I'm trying to work on personal projects. I really enjoy snowboarding, and have been doing that since the third grade. I also enjoy playing sports and video games.

Scoring high on ACT Math means handling 60 questions in 60 minutes, which leaves no room for second-guessing coordinate geometry or trigonometric identities. Tim's computational science training at MIT gives him a toolkit of shortcuts and pattern-recognition strategies that turn time-consuming problems into quick solves. He earned a 34 ACT composite and zeroes in on the higher-numbered questions where most students lose points.

Deepal scored a 34 ACT composite while developing a habit of solving problems multiple ways — finding the fastest route through each question type rather than defaulting to whatever method was taught in class. That flexibility is especially useful on the math section's later items, where a non-obvious approach to trigonometry or logarithm questions can save a minute or more. As a biomedical engineering student at USC, the underlying math is something he uses daily.

Scoring well on ACT Math means moving fast through 60 questions that span pre-algebra through trigonometry, so knowing the content isn't enough — you need efficient problem-solving instincts. Kendra earned a 35 ACT composite and teaches students to identify which questions deserve full work and which can be solved in under 30 seconds with the right shortcut. She covers the high-frequency topics like coordinate geometry, functions, and probability that make up the bulk of the test.

Scoring a 33 ACT composite required nailing the Math section's later questions, where coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and logarithms show up under serious time pressure. Brian teaches pacing strategies alongside the actual math, so students learn which problems to attack first and which formulas to have at their fingertips. His economics and math coursework keeps these concepts fresh.

Every ACT Math section follows a predictable difficulty curve, and Cassandra teaches students exactly where their points are hiding — whether that's coordinate geometry in the mid-range or matrices and logarithms near the end. She scored a 33 ACT composite and also teaches pre-algebra through calculus, so she can quickly identify which foundational gaps are costing a student time. Her approach emphasizes strategic shortcuts for problems that look harder than they actually are.

I'm currently applying to be a Ph.D. candidate in the hopes of becoming a professor in the social sciences, as my greatest passion is helping students harness their potential and realize their success!

Scoring a 32 ACT composite, Lauryn knows the math section's mix of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry well enough to identify which question types a student loses time on. She builds targeted practice around those weak spots — whether it's coordinate geometry, word problems involving rates, or function notation — so students spend test day working efficiently instead of guessing.

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 have the most experience in tutoring English (up to 12th grade) and math (up to Algebra II/pre-calc). 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.

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.

A year as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave Richard a deep bench of ways to explain concepts when the first approach doesn't click. On ACT Math, he zeroes in on the topics that appear most frequently in the 50s and 60s — coordinate geometry, trigonometric identities, matrices, and logarithms — where most students leave points on the table. His 36 composite confirms he can execute under the test's tight time pressure.

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.

Scoring a 36 ACT composite gave Sharan firsthand insight into the math section's quirks — questions that look complicated but collapse once you spot the right property of exponents or the shortcut through a system of equations. She teaches students to identify question types quickly and apply efficient strategies, especially on the later problems where time pressure is fiercest.

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.

I'm a recent college graduate with degrees in Biological Sciences and Russian from Ohio University. During my time there, I tutored students in a variety of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and Spanish. In addition, I worked as both a peer advisor and teaching assistant, which gives me insight into the learning strategies and study skills that students need to succeed. As a tutor, I like to focus on doing actual problems with students because it is the most effective way to immediately identify their strengths and weaknesses and to address them. In my free time, I like to lift weights, read books, and spend time with my friends.

Scoring a 36 composite on the ACT required Benjamin to move through the Math section's 60 questions with speed and precision, from basic proportions all the way to matrices and trigonometric identities. He teaches the pacing strategies and pattern-recognition shortcuts that let students avoid getting bogged down on mid-section problems and still reach the harder questions with time to spare.

I am 22 years old and just graduated from the University of Kentucky with a double degree in French and Biochemistry. I have been a tutor for over a year now at UK's tutoring center. I believe that anyone can learn anything with enough practice and encouragement, and I love helping students overcome challenges and gain more self-confidence!

Scoring well on ACT Math isn't about knowing advanced topics; it's about solving pre-algebra through basic trig quickly and accurately under a tight 60-minute clock. Kerr, who scored a 36 composite, teaches students to identify which problems deserve full work and which can be shortcut through estimation or back-solving. His economics and CS studies at Vanderbilt keep him fluent in the quantitative reasoning the test demands.

Benjamin scored a 36 on the ACT, and his approach to the Math section treats it as a strategy game as much as a math test. He teaches students to recognize problem types on sight — coordinate geometry, matrices, logarithms, trigonometry — and match each with the fastest solution method, whether that's back-solving, plugging in values, or a direct calculation. That efficiency is what turns a good math student into a top scorer.

Competition math throughout high school gave Tracy a toolkit most ACT Math tutors don't have — she spots shortcuts in coordinate geometry and trigonometry problems that save 30-plus seconds per question. That efficiency matters on a 60-question, 60-minute section where running out of time is the most common score killer. Tracy scored a 36 ACT composite and knows exactly where the difficulty spikes in questions 40-60.

I'm not tutoring, I love walking through New York for design inspiration and taking carpentry, metalworking, and illustration classes.
