Logan
Certified SAT Tutor
Logan
MS The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary • BA University of Kentucky
6+ Years Tutoring

A 1400 SAT and a communication background give Logan a dual advantage: he knows the test's structure cold and can clearly articulate the reasoning behind every answer choice. His approach to the Reading and Writing sections leans heavily on argument analysis — identifying claims, evaluating evidence, and spotting the rhetorical moves that the College Board loves to test. Rated 5.0 by students, he also brings strong math fundamentals from his 36 ACT composite to shore up the quantitative side.

Jenna
BA University of Kentucky
9+ Years Tutoring

Jenna's double major in French and Biochemistry means she's equally comfortable coaching the verbal and quantitative sides of the SAT — she reads passages like a humanities student and attacks the math section like a scientist. Her own 1570 puts her in the top fraction of test-takers, and she uses that experience to teach specific pacing and elimination techniques rather than generic advice. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kevin
MS Stanford University • BA Stanford University
6+ Years Tutoring

Stanford's computer science program demands the kind of precise, fast analytical thinking that transfers surprisingly well to SAT prep — Kevin applies that same systematic approach to both the math section's trickiest algebra and data problems and the reading section's evidence-based reasoning questions. His 1590 SAT score came from building repeatable strategies for each question type rather than relying on intuition, and that's exactly what he teaches. Rated 5.0 by students.

Jesse
BA University of Louisville
8+ Years Tutoring

A 1520 SAT gives Jesse credibility, but what makes him effective is his math background — he breaks down both the algebra-heavy and data-analysis questions with the kind of structural thinking that turns guessing into confident solving. On the reading and writing side, he teaches students to identify evidence pairs and grammar patterns quickly, treating each section as its own skill set with distinct strategies.

Richard
BS Bellarmine University
8+ Years Tutoring

Twelve years of editing and publishing experience give Richard an unusual edge on the SAT — he treats the Reading and Writing sections as exercises in precision, training students to identify exactly what the evidence supports and nothing more. On the Math side, his biochemistry degree keeps him fluent in the quantitative reasoning and data interpretation that dominate the test.

Sreya
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
6+ Years Tutoring

Having just gone through the SAT herself — scoring a 1580 — Sreya knows exactly which question types feel deceptively easy and where students actually hemorrhage points under time pressure. Her chemistry and computer science training at Michigan built the kind of systematic, pattern-driven thinking she now applies to the Math section's data analysis and algebra problems, while her IB background keeps her sharp on evidence-based reading strategy. Rated 5.0 by students.

Michelle
MD Baylor College of Medicine • BA Rice University
1+ Years Tutoring

Second-year medical school at Baylor means Michelle lives in the world of high-stakes, timed exams — and she applies that same strategic discipline to SAT prep, where she scored a 1570. Her biochemistry training at Rice sharpens the data-interpretation and graph-reading questions on the Math section, while her science-heavy reading background translates into efficient passage analysis on the Evidence-Based Reading side.

Nishad
BA Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus
1+ Years Tutoring

Medical school admissions forced Nishad to master every section of the SAT on his way to a 1580 composite — and that full-test perspective means he coaches the Reading, Writing, and Math sections as one integrated strategy rather than three separate prep tracks. His premed science training sharpens his approach to data interpretation and graph-based questions, while his literature and essay background keeps the evidence-based reading instruction equally rigorous.

Tracy
BA University of Pennsylvania
6+ Years Tutoring

Competition math experience and a 1540 SAT score give Tracy a particularly strong command of the Math section's trickiest problems — the ones that layer multiple concepts like systems of equations inside word problems or require nonstandard approaches under time pressure. She also brings native Mandarin fluency and an economics-trained reading style to the Evidence-Based Reading section, where she teaches students to trace an author's argument before touching the answer choices. Rated 4.9 by students.

Anna
BA Northwestern University • Graduated (Honors Program in Medical Education) Northwestern University
8+ Years Tutoring

Northwestern's Honors Program in Medical Education accepted Anna straight out of high school, which meant she had to master the kind of disciplined, high-stakes test-taking that the SAT demands — and her 1590 score reflects that. She teaches students to treat the math section's word problems as logic puzzles and coaches a systematic elimination approach on the Reading and Writing passages that cuts through ambiguity under time pressure.

Alex
BA Washington and Lee University
6+ Years Tutoring

Medical school demands the same skill the SAT rewards — extracting the right answer from dense, unfamiliar material under serious time pressure. Alex, who scored a 1590, teaches students to treat the Reading section like a data problem: find the claim, locate the evidence, eliminate what doesn't match. His chemical engineering training at Washington and Lee also means the math section's algebra and data analysis questions are territory he can break down cold.

Dennis's physics research at Princeton — modeling turbulent plasmas and cosmic ray acceleration — required exactly the kind of precise quantitative reasoning and data interpretation that dominates the SAT Math section. He scored a 1530 on the SAT himself and pairs that firsthand experience with a methodical, science-trained approach to the Reading section, where he teaches students to treat passages like data sets and extract evidence systematically.

Ritik
BA Purdue University-Main Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

Having once struggled as a test-taker himself, Ritik developed a systematic approach to the SAT that emphasizes building intuition over memorizing tricks — particularly on the Math section, where his aerospace engineering training at Purdue means he can unpack everything from algebraic modeling to data analysis with real clarity. He scored a 1420 on the SAT and uses that experience to teach pacing strategies and pattern recognition across both sections. His six years of tutoring students from elementary school through college means he's quick at diagnosing where points are being lost and adjusting accordingly.

Chemical engineering coursework at Michigan means Edward lives in the kind of multi-step quantitative reasoning that dominates the SAT Math section — translating word problems, manipulating algebraic expressions, and interpreting data under time pressure. He pairs that with a structured approach to the Reading and Writing sections, teaching students to identify evidence patterns and grammar rules rather than relying on instinct. His 1520 SAT and 4.8 rating speak to how well that approach transfers to test day.
