he teaches students to classify each of the 60 questions within seconds so they spend their time solving, not figuring out what's being asked. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am no longer needed.
I am 22 years old and just graduated from the University of Kentucky with a double degree in French and Biochemistry. I have been a tutor for over a year now at UK's tutoring center. I believe that anyone can learn anything with enough practice and encouragement, and I love helping students overcome challenges and gain more self-confidence!
I am a graduate of UofL with a BS degree in Biochemistry and minor in Biology, heading to medical school at UVA this fall. I have spent 5 semesters as a teaching assistant for the Chemistry Department, spending three semesters teaching general chemistry and two semesters teaching organic chemistry. I have also spent a year as a small-group tutor, helping individual students through tough chemistry topics. While I have a strong background in biology, I am most passionate about tutoring chemistry I love its order, set in rules and mathematics. Outside of academics, I spend my time outdoors, bouldering, or playing couch co-op video games.
The ACT Math section crams everything from pre-algebra to trigonometry into 60 questions in 60 minutes, which means knowing the math isn't enough — students need to spot what each problem is actually testing within seconds. Kevin scored a 35 composite and brings a competition math background that makes him especially sharp on the coordinate geometry and trig problems that trip up students chasing 30+. He breaks down time management by difficulty tier so nothing gets left on the table.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for second-guessing whether a problem needs the law of cosines or a system of equations. Matthew's engineering math background means he recognizes problem types instantly and teaches students to do the same. He emphasizes the algebra and coordinate geometry concepts that make up the bulk of the test rather than spending time on rare topics.
I am a graduate of the University of Kentucky with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a minor in Art Studio. I am currently working toward my Masters of Arts in Game Development at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I am deeply passionate about helping students unleash their full potential. Witnessing the "aha" moments when they grasp a challenging concept is very rewarding. I tutor a range of subjects from computer science principles and programming languages (C, C++, Java, etc.) to game development in Unity and 3D art in various software.
Scoring well on ACT Math means being fast and flexible across topics that range from pre-algebra ratios all the way to trigonometric identities and matrices. Janki's strength here is her fluency across that entire spectrum — she tutors algebra, trigonometry, and calculus individually, so she can pinpoint exactly which content gaps are costing a student points. She also teaches time-saving shortcuts for the easier questions so students can bank minutes for the harder back half.
I'm looking forward to putting my knowledge to work for you!
Richard's approach to ACT Math treats the 60-question, 60-minute format as a strategy problem as much as a math problem. He identifies which content areas — coordinate geometry, trigonometry, probability — a student needs to sharpen, then builds targeted practice around the question types that yield the fastest score gains.
Scoring well on ACT Math means handling everything from coordinate geometry to logarithms under serious time pressure — 60 questions in 60 minutes. Andrew's background in college-level calculus and biochemistry math gives him fluency with the trickier problems in the 50-60 range, where most students lose points. His 34 ACT composite reflects comfort across every section.
I am a graduate of the University of Louisville, holding Bachelor's Degrees in English and Political Science, minors in Spanish and Social Change, and a Certificate in Peace, Justice, and Conflict Transformation. Although my major studies were not specifically within education, I discovered that my heart belongs in the classroom, as I love seeing students discover their strengths and skills. I hold strong to having a "growth mindset" and being a continuous learner. I believe in the power of education to empower all students. I am passionate about helping others achieve to the best of their abilities!
Most ACT Math questions below #40 test concepts students already know — the points get lost to pacing mistakes and misread setups, not missing knowledge. Asta, who scored a 35 ACT composite, coaches students to identify exactly what each problem is asking before touching their calculator, a habit that cleans up the careless errors that quietly drag scores down. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that disciplined, read-first approach clicks during timed practice.
Computational biology at Cornell means Emily spends her days translating messy biological data into precise mathematical models — so the algebra, probability, and trig concepts packed into ACT Math's 60 questions are tools she uses constantly, not abstract formulas she memorized once. She scored a 36 ACT composite and teaches students to identify what each problem is really testing before they start calculating, which cuts down on the second-guessing that burns clock in the back half of the section.
Physics majors live and breathe the algebra, trigonometry, and graphical reasoning that make up the bulk of ACT Math — Dylan's Vanderbilt coursework means he solves these kinds of problems daily, not just on test day. He's especially strong at showing students what a function or equation actually looks like on a graph, which turns abstract questions into something visual and quick to solve. His 36 ACT composite backs up that approach.
The ACT Math section rewards speed as much as knowledge, and Sugi teaches students to recognize which of the 60 questions are quick wins versus time traps. Her perfect 36 composite and strong math background — through calculus and physical chemistry at Rice — mean she can explain underlying concepts when a student needs more than just a shortcut.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite means Sydney tackled the Math section's full range — from coordinate geometry and trigonometric identities to probability and matrices — under real time pressure. She approaches ACT Math as a strategic exercise, teaching students which problems to solve algebraically, which to estimate, and how to manage pacing so they aren't rushing the final ten questions.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite means Emily knows how the math section tests concepts — it's less about advanced formulas and more about recognizing which tool to apply under time pressure, whether that's coordinate geometry, probability, or trigonometric identities. She breaks down each problem type so students learn to spot what's being asked before they start calculating. Rated 5.0 by students.
Scoring a 35 ACT composite while pursuing mechanical engineering at Harvard, Christopher brings genuine mathematical fluency to ACT Math prep. He zeroes in on the topics that appear most frequently — logarithms, trigonometric identities, coordinate geometry — and teaches time-saving shortcuts so students aren't scrambling in the final ten questions.
I am an undergraduate at Washington University in St. Louis majoring in Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology on the Premed track. I have two years worth of experience peer tutoring. I feel the most confident tutoring ACT preparation. During my time as a high school student, I worked from an ACT score of 25 to a 36 and developed many effective strategies that I will tailor to the students I tutor and understand the ins and outs of the test. In addition to working with high school peers, I have also enjoyed teaching private piano and violin lessons for elementary students. Helping people knock down their roadblocks is a passion of mine. Standardized tests and basic education may feel removed from our passions, but developing those foundations are essential for opening up opportunities and becoming capable of taking on our pursuits.
After scoring a 36 ACT composite, Sreya reverse-engineered the Math section into the handful of concept clusters that appear most often — coordinate geometry, logarithmic and trigonometric identities, and probability. She teaches each cluster with timed mini-sets so students build both accuracy and the speed needed to reach the final ten questions with confidence.
Nicholas is currently a math graduate student at the University of Illinois, which means the algebra, functions, and trigonometry that fill the ACT Math section are concepts he works with daily — not formulas he has to dust off. His own 36 ACT composite came from treating the 60-question sprint as an exercise in efficient problem classification: identifying what each question is really asking and picking the shortest path to the answer. Rated 4.9 by students, he brings that same structured, no-wasted-steps approach to every practice session.
I'm a recent college graduate with degrees in Biological Sciences and Russian from Ohio University. During my time there, I tutored students in a variety of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and Spanish. In addition, I worked as both a peer advisor and teaching assistant, which gives me insight into the learning strategies and study skills that students need to succeed. As a tutor, I like to focus on doing actual problems with students because it is the most effective way to immediately identify their strengths and weaknesses and to address them. In my free time, I like to lift weights, read books, and spend time with my friends.
Zhenrui scored a 36 ACT composite, which means a perfect score on the Math section — the kind of result that comes from knowing exactly how the test frames questions on coordinate geometry, matrices, and trigonometric identities. He teaches students to spot which concept each problem is really testing, cutting through the ACT's tendency to dress up straightforward math in confusing language.
