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.
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.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
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.
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.
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.
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 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!
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and commitment level, but most students see meaningful gains within 8-12 weeks of consistent practice. Students who work with a tutor typically improve 2-4 points on the ACT Math section by focusing on weak areas, mastering test-specific strategies, and building confidence through targeted practice. The key is identifying which concepts or question types are holding you back—whether that's algebra, geometry, or pacing issues—and addressing those systematically.
Your first session is all about assessment and planning. A tutor will review your current ACT Math performance, discuss your target score, and identify specific areas where you're losing points—whether that's timing issues, conceptual gaps, or test-taking strategy. From there, you'll create a personalized study plan that focuses on your biggest opportunities for improvement before your test date.
Pacing is one of the most common challenges students face on ACT Math—you have about 60 seconds per question, which feels tight. Tutors help you develop strategies like identifying which questions to tackle first (easier ones to build confidence), which to skip strategically, and how to manage your time across the 60-question section. Practice tests under timed conditions are essential for building this skill, and a tutor can help you analyze where you're spending too much time and adjust your approach.
The best way is to take a full practice test under timed conditions and review every question you missed or guessed on. Look for patterns—are you struggling with algebra, geometry, trigonometry, or specific question types like word problems? Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who can analyze your practice test results, pinpoint exactly where you're losing points, and create a focused study plan to address those gaps before test day.
Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or unfamiliar with question formats. Working with a tutor builds confidence through repeated exposure to real ACT Math questions, mastery of strategies, and practice under timed conditions—all of which reduce anxiety significantly. Additionally, tutors can teach you stress-management techniques and help you develop a positive mindset about the test, so you walk in feeling ready rather than nervous.
Consistency matters more than intensity. Most students benefit from 2-3 focused study sessions per week, each 60-90 minutes long, combined with regular tutoring sessions. This schedule allows you to practice what you learn, build momentum, and give your brain time to consolidate new strategies. If your test date is closer, you may want to increase frequency, but a tutor can help you create a realistic schedule based on your timeline and current score.
Practice tests are absolutely critical—they're the most accurate way to measure your progress and get comfortable with the test format, timing, and question types. Taking full practice tests under timed conditions helps you identify pacing issues, weak content areas, and which strategies work best for you. A tutor can help you interpret your practice test results, focus your studying on the highest-impact areas, and track your improvement over time.
Look for tutors with strong math backgrounds, proven experience teaching ACT Math, and a track record of helping students improve their scores. They should understand the specific format and strategies of the ACT Math section, not just general math concepts. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors in New Orleans who specialize in ACT Math and can tailor their approach to your learning style and goals.
