A Creative Writing degree from Carnegie Mellon and induction into Sigma Tau Delta (the English honors society) meant Sydney spent four years dissecting sentence-level craft — parallelism, punctuation as pacing, cutting every unnecessary word — which is essentially what the ACT English section tests at speed across five passages. She scored a 35 ACT composite and brings a writer's instinct for why concise phrasing beats bloated alternatives, turning the rhetorical strategy questions from guesswork into quick editorial calls. Rated 4.9 by students.

Scoring a perfect 36 ACT composite means Talia didn't just survive the English section's 45-minute sprint — she mastered the specific rhythm of its grammar and rhetorical questions, from comma rules around appositional phrases to spotting redundancy buried mid-paragraph. Her political science writing at Northeastern keeps those editing instincts sharp, since constructing policy arguments demands the same tight, logical prose the test rewards. Rated 5.0 by students.

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.

As an English major at Harvard who also speaks Mandarin, Cindy has an intuitive grasp of how grammar rules function across languages — a perspective that sharpens her ability to teach the ACT English section's trickiest punctuation and sentence-structure questions as logical systems rather than feel-based guesses. Her perfect 36 ACT composite means she's navigated every question type the section throws at students, and she's especially sharp on the rhetorical strategy questions about paragraph organization and conciseness. Rated 5.0 by students.

Scoring a 35 ACT composite while juggling a biology and computer science double major at Northeastern means Eunice didn't have time to second-guess English questions by ear — she learned the finite set of grammar and rhetoric rules the section actually tests and applied them systematically. She's especially sharp on the punctuation and sentence-structure questions where knowing the rule (not just what "sounds right") is the fastest path to a correct answer. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm a current senior at Harvard University earning a double major in Environmental Science and Public Policy and Studies of Women, Gender, and Sexuality. During my time at Harvard, I've done a wide variety of education-related work. I've taught my own self-designed course on Feminism, Intersectionality, and Queer Theory to high school students in both the US and Vietnam, and I currently design and lead customized inclusivity trainings with Harvard's Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.

Clare scored a 35 ACT composite and treats the English section as a place where small, learnable rules — subject-verb agreement, modifier placement, punctuation between clauses — translate directly into fast point gains. She drills students on the handful of grammar concepts that appear most frequently, then shifts to the rhetorical strategy questions that tend to trip people up.

I am current student at Harvard Medical School. I attended Vassar College as an undergraduate where I studied Science, Technology and Society. I am a patient teacher and eager to work with students of all ages.

Earning a 34 ACT composite required Connie to nail the English section's rapid-fire grammar and rhetorical strategy questions. She teaches students to distinguish between conventions-of-usage traps — comma splices, pronoun agreement, verb tense shifts — and the subtler production-of-writing questions that ask about organization and tone. Speed and accuracy come from drilling those two categories separately before combining them under timed conditions.

Engineering students read and write with a specific kind of discipline — every word in a lab report or design spec has to earn its place — and Kristen carries that same ruthless editing instinct into the ACT English section's conciseness and rhetorical strategy questions. Her 36 ACT composite means she's seen every grammar convention and passage-organization trick the test throws, and she teaches each one as a concrete rule rather than a judgment call. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am personable and open with my students because I believe that forging an honest and mutually respectful relationship is fundamental for us to be successful in learning together. I hope to bring my experience, dedication and eagerness to work with a variety of students to Varsity Tutors.

Scoring a 35 ACT composite while majoring in math at Tufts means Nikola lives in the world of precise, rule-based thinking — and the English section is really just another rule-based system once you stop guessing by ear and start recognizing the dozen or so grammar patterns the test actually rotates through. He also tutors college essays and literature, so he brings genuine editorial instincts to the rhetoric and passage-organization questions that pure grammar review won't cover. Holds a 5.0 rating.
