Hello! I am Jason Min, a recent college graduate looking to do some tutoring over the summer. Please feel free to ask me questions!

Industrial engineering at Georgia Tech is essentially applied math under pressure — optimization, probability, statistical modeling — which maps neatly onto the algebra, functions, and data questions that fill the ACT Math section. Ilesh pairs that quantitative training with a perfect 36 ACT composite and a pacing approach built around identifying which of the 60 problems deserve full attention and which can be solved in under 30 seconds. Rated 5.0 by students.
The ACT Math section covers everything from pre-algebra ratios to trigonometric identities, and the real challenge is pacing — not just knowing the math but recognizing which approach gets you to the answer fastest. John earned a 36 composite and teaches students to identify problem types on sight so they can allocate time strategically across all 60 questions.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for getting stuck on coordinate geometry or probability problems. Anna earned a perfect 36 ACT composite and teaches a triage strategy — identifying which questions to solve immediately, which to set up and return to, and which to skip strategically. That pacing discipline is often the difference between a 30 and a 34+.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
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.
A chemical engineering degree means Alex didn't just memorize formulas — he used trigonometry, coordinate geometry, and logarithms daily in coursework at Washington and Lee. On the ACT Math section, he teaches students to recognize which of the 60 questions are designed to waste time and which reward a quick conceptual shortcut. His perfect 36 ACT composite came partly from that kind of strategic pacing.
Elliot's neuroscience PhD required heavy quantitative work — experimental design, statistical modeling, data analysis — which keeps the algebra, probability, and graph-reading skills central to ACT Math sharp and automatic. He scored a 36 ACT composite and uses that familiarity with the test's structure to teach students how to quickly classify each of the 60 questions by type and apply the most efficient solution path. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am a Yale graduate with over 8 years experience tutoring students from a variety of backgrounds. I recently graduated from the Yale School of Public Health with a MPH concentrating in Epidemiology and Global Health. I also received my B.S. from Yale with a double major in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology and French. I have experience both leading group classes and working with students one on one. I will respond to a student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning style in order to help them succeed and make the most of our time together. I earned a perfect score of 36 on the ACT, 2280 on the SAT, and qualified as a National Merit Scholar on the PSAT. I look forward to working with you!
Scoring a 36 composite on the ACT required Benjamin to move through the Math section's 60 questions with speed and precision, from basic proportions all the way to matrices and trigonometric identities. He teaches the pacing strategies and pattern-recognition shortcuts that let students avoid getting bogged down on mid-section problems and still reach the harder questions with time to spare.
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.
Earning a 36 ACT composite, Eric approaches the Math section as a pacing and pattern-recognition challenge as much as a content test. The first 40 questions reward speed and accuracy on pre-algebra through coordinate geometry, while the final 20 demand quick thinking on trigonometry and matrices — and he teaches students to shift gears between those two phases deliberately. His method turns the 60-minute time crunch from a source of panic into a manageable strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how consistently you work with a tutor. Most students see meaningful gains—typically 2-4 points on the ACT composite—within 8-12 weeks of focused preparation. Students who struggle with specific math concepts often see faster improvement once those gaps are addressed, while those aiming for top scores (34+) may need longer to master advanced problem-solving strategies. Your tutor will help you set realistic goals based on your current performance and target score.
The biggest challenge for most students is pacing—the ACT Math section gives you 60 minutes for 60 questions, so speed and accuracy both matter. Many students also struggle with geometry and trigonometry concepts that may not be emphasized as heavily in their regular coursework, or they misread multi-step word problems. Additionally, test anxiety can cause careless mistakes on problems students actually know how to solve. A tutor can help you develop strategies to manage time, strengthen weak content areas, and build confidence on test day.
Your first session is about understanding where you stand and what you need. Varsity Tutors connects you with a tutor who will review your current ACT Math score (or have you take a practice section), identify which topics are causing the most trouble, and discuss your target score and timeline. From there, your tutor will create a personalized study plan focused on your specific weak areas—whether that's algebra, geometry, or test-taking strategy—rather than reviewing material you already know well.
Practice tests are essential because they help you get comfortable with the test format, pacing, and question styles under timed conditions. Taking full practice tests (or timed sections) regularly shows you where you're making mistakes and whether those mistakes are from knowledge gaps or careless errors. Your tutor will use practice test results to guide your study plan and help you track progress over time. Aim to take at least one full practice test every 2-3 weeks as you prepare.
Timing strategy is learnable. Start by taking untimed practice sections to build confidence with the content, then gradually add time pressure. Many students benefit from skipping harder problems initially and returning to them after completing easier ones—this ensures you rack up points on questions you can solve quickly. Your tutor can teach you which problem types typically take longer and help you develop shortcuts for common question formats. Practice this strategy repeatedly so it becomes automatic on test day.
The best way is to review your practice test results and look for patterns—are you missing geometry questions, struggling with word problems, or making errors on algebra? Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who can analyze your performance data and pinpoint exactly which content areas need work. Once you know your weak spots, your tutor can create targeted lessons and practice sets rather than spending time on topics you've already mastered, making your study time much more efficient.
Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty—not knowing what to expect or doubting your abilities. Personalized tutoring builds confidence by giving you deep familiarity with the test format, question types, and strategies you'll use. As you practice problems repeatedly and see yourself improving, anxiety naturally decreases. Your tutor can also teach you calming techniques and help you develop a pre-test routine that works for you. Many students find that knowing they've prepared thoroughly is the best anxiety antidote.
Most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of consistent tutoring before their test date, meeting 1-2 times per week depending on their starting score and target. If you're starting from a lower baseline or aiming for a very competitive score, you may want to begin 3-4 months out. Your tutor will help you create a realistic timeline based on your goals and can adjust the pace as you progress. The key is consistency—regular practice between sessions is just as important as tutoring time itself.
