Eileen
Certified ACT Tutor
Eileen
BA Vanderbilt University
5+ Years Tutoring

Eileen's neuroscience pre-med track at Vanderbilt keeps her sharp across the ACT's full spread — the Science section reads like her coursework, while her college essay and literature tutoring means English and Reading aren't afterthoughts. She earned a perfect 36 composite and uses that experience to show students exactly how each section rewards different habits, building custom study plans around where points are actually being lost.

Kerr
Certified ACT Tutor
Kerr
BA Vanderbilt University
8+ Years Tutoring

Kerr's computer science training at Vanderbilt sharpened the logical reasoning and pattern-matching that drive the ACT's Math and Science sections, while his breadth across literature, essay editing, and grammar means the English and Reading halves don't get neglected. He earned a perfect 36 composite and uses that across-the-board command to zero in on the specific question types each student keeps getting wrong — then rebuilds the approach from scratch rather than layering tricks on top of confusion. Rated 4.9 by students.

Charles
BA Yale University
1+ Years Tutoring

Mechanical engineering at Yale means Charles spends his days solving physics and calculus problems under pressure — solid practice for the ACT's Math and Science sections, where translating real-world scenarios into quick calculations is half the battle. He earned a 34 composite and applies that same engineering mindset to the English and Reading sides, treating grammar rules as systems and passages as data to decode efficiently.

Daniel
BA Vanderbilt University
9+ Years Tutoring

A 36 composite means Daniel didn't just ace the ACT — he maxed it, which required near-perfect execution across Math, Science, English, and Reading under serious time pressure. He teaches section-specific pacing strategies, like how to triage the Science passages by graph complexity and when to skip to the questions before reading the text. His engineering background at Vanderbilt also gives him a particularly sharp edge on the Math section's trickiest trigonometry and coordinate geometry problems.

Michelle
BA Duke University
4+ Years Tutoring

Duke's computer science program trained Michelle to think in systems and logic, which she applies to the ACT by mapping each section's question types into decision trees — when to solve, when to eliminate, when to move on. Her 36 composite means she's mastered every section at the ceiling, but her sociology background is what makes her especially effective at unpacking the Reading and English passages where tone and argument structure decide the answer. Rated 5.0 by students.

Nat
BA Vanderbilt University
9+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 35 composite on the ACT means Nat performed at the top of every section — Math, English, Reading, and Science — and he brings that all-around consistency to his test prep approach. As a math and computer science major at Vanderbilt, he's especially sharp on the data interpretation and algebra-heavy questions that trip up students in the mid-score range. He breaks each section into repeatable strategies, from pacing on Science passages to identifying grammar patterns in English.

Amelia
BA Vanderbilt University
8+ Years Tutoring

I am a freshman at Vanderbilt University studying biochemistry and involved in analytical chemistry research. Despite my studies being very science oriented, I also enjoy studying English and the humanities. I'd be happy to tutor you in any of these areas!

Dennis
MS Vanderbilt University • BA Grinnell College
1+ Years Tutoring

Graduate training in Chemical and Physical Biology at Vanderbilt means Dennis doesn't just coach the ACT Science section — he actually reads those dense experimental passages the way a researcher would, pulling the relevant data without getting lost in jargon. That same analytical precision carries across to Reading and English, where his broad interests in literature, philosophy, and writing keep him sharp on rhetorical questions and passage analysis. He scored a 34 composite and holds a 5.0 rating from students.

Isaac
BA University of Denver
5+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 35 composite on the ACT gave Isaac firsthand insight into the pacing traps and question structures that trip students up across all four sections. His biology background makes him especially sharp on the Science section, where he teaches students to read data displays and conflicting viewpoints passages like a scientist — quickly identifying variables and trends without getting bogged down in content they don't need. He also brings strong skills to the English and Reading sections, breaking down grammar rules and passage-based reasoning in ways that translate directly to score gains.

Rachel
BA University of Michigan
1+ Years Tutoring

Rachel's math degree anchors her ACT Math prep, but her real range shows in the English, Reading, and essay editing work she does daily — meaning she doesn't hand off half the test to someone else. She scored a 32 composite and uses her cross-subject fluency to build section-by-section plans that address each student's actual weak spots, whether that's trigonometry on the Math section or rhetorical questions buried in English passages. Rated 4.8 by students.

Teo
BA Vanderbilt University
8+ Years Tutoring

Teo's triple-major in math and computer science means the ACT Math section is almost trivially easy for him — so sessions focus on the English, Reading, and Science sections where most 30-to-36 jumps actually happen. His perfect 36 composite came from treating Science as pure graph reading and English as a finite set of grammar rules worth memorizing cold, and he drills both until students can execute under real time pressure.

Alexander
BA Vanderbilt University
8+ Years Tutoring

History and business at Vanderbilt means Alexander spends his days building arguments from evidence and analyzing dense texts — the exact muscles the ACT's Reading and English sections test hardest. His 1510 SAT and 32 ACT composite back up a prep approach that extends comfortably into Math and Science, where he teaches students to strip wordy problems down to what's actually being asked before answering.
