I'm a student at Clark University and I can help you with whatever you need. Whatever your learning style, whatever your difficulties, I will help you through it. Together, we can solve any problem you have. I can teach you how to study, I can edit your papers, I can teach you memory tricks and organizational skills and I guarantee that after a little while with me, your grades WILL improve.

I am a rising senior at Wellesley College majoring in Music and American Studies. During my first year at college, I started tutoring students in grades K-12 at the Mathnasium center in Wellesley, MA. The following two years, I tutored my peers taking courses in American Popular Music, Jazz Music Theory, and Jazz History. Over the past two years, I've developed a passion for helping students pursue writing and research topics that reflect their identities and personal histories. By framing education as a lens through which to perceive themselves, students have been infinitely more engaged. I'm most passionate in tutoring topics related to music history, but interestedly, I've come to deeply appreciate and value writing, research, and analysis skills. Outside of the classroom, I play alto saxophone in a couple of jazz groups, read graphic novels, bake, knit/crochet, and am learning to skate on a longboard!
Megan scored a 1490 on the SAT and breaks the math section down by question type — heart of algebra, passport to advanced math, and problem solving with data analysis — so students know exactly what to expect. Her analytical training in cognitive science at UConn sharpens the way she teaches strategic elimination and time management on tricky multi-step problems. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am a graduate of Boston University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, with a minor in Biology, and a Pre-Medical concentration. Given this, my academic knowledge is obviously eclectic. In the past few years following my education, I have discovered a passion for teaching and currently work as an Instructor for Seven Hills Foundation. I have a straight-forward teaching philosophy which applies to each student as an individual learner. This helps to identify and clarify misunderstandings in the process rather than stumbling over information. I am able to teach in English and Writing, as well as across most maths and sciences, including Organic/Inorganic Chemistry, Biology, Statistics, Algebra, and Calculus. I strongly believe in lifelong learning, and try to practice that philosophy daily. My other passion is music, as I play guitar and piano. Otherwise, I enjoy spending time with friends and simple moments of relaxation.
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.
Creative writing might seem unrelated to SAT Math, but Sydney's 1600 SAT score speaks for itself — and her approach to the math section mirrors how she tackles a draft: strip every problem down to what it's actually asking, then build the solution step by step. She's especially sharp on the algebra-heavy word problems where students who can do the math still lose points because they misread the setup, a reading-comprehension trap her writing background makes her uniquely good at catching. Rated 4.9 by students.
A chemistry degree means Won spent years converting word problems into equations — balancing reactions, calculating concentrations, working through stoichiometry — which is exactly the skill the SAT Math section's algebra and problem-solving questions demand under time pressure. His 1560 SAT confirms he knows how to execute that skill quickly on test day, and he zeroes in on the geometry and passport-to-advanced-math questions where students most often second-guess themselves.
Comparative literature might seem unrelated to SAT Math, but Cassandra's 1600 SAT speaks for itself — and her lit-trained habit of close reading turns out to be a real advantage on the section's deliberately tricky word problems, where misreading the setup costs more points than any algebra mistake. She teaches students to slow down on problem translation, locking in what's actually being asked before touching any arithmetic, especially on the ratio and percent questions that bury key details mid-sentence.
Rob earned a 1580 on the SAT and approaches the Math section by categorizing every question into one of roughly a dozen problem archetypes — heart-of-algebra setups, passport-to-advanced-math manipulations, and data-analysis traps. Once a student recognizes the archetype, the solving strategy clicks into place almost automatically. That pattern-recognition method is especially effective for students who understand the math but lose points to pacing or misreads.
Scoring a 1560 on the SAT gave Diana firsthand knowledge of what the Math section actually rewards — not just computational skill but the ability to translate word problems into algebraic setups quickly. She zeroes in on the high-yield topics like linear and quadratic modeling, ratios, and data analysis that make up the bulk of the test. Students walk away with specific strategies for both the no-calculator and calculator sections.
Cindy scored a 1580 on the SAT and breaks the Math section down into its core question types — passport to advanced math, heart of algebra, and problem-solving with data analysis — so students know exactly what to expect. She teaches the pacing and elimination strategies that turn careless mistakes into confident answers. Rated 5.0 by students.
Every SAT Math question has a fast path and a slow path — Hope's 1600 SAT and mathematics degree mean she's mapped both for virtually every problem type, from Heart of Algebra setups to passport-to-advanced-math quadratics. She teaches students to recognize which approach a question is designed to reward, so they stop burning time on brute-force solving when a structural shortcut exists. Rated 4.8 by students.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and effort level, but most students see meaningful gains within 8-12 weeks of consistent practice. Students who work with a tutor typically improve 50-100+ points by focusing on weak areas, mastering test-specific strategies, and building confidence with timed practice. Your personalized tutor will identify which concepts need the most work and create a study plan tailored to your goals.
Your first session focuses on understanding your strengths, weaknesses, and test goals. Your tutor will likely review a practice test or discuss which topics feel most challenging—whether that's algebra, geometry, data analysis, or test pacing. From there, you'll develop a customized study plan that targets your specific needs and fits your timeline before test day.
Pacing is one of the most common challenges SAT Math students face, especially on the harder problems. A tutor can teach you strategic approaches like identifying which problems to tackle first, when to skip and return, and how to manage the 75-minute time limit effectively. Regular timed practice tests help you build speed without sacrificing accuracy, and your tutor will help you find the right balance for your skill level.
Tutors typically start by reviewing your practice test results to spot patterns—whether you're struggling with specific topics like quadratics or trigonometry, or whether the issue is timing and careless mistakes. They may also work through problems with you to understand your thought process and identify conceptual gaps versus test strategy issues. This diagnostic approach ensures your study time focuses on what actually needs improvement.
Most students benefit from taking 4-6 full practice tests under timed conditions in the weeks leading up to test day. This builds stamina, helps you identify remaining weak areas, and reduces test anxiety through familiarity. Your tutor can recommend a practice schedule based on how much time you have and your current score, ensuring you're practicing strategically rather than just grinding through tests.
Absolutely. Test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or uncertain about problem-solving strategies, both of which tutoring directly addresses. As you master content and develop confidence with timed practice, anxiety naturally decreases. Your tutor can also teach you specific techniques like managing your pacing, staying focused, and building mental resilience during the actual test.
Look for tutors with strong math backgrounds, proven SAT success, and experience teaching test-taking strategies—not just math concepts. Ideally, they've helped multiple students improve their scores and understand the nuances of SAT Math question formats and timing. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who specialize in SAT prep and can demonstrate their track record with students.
Most students see solid progress with 2-3 tutoring sessions per week combined with independent practice between sessions. If you're starting 12+ weeks before test day, 1-2 sessions weekly may be sufficient; closer to test day, you might increase to 3-4 sessions. Your tutor will help you build a realistic schedule that balances tutoring, practice tests, and review based on your starting score and target improvement.
