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

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.
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.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
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.
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 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+.
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 Neuroscience and Behavior major at Columbia University. Although my major is centered in the STEM field, I am also passionate about human rights work, global engagement, and local outreach. While my future plans are subject to change, I see myself continuing in academia, going to medical school, and becoming a physician.
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.
Medical school trains you to triage — figure out what matters most and act on it fast — and Jiatian applies that same instinct to ACT Math, teaching students to read a problem, identify the core concept being tested, and pick the most efficient solve path without getting tangled in extra information. Her Rice University math foundation covers the algebra, geometry, and probability spread across the section, and she's particularly sharp at showing students how to avoid the trap answers designed to catch rushed mistakes on the back half of the 60-question lineup.
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.
Chemical engineering at Michigan means Edward solves problems daily where algebra, trig, and unit conversions aren't textbook exercises — they're how you size a heat exchanger or model fluid flow. That applied math instinct, paired with a 36 ACT composite, lets him show students the fastest way to decode each of the 60 questions rather than grinding through every calculation from scratch. Rated 4.8 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.
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.
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.
Scoring a 36 on the ACT required mastering every math concept the test throws at you, from coordinate geometry and matrix operations to logarithmic functions. Bidyut walks through each problem type with an emphasis on recognizing what the question is actually asking, which saves time and eliminates careless errors. He's rated 5.0 by students.
Scoring high on ACT Math means handling everything from pre-algebra ratios to trigonometric identities within a single 60-minute sprint. Ryne's 36 ACT composite and his advanced coursework through linear algebra and multivariable calculus give him the range to tackle every difficulty level, and he teaches students which problems to solve quickly and which deserve extra time.
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 covers everything from pre-algebra ratios to logarithms and matrices, but the real challenge is pacing — 60 questions in 60 minutes leaves zero room for getting stuck. Eileen earned a 36 ACT composite and teaches students to recognize which problems deserve full work and which can be solved by backsolving or plugging in answer choices. That triage skill alone can recover five or six questions most students lose to the clock.
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.
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.
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 in my second year at MIT studying mathematics, and I am currently doing a research project in Spectral Graph Theory. I have been a tutor since my junior year in high school, and I enjoy teaching all levels of math; everything from pre-algebra through calculus and linear algebra! I focus primarily on making sure that the definitions and processes given in class make intuitive sense, so that math can begin to feel like second nature.
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.
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.
I am no longer needed.
A year as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave Richard a deep bench of ways to explain concepts when the first approach doesn't click. On ACT Math, he zeroes in on the topics that appear most frequently in the 50s and 60s — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, matrices, and logarithms — where most students leave points on the table. His 36 composite confirms he can execute under the test's tight time pressure.
I am excited to help anyone who might need it!
Research in astrophysics and optical engineering means Dennis spends his days doing math that's orders of magnitude harder than anything on the ACT — so the algebra, trigonometry, and coordinate geometry across all 60 questions feel like second nature to him. He teaches students to read each problem for what it's actually asking, cutting through the extra wording that turns a simple calculation into a time sink. His 36 ACT composite and 4.7 rating back up the approach.
David's computer science training built the kind of systematic problem-solving instinct that pays off on ACT Math — he treats each question as a logic puzzle, identifying the shortest path to the answer before touching his calculator. That approach, combined with his own 36 ACT composite, means he can teach students to recognize when a geometry or trig problem is really just an algebra problem in disguise. Rated 5.0 by students.
The ACT Math section covers a wide spread from pre-algebra through trigonometry, but the real challenge is pacing — 60 questions in 60 minutes leaves no room for getting stuck. Dana, who earned a 36 composite, teaches students to triage problems by difficulty and use strategic shortcuts on coordinate geometry and systems of equations. Her approach turns the time constraint from a source of panic into a manageable rhythm.
I am available to tutor in a broad range of subjects, though I am most passionate about Economics, History, and Civics. Please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to arrange a session.
Scoring a 36 ACT composite gave Sharan firsthand insight into the math section's quirks — questions that look complicated but collapse once you spot the right property of exponents or the shortcut through a system of equations. She teaches students to identify question types quickly and apply efficient strategies, especially on the later problems where time pressure is fiercest.
I am a patient, intellectual, and calm college student at the University of Michigan passionate about tutoring others to improve their proficiency in a wide variety of subjects. I teach students by creating individualized plans that cater to the strengths and weaknesses of the student. I work hard and as long as it takes to ensure that the student derives maximum benefit. I love teaching a wide variety of subjects, and have a speciality in standardized tests.
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.
I am a sophomore at the Georgia Institute of Technology and am working towards a major in Computer Engineering. I have been tutoring students of all ages and backgrounds in various math topics ranging from elementary school math to AP Calculus throughout high school. I love teaching math and always find it amazing to watch my students grow and improve in their mathematical abilities. While helping students with standardized testing, we go through several tricks and tactics that have helped my students succeed and have fun in the process. I am also well versed in Physics and have spent 3 years taking the highest levels of physics courses. I love playing all sports (especially soccer) and enjoy playing the guitar in my free time as well.
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.
I am passionate about helping students with math, science, test prep, and more! As sophomore undergraduate at Brown University studying Mathematics and Biophysics, I am well experienced with many topics. I received a perfect 36 on my ACT, so I am very confident with test taking.
