Most students don't associate art history with math, but Elana's 1550 SAT came from the same close-reading discipline she applies to visual analysis — on the SAT Math section, she teaches students to dissect word problems and data tables with that same precision, pulling out exactly which values matter before setting up an equation. She's especially sharp on the geometry and coordinate-plane questions where sketching a quick diagram unlocks the answer faster than any formula.

I am a student and life-long learner who is currently between undergraduate and graduate school. In May 2015, I received a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Neuroscience and Biology from Centre College, and in September 2015, I will attend The Ohio State University to work towards a PhD in neuroscience. Throughout my academic journey, I have been guided by incredible teachers who have served as friends, mentors, and role models. I see teaching as a way to give back to my role models by passing down their knowledge to future generations of students. My well-rounded liberal arts education qualifies me to tutor a variety of subjects including algebra, biology, psychology, reading, and writing. As a neuroscience and biology double-major, I have an especially strong background in psychology and biology; however, I am also passionate about reading and writing as aptitude in these subjects forms the foundation of effective communication and comprehension of all other subjects. My teaching philosophy emphasizes individual learning and personal attention. I graduated from a small college where this philosophy is considered paramount, and by working as a teaching assistant there, I developed my skills as a teacher capable of providing a personalized education. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, reading poetry and fiction, hiking, and training for my first marathon.

Scoring 1530 on the SAT herself, Sarah knows the difference between understanding math and understanding SAT Math — the test rewards students who recognize problem structures and avoid common traps in areas like quadratic modeling, systems of equations, and data interpretation. She walks through each question type with an eye on both accuracy and the clock.

I am enrolled in Calculus and Biochemistry this semester. In my spare time, I walk in the Arboretum, play video games and deal with my medical school applications.

I am a Yale graduate with over 8 years experience tutoring students from a variety of backgrounds. I recently graduated from the Yale School of Public Health with a MPH concentrating in Epidemiology and Global Health. I also received my B.S. from Yale with a double major in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology and French. I have experience both leading group classes and working with students one on one. I will respond to a student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning style in order to help them succeed and make the most of our time together. I earned a perfect score of 36 on the ACT, 2280 on the SAT, and qualified as a National Merit Scholar on the PSAT. I look forward to working with you!

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.

Kevin earned a 1550 SAT alongside his 36 ACT, so he knows exactly where the two math sections diverge — the SAT leans harder into multi-step word problems, data interpretation, and algebraic reasoning that rewards setting up equations carefully over grinding through calculations. He breaks down the no-calculator section's trickiest question types, like systems of equations and quadratic modeling, into repeatable strategies. His engineering training at Case Western Reserve keeps him sharp on every concept the test covers.

Scoring 1570 on the SAT gave Vinay a sharp sense of where the Math section sets traps — especially in passport-to-advanced-math questions involving quadratics, nonlinear systems, and function transformations. His mathematics-economics degree from UCLA means he doesn't just know the shortcuts; he understands the algebra deeply enough to explain why each one works. Students walk away with both the conceptual grounding and the pacing instincts to finish confidently.

I am a rising sophomore at Columbia University in the City of New York, a member of the Ivy League, where I have compiled a track record of academic success across a variety of disciplines including my majors in History and Political Science. I currently maintain a 3.96 GPA, with especially strong success in social science related fields and English courses. I am living in our Writers House next year, a selective, competitive residential space for students interested in a career in writing.

Medical school admissions forced Hyerin to master the SAT herself — her 1470 composite means she's recently tackled the same algebra-heavy, time-pressured questions her students face. Her economics degree built the quantitative instincts that make the section's data-analysis and percent-change problems feel like second nature, and she teaches students to convert the SAT's deliberately tricky wording into straightforward arithmetic before solving. Rated 4.9 by students.

Biology and economics coursework means Sunny has spent years toggling between quantitative reasoning and data interpretation — the exact skill set the SAT Math section leans on hardest in its tables, scatterplots, and real-world modeling questions. He scored a 1550 on the SAT and is especially effective at teaching students to work through the algebra-heavy problems without a calculator by building number-sense habits that replace brute-force computation. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a current student at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in English and minoring in journalism and art history. I am very passionate about literature, writing and history, and I love sharing my knowledge and learning new things. In the past few years, I have worked with young children learning to read and high school Latin students, and I also love working with students on improving Standardized Test results. In my spare time, I love reading, music and anything active!
