Karthik
Certified ACT Tutor
Karthik
BA University
4+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 34 on the ACT gave Karthik firsthand insight into the pacing traps and question structures that cost students easy points — especially on the Math and Science sections, where his STEM background makes him particularly effective. He breaks each section into repeatable strategies, from eliminating answer choices on English passages to reading ACT Science graphs without getting lost in the experimental setup.

Tim
Certified ACT Tutor
Tim
BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
6+ Years Tutoring

Studying computational neuroscience and philosophy at MIT means Tim's daily work spans quantitative reasoning, data analysis, and argumentative writing — a combination that maps almost perfectly onto the ACT's four sections. He earned a 34 composite and uses his experience teaching everything from pre-algebra through AP Calculus and psychology to build section-specific strategies rather than generic test tips. Rated 4.9 by students.

Deepal
BA University
10+ Years Tutoring

Most ACT prep treats every section the same way, but Deepal's approach leans into something specific: finding faster solution paths. His biomedical engineering training at USC means the Math and Science sections are second nature, and his 34 composite shows he can handle the English and Reading sides just as well — but students consistently point to his alternative methods for solving problems as what actually saves them time on test day.

Kendra
Current Undergrad, Sociology/Criminology Fordham University
10+ Years Tutoring

Kendra scored a 35 composite on the ACT, putting her in the 99th percentile — and she did it recently enough to remember exactly which strategies worked under real testing conditions. She breaks the exam into manageable pieces, from pacing on the Reading section to spotting grammar patterns in English and eliminating trap answers in Science. As a current Fordham sophomore, she's close enough to the test-taking experience to know what actually clicks for students still in the thick of it.

Seven years of tutoring math and science from middle school through college means Cassandra has already taught most of the content the ACT tests — she just reframes it around the exam's specific timing and format demands. Her 33 composite and biology degree keep the Science and Math sections grounded in real understanding, while her AP English and essay editing work ensures the Reading and English strategies aren't an afterthought.

Brian
BA Ohio State University-Main Campus
9+ Years Tutoring

Studying economics with a math minor in Ohio State's Honors College means Brian works with data, arguments, and quantitative reasoning every day — the exact skill set the ACT tests across all four sections. He scored a 33 composite and tutors both the math-heavy and verbal sides of the exam, using his college essay and grammar teaching experience to sharpen students' approach to English and Reading while his calculus background anchors the Math section's toughest problems.

Justin
BA Pomona College
10+ Years Tutoring

A 33 ACT composite gives Justin credibility, but what sets him apart is the range behind that score — his anthropology and writing background means he can coach the English and Reading sections with real depth, then pivot to Math and Science strategy in the same session. He teaches students to manage pacing across all four sections, especially the Science passage-reading approach that trips up so many test-takers. Rated 5.0 by students.

Lauryn
BA University
5+ Years Tutoring

Lauryn's history major means she already thinks in terms of evidence and argument — skills that translate directly to the ACT's Reading and English sections, where students often lose points by skimming past rhetorical structure. Her 32 composite and experience across math, science, and writing let her cover all four sections plus the optional Writing test, with particular strength in teaching students how to build and defend written arguments under time pressure. Rated 5.0 by students.

2+ Years Tutoring

I love teaching patiently and accurately to achieve concrete goals. A National Merit scholar, a college student, and an aspiring writer, I encourage high achievement and creativity in all my students. With 2+ years of tutoring experience and 1+ years of teaching experience, both in-person and online, I will gladly adapt to your educational and personal needs! Primarily, I tutor the SAT and ACT.

I can also tutor competitive Lincoln-Douglas and policy debate as well as Impromptu speech at a middle/high school level or general public speaking and argumentation. My favorite subjects are English, which I am pursuing at UNLV, and Speech & Debate, which I teach at a private school. I have an AP Honors Diploma and AP Scholar with Distinction Award from high school.

Sarah
BA Columbia University in the City of New York
4+ Years Tutoring

Neuroscience at Columbia trains a specific kind of thinking — pulling signal from noise in dense, data-heavy material — and that's essentially what the ACT Science and Reading sections demand. Sarah scored a 35 composite and applies that same analytical rigor across all four sections, teaching students to decode unfamiliar passages quickly and avoid the second-guessing that burns time. Rated 5.0 by students.

William
BA Boston University
14+ Years Tutoring

A 34 ACT composite paired with a perfect 1600 SAT means William knows standardized testing inside and out — the pacing traps, the answer-choice patterns, and the specific reading and grammar concepts that repeat across sections. His English degree gives him a particular edge on the English and Reading portions, where he teaches students to identify rhetorical strategies and eliminate distractors quickly rather than second-guessing themselves. He also brings structured approaches to the Math and Science sections that keep non-STEM students from losing points they shouldn't.

Alyssa
BA Texas Christian University • Doctor of Science, Physical Therapy Texas Woman's University
4+ Years Tutoring

Alyssa's doctoral work in physical therapy means she's still deep in the kind of scientific reading and data analysis the ACT Science section throws at students — but her psychology minor and 4.0 undergrad GPA point to someone equally comfortable dissecting English passages and tackling the Math section's trickier algebra and trig problems. She earned a 35 composite and builds prep around diagnosing each student's weakest question types first, then drilling those until they stop costing points. Rated 5.0 by students.

Ashley
BA Oral Roberts University
14+ Years Tutoring

Biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, Spanish, and college-level math — Ashley's subject range means she's not faking fluency in any ACT section, which matters when a student's weak spot shifts from Science to English mid-prep. She earned a 35 composite and uses that cross-discipline foundation to diagnose exactly which question types are dragging a score down, then builds targeted drills around those gaps instead of running through generic practice tests.

Astoria
BA Washington University in St. Louis
6+ Years Tutoring

Going from a 25 to a perfect 36 ACT gave Astoria something most tutors don't have — a precise map of where scores stall and which strategies break through each plateau. She teaches section-specific pacing techniques, particularly for Science (treating passages as data interpretation puzzles) and English (spotting grammar patterns without overthinking). Rated 4.8 by students, she tailors her approach based on where each student's composite currently sits.

Sydney
BA Carnegie Mellon University
8+ Years Tutoring

A dual degree in Vocal Performance and Creative Writing from Carnegie Mellon means Sydney's strengths don't cluster on one side of the ACT — she's equally at home dissecting rhetorical structure in Reading and English as she is working through the Math section's trickier back-half problems. Her 35 composite and 1600 SAT back that up, and her Phi Beta Kappa-level discipline shows in how she builds section-by-section study plans that zero in on the specific question types each student keeps getting wrong.

Scoring well on the ACT is less about mastering five separate subjects and more about learning one skill: how to attack timed, multiple-choice questions with a plan. Jiatian builds individualized study schedules that target each student's weakest sections first, setting concrete score milestones along the way. A Rice University graduate currently finishing medical school, she's taken enough high-stakes exams to know exactly what disciplined, strategic prep looks like in practice.

Anna

8+ Years Tutoring

Northwestern's Honors Program in Medical Education compressed Anna's premed and MD training into a single accelerated track — meaning she learned early how to master large volumes of material under tight time constraints, which is essentially what the ACT demands across all four sections. She scored a perfect 36 composite and uses that experience to teach students how to allocate their attention strategically, particularly on the Reading and Science sections where running out of time costs more points than content gaps.
