Ingrid
BA University
4+ Years Tutoring

The ACT Math section covers an unusually wide range, from pre-algebra ratios all the way to matrices and trigonometric identities, and the real challenge is switching between them under pressure. Ingrid scored a 35 composite and teaches students to categorize each problem on sight, choosing the fastest solution path rather than defaulting to lengthy algebra every time.

Edward
BA University
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Erika
BA Creighton University
9+ Years Tutoring

Scoring well on ACT Math isn't about knowing advanced topics; it's about moving quickly and accurately through 60 questions that span Pre-Algebra to basic Trigonometry. Erika identifies which question types a student consistently loses time on — whether that's coordinate geometry, word problems, or matrix operations — and drills those specifically. She earned a 34 composite on the ACT herself.

Guillermo

5+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 32 ACT composite, Guillermo knows exactly where the Math section tries to trip students up — especially on coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and word problems that test setup more than computation. He teaches students to identify what each question is actually asking before reaching for a formula. Rated 5.0 by his students.

Erika
BA University
1+ Years Tutoring

I'm Erika, and I live in Blair, Nebraska. Tutoring students in math is a passion of mine. I believe a tutor must have the success of each unique student as her top priority. I am especially interested in helping my students who struggle a lot with math - to help them gain the confidence and ability to use their mathematical knowledge in their own personal situations outside the classroom. All students learn math in different ways, and I work really hard to read my students - to know what is or is not working and why. I try to be lighthearted and energetic in my teaching, and I try to build a relationship with each of my students so each of them knows I am interested in them as individuals, not just as math students.

Jeremy
BA Texas A & M University-College Station
10+ Years Tutoring

Engineering technology coursework is essentially applied ACT Math on repeat — algebra, trigonometry, unit conversions, and quick problem-solving under deadline pressure — so Jeremy brings a practical fluency to every question type on the 60-item section. He scored a 32 ACT composite and uses that experience to teach students how to read each problem for what's actually being tested, cutting through the extra wording that makes straightforward calculations feel harder than they are.

Scoring well on ACT Math means being comfortable across a wide spread of topics, from coordinate geometry and logarithms to probability and matrices, often in under a minute per question. Aaron's coursework in calculus and quantitative science gives him fluency with every concept the test covers, and he teaches students to identify which tool a problem calls for before they start calculating. He scored a 32 ACT composite and holds a 5.0 tutoring rating.

A self-described math lover who nearly switched his computer science major to mathematics, Matthew brings genuine enthusiasm to ACT Math prep. He tackles the concepts that trip students up most — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, and probability — by connecting each problem type to a small set of core strategies. His 32 ACT composite backs up an approach that's earned him a 4.9 student rating.

Oen
BA Grinnell College
8+ Years Tutoring

Every ACT Math question can be solved in under a minute if you recognize what it's really asking — and that recognition is a trainable skill. Oen, who earned a 32 ACT composite, teaches students to quickly classify problems by type (coordinate geometry, trigonometry, probability) and apply the most efficient solution path. His math and CS coursework at Grinnell means the underlying concepts are second nature, so he can zero in on where a student's approach is slowing them down.

Ritik
BA Purdue University-Main Campus
6+ Years Tutoring

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.

Dennis

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.

Eric
BA University of Michigan
1+ Years Tutoring

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.
