Zachary
Certified SAT Tutor
Zachary
AM Dartmouth College
4+ Years Tutoring

Zachary's Dartmouth education and master's in political science built the exact skill set the SAT rewards — fast, precise reading of dense passages and tight analytical reasoning under time pressure. He scored a 1550 on the exam and uses that experience to teach concrete strategies for evidence-based reading questions and the algebra-heavy math section, with a step-by-step approach that makes each question type feel predictable rather than overwhelming.

Michael
BA UNLV
1+ Years Tutoring

Biology and chemistry coursework at UNLV built Michael's comfort with the data interpretation and experimental design questions that show up throughout the SAT Math section — the ones that look like science but are really testing whether you can read a table and set up an equation. He scored a 1570 and uses that experience to coach students through both the math and verbal sides, with particular attention to pacing and the evidence-based reading pairs where strong science students often overthink the answer choices.

Tim
BA Massachusetts Institute of Technology
6+ Years Tutoring

Studying computational neuroscience and philosophy at MIT means Tim lives at the intersection of quantitative reasoning and critical reading — exactly the skill split the SAT demands. He scored a 1560 and uses that experience to teach specific strategies for the trickiest question types, from no-calculator algebra to command-of-evidence pairs where both the answer and the supporting citation need to align. Rated 4.9 by students.

Deepal
BA University
10+ Years Tutoring

Deepal's approach to the SAT centers on efficiency — he's developed shortcut methods for the math section's algebra and data analysis questions that cut solving time significantly, freeing up minutes students can redirect to trickier problems. His 1570 SAT score backs up those strategies, and his biomedical engineering coursework at USC keeps his quantitative reasoning sharp. He also coaches students on the Writing and Language section's grammar patterns, drawing on the same principle he applies everywhere: if the standard method feels clunky, find a cleaner path to the answer.

Dylan
BA Northwestern University
1+ Years Tutoring

Northwestern's engineering curriculum forced Dylan to master the exact quantitative reasoning the SAT Math section demands — algebra, data analysis, and multi-step problem solving under pressure — while his broad humanities coursework sharpens his approach to the Reading and Writing sections. He scored a 1500 on the SAT and uses that experience to teach students how to spot the structural patterns behind each question type rather than relying on brute-force practice. Rated 5.0 by students.

Serena
BA University
6+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 1510 on the SAT herself, Serena knows the specific tricks that separate a good score from a great one — timing strategies on the Reading section, grammar rule patterns in Writing, and the algebra and data analysis concepts that dominate the Math portion. Her electrical engineering coursework at UNLV keeps her sharp on the quantitative side, while her love of English means she's equally comfortable breaking down evidence-based reading questions and rhetorical analysis passages.

Michelle
BA Tufts University
1+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 1530 on the SAT herself, Michelle built her test prep expertise further as a teaching assistant at an SAT prep center, where she drilled verbal, writing, and math strategies with students daily. She's particularly sharp on the Writing and Language section — breaking down sentence structure rules and grammar patterns so they become second nature rather than guesswork. Her Tufts International Relations background also gives her an edge on the reading-heavy passages that trip up so many test-takers.

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

What sets Kendra apart for SAT prep is that she's recently been through it — she scored a 1450 and knows exactly which pacing mistakes and second-guessing habits cost students points on test day. Her writing-heavy sociology coursework at Fordham keeps her sharp on the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing sections, where she teaches students to trace argument structure through paired passages. She also covers the math side, drawing on her comfort with algebra and data analysis across multiple math subjects.

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

Economics coursework at Ohio State's Honors College means Brian spends his weeks interpreting data sets and building quantitative arguments — exactly the skills the SAT Math section rewards, from algebraic modeling to data analysis. His 1470 SAT score and strength across both English and math subjects let him coach the full exam, connecting the grammar and evidence-based reasoning on the verbal side to the same logical patterns students already use in the quantitative sections.

Megan
BA St. John's University
1+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 1500 on the SAT gave Megan a sharp sense of where points are won and lost — particularly in the Evidence-Based Reading section, where pairing answer choices with specific line references trips up even strong readers. Her economics coursework at St. John's keeps her analytical reasoning sharp, and she breaks down both the math and verbal sections into repeatable strategies rather than relying on intuition.

Her biology training also sharpens the data-interpretation skills that show up in both the math and evidence-based reading sections, where students need to pull conclusions from graphs and tables quickly.
