I'm a strong believer that education can be fun, and address learning with a sense of humor and a positive attitude. My approach to learning tends to be very communication-based, and often driven by how the client I'm working with feels they learn best. As a result, I tend to provide structure and guidance in a more flexible learning environment.

Dylan treats the ACT Science section for what it really is: a data-interpretation test that rarely requires outside science knowledge. He walks students through how to read conflicting-viewpoints passages, extract trends from graphs, and identify variables in experimental designs — all under serious time constraints. His own 34 ACT composite came from mastering exactly these skills.

I've worked as an educator for over a decade, thoroughly enjoy tutoring high school students, and can't wait to start working with you (or your student) towards persistent academic success! Feel free to reach out with any questions, https://linktr.ee/nickhh
I'm Heather, a social worker in Portland, OR. I graduated summa cum laude in 2018 from Willamette University, a liberal arts college on the West Coast, with a 4.0 GPA. I share this to let you know that I am passionate and committed to lifelong learning, and enjoy helping others along the same journey.
I'm Owen! I was born and raised in Portland, OR, but I currently live in Rhode Island, where I'm working towards a Bachelor's Degree at Brown University. If there's one thing to know about me, it's that I love to learn, no matter the subject. Learning is a life-long process that can take you anywhere in life. But this doesn't mean it's always easy. It would be my privilege to help you overcome the obstacles you encounter on this journey.
The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a data interpretation test dressed up in lab coats. Daniel teaches students to ignore the jargon, zero in on graph axes and table headers, and extract answers directly from the figures before even reading the experimental descriptions. His Socratic questioning style pushes students to articulate what the data actually shows, which builds the reasoning confidence this section demands.
Most students panic when they see ACT Science passages full of unfamiliar terminology, but the section is really a test of graph reading and experimental logic — not biology or chemistry knowledge. Marilyn scored a 34 composite and teaches students to ignore the jargon and focus on extracting trends from data tables, identifying control variables, and evaluating conflicting viewpoints. Once students see it as a reasoning exercise, their accuracy jumps.
I am a recent graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder. I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Biological Engineering with a minor in French. During my time at CU, I studied abroad in Paris, as well as being a Teaching Assistant for Chemistry, Biology, and Fluid Mechanics for engineers and often helped my peers with homework. During the summer and fall I teach percussion for a local high school marching band. While I tutor a variety of math and science topics, my favorite subjects are chemistry and physics, as I love exploring the ways in which the world works. Education is of the highest importance to me, and I wish to share this passion with my students. In my spare time, I like to read suspense novels, play a variety of string instruments, and play Legend of Zelda.
I am applying to medical schools to attend Fall 2016 and I like to play basketball, go backpacking and volunteer with youth in my free time.
The ACT Science section looks intimidating, but it's really a data-interpretation test disguised in lab coats. Nikita teaches students to ignore the scientific jargon and go straight to the graphs, tables, and experimental setups — extracting trends and relationships before reading a single question. That approach turns a section many students dread into one of their most improvable scores.
I am open to helping students practice speaking, reading, and writing without any judgment. I am open to helping you learn Chinese or Japanese no matter where you are in the learning process.
I am a soon-to-be college graduate of Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon! I will have a BA in English, with a minor in Theatre Studies. At Lewis & Clark, I have taken classes in Postcolonial Literature, Poetry Writing, Film & Literature, Milton, British Literature, & Modern American Literature. I am a candidate for Honors in the English department, and am finishing up my undergraduate thesis on Octavia Butler and Toni Morrison. I want to use my experience to help your student get excited about and engaged with literature! I love essay writing, and essay structure and editing is one of my favorite things to work on.
Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but the test is really asking them to read graphs, compare data trends, and evaluate conflicting hypotheses. Laura reframes each passage as a reading exercise with a scientific vocabulary layer, which takes the intimidation out of topics a student may never have studied in class. She scored a 32 ACT composite.
I'm a junior at the University of Michigan who loves to climb and code! Tutoring has always been a passion of mine as well - I love seeing my students grow and succeed both academically and personally!
Despite its name, the ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam — students who try to rely on biology or chemistry knowledge alone often run out of time. John treats each passage as a puzzle: read the axes, find the trend, answer the question. His 36 ACT composite and experience teaching both physics and chemistry mean he can also fill in the occasional outside-knowledge questions that catch other students off guard.
The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it's really about interpreting graphs, comparing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from conflicting data sets under time pressure. Ilesh treats it as a data-literacy drill, teaching students to extract the key variable from a figure in seconds rather than reading every word of the passage first. His own 36 composite backs up the approach.
Most students panic when they see an unfamiliar experiment on the ACT Science section, but the test is really about interpreting graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints under time pressure. Sugi's dual background in biochemistry and cognitive science — plus years of reading dense research literature in medical school — makes her especially effective at teaching students to extract data quickly without getting lost in scientific jargon. Her perfect 36 ACT speaks for itself.
I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam disguised as science — success depends on reading graphs, identifying trends, and evaluating conflicting hypotheses quickly and accurately. Anna scored a 36 ACT composite and, as a current MD/MBA student at Northwestern's Feinberg School of Medicine, brings genuine scientific literacy that makes parsing experimental passages second nature. Rated 5.0 by students.
I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.
The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam disguised with lab coats and beakers. Alex approaches it that way — teaching students to read graphs, compare experimental setups, and spot conflicting hypotheses without getting lost in unfamiliar terminology. As a medical student with a chemical engineering background and a 36 ACT composite, he knows exactly when the section requires outside science knowledge and when it doesn't.
The ACT Science section is less about knowing chemistry or biology and more about interpreting graphs, tables, and conflicting experimental viewpoints under time pressure. Sarah scored a 35 ACT composite and treats this section as a data-literacy exercise, teaching students to identify variables and trends quickly without getting distracted by unfamiliar scientific jargon. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands.
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!
The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a test of how quickly you can read graphs, interpret conflicting viewpoints, and pull the right data from dense passages. Eric scored a 36 ACT composite and teaches students to treat each passage like a business case: identify what's being measured, find the trend, and answer without overthinking. That systematic approach turns a section most students dread into one of their most reliable score boosters.
Most students overthink the ACT Science section because they assume it requires deep content knowledge — it doesn't. It's really a data interpretation exam that tests whether you can read graphs, compare experimental setups, and spot conflicting viewpoints in under a minute per question. Austin breaks each passage type into a specific reading strategy so students stop hunting for science they already know and start extracting the answers the figures already contain.
The ACT Science section is less about knowing biology or chemistry and more about reading graphs, interpreting experimental setups, and comparing competing hypotheses under time pressure. Edward's chemical engineering training at Michigan means data analysis is second nature to him — he teaches students to extract trends from figures before even reading the questions. Rated 4.8 by students, he brings a calm, systematic approach to what many test-takers find the most stressful section.
The ACT Science section isn't really a science test — it's a data interpretation exercise disguised as one. Christopher scored a 35 composite and teaches students to read graphs, compare experimental designs, and identify conflicting viewpoints quickly, drawing on his mechanical engineering background at Harvard to make scientific reasoning feel intuitive.
Treat the ACT Science section like a data-interpretation exercise, not a biology or chemistry quiz — that's the approach Benjamin teaches, and it's how he earned a perfect 36 composite. His computer science training makes him especially sharp at reading graphs, tables, and conflicting experimental designs quickly, and he walks students through the exact process for each passage type.
The ACT Science section looks intimidating, but it's really a test of how quickly students can pull data from graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints — not how much biology or chemistry they remember. Jiatian, who has spent years interpreting research data in medical school, teaches students to ignore the jargon and zero in on trends, variables, and experimental design. That shift in mindset alone often unlocks significant score gains.
The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it's really about reading graphs, interpreting conflicting viewpoints, and extracting trends from dense data tables under time pressure. Logan scored a 36 composite and trains students to ignore the intimidating terminology and zero in on what each figure actually shows. Once students see it as a data-literacy exercise, scores jump quickly.
I am an aspiring applied mathematician, with particular interest in image processing and climate science. I graduated in May 2017 from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelor's in physics and mathematics, and am beginning a PhD program in September 2017 at the University of Chicago in Computational and Applied Mathematics. I've tutored introductory physics students for three years and enjoyed it thoroughly, as a chance to help other students while revisiting fundamental concepts to enhance my own knowledge. I'm eager to continue reaching out and helping students of math and physics to succeed and, furthermore, to appreciate the beauty and power of these subjects.
I'm not tutoring, I love walking through New York for design inspiration and taking carpentry, metalworking, and illustration classes.
The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam dressed up in lab coats. Vansh — who earned a 36 composite — teaches students to read graphs, compare experimental setups, and identify conflicting hypotheses quickly, spending minimal time on the passage text itself. His engineering training at Georgia Tech reinforces the analytical reading skills this section actually rewards.
Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but the trick is that it's really a data-interpretation test disguised as science. Aleeza's biology background and 36 composite mean she can teach students to read graphs, compare experimental setups, and identify conflicting viewpoints quickly — without needing to actually know the science behind every passage.
Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but the test barely requires scientific knowledge — it's really about reading graphs, interpreting data tables, and comparing conflicting hypotheses. Asta treats each passage as a data-literacy exercise and teaches students to locate variables, identify trends, and answer questions without getting lost in technical jargon. Her 35 composite ACT score backs up the approach.
Most students overthink the ACT Science section because they treat it like a science test — but it's really about extracting trends from graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints under time pressure. As a biology researcher who interprets experimental data daily, Max reads these passages the way a scientist would: figure labels first, then axes, then relationships. That systematic approach, paired with his 36 ACT composite, makes the section far less intimidating.
I am a patient, intellectual, and calm college student at the University of Michigan passionate about tutoring others to improve their proficiency in a wide variety of subjects. I teach students by creating individualized plans that cater to the strengths and weaknesses of the student. I work hard and as long as it takes to ensure that the student derives maximum benefit. I love teaching a wide variety of subjects, and have a speciality in standardized tests.
I am a current sophomore at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where I am majoring in Biology as part of the 7 Year Accelerated Medical Program. I am also minoring in Healthcare Economics and Policy. My favorite subjects in school are Chemistry, Biology, and Math, but I also enjoy the process of writing and editing thought provoking essays. During high school, I spent time tutoring for the National Honor Society. My approach to tutoring is to teach the concepts in a simplistic manner and reinforcing the concepts while adding difficulty through effective practice problems. In my free time, I have recently found myself reading, working out, drawing, and spending time with my siblings.
The ACT Science section is less about knowing biology or chemistry and more about reading graphs, interpreting conflicting viewpoints, and extracting data under a tight clock. Bidyut — who scored a 36 composite and studies biomedical engineering — teaches students a systematic method for parsing dense passages and tables so they spend their time answering, not re-reading.
I am currently a student at Duke University studying Biomedical Engineering and Economics. Just a little bit about me and some of my interests. Some of my favorite academic interests include memoirs and modern classics. I think Catcher in the Rye is still one of my all time favorite books but Percy Jackson, a modern classic, is up there too. Beyond academics, I take great guilty pleasure in watching TV shows such as Westworld, Sherlock, How I Met Your Mother, and even The Bachelorette when I'm at a low point.
