John's English and Drama training sharpened the close-reading and rhetorical analysis skills that the PSAT's Evidence-Based Reading section rewards — identifying how authors structure arguments, use tone shifts, and deploy evidence across paired passages. His 36 ACT and experience teaching both SAT Math and SAT Reading mean he tackles the full exam, including the algebra-heavy no-calculator section where students often stumble on multi-step word problems. Rated 4.9 by students.

A perfect 1600 on the SAT means Sandra already knows the test family inside and out — and the PSAT is built on the same blueprint, just calibrated for earlier readiness. She breaks down the math sections by concept cluster (linear vs. nonlinear models, ratios, data analysis) and teaches the evidence-based reading strategies that turn tricky paired-passage questions into straightforward eliminations. Rated 5.0 by students, she's a strong pick for anyone targeting National Merit qualification.

I'm starting my junior year at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. I'm currently getting my degree in biology with a concentration in health and human disease, global health, and a minor in French. I love reading, traveling, learning and helping others learn! I have experience tutoring high school and elementary school students in math, science, and English and I love tutoring in each subject equally. Eventually, I see myself going to medical school and researching topics related to viral diseases which I've been interested in since a very young age. I'm very passionate about the subjects I teach and hope to pass my passion on to the individuals I tutor!

Rakhi's applied math degree means the PSAT's quantitative sections — Heart of Algebra, Passport to Advanced Math, and the data-analysis questions that require interpreting tables without a calculator — play directly to her training. But she also covers the Writing and Language section, where her 1550 SAT experience translates into teaching students how to spot punctuation and transition errors in context rather than relying on ear alone. Rated 4.8 by students.

I am a fourth year undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering Honors with minors in Computer Science and Business. I have always been passionate about helping others by continuing the chain of mentorship that I received and helping others avoid the same mistakes I once made. Prior to University, I spent my spare time spreading environmental awareness to elementary students, coaching middle school basketball teams, and guiding nascent MathCounts and Science Olympiad programs. Since arriving at UT Austin, I have had the privilege of teaching a classroom of middle schoolers for a semester as part of the UTeach Outreach program. I am most passionate about Math, Computer Science, and the college application process. In my experience helping struggling students prepare their applications for admissions, I have had the most fun reviewing essays and revising resumes. I also enjoy sharing tips and tricks to solving any Standardized Math Test questions! I truly believe education is the key to a better future, and it cannot be taken for granted because of the unequal opportunities that others face. Outside of academia, I enjoy working out, hiking, playing sports with my friends, and showing people new songs!

Game theory with advanced middle schoolers in Hong Kong, an economics degree from Brown, a 1570 SAT — Carter's background means he understands both the quantitative and verbal sides of the PSAT at a structural level. He's particularly sharp on the Heart of Algebra questions that require translating word problems into equations without a calculator, drawing on the applied math training that ran alongside his economics coursework. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am currently a third-year student majoring in Biology and a part of the Health Science Scholars Honors program at the University of Texas at Austin. I have experience tutoring high school and middle school students for the past couple of years in a variety of subjects and my favorite ones include sciences such as biology and chemistry, as well as ACT/SAT/PSAT test prep. I firmly believe in the value of good education and hope to inspire that same positivity in others.

I am now on my second). I have always valued education but at times saw that teaching methods did not adapt appropriately to the student. There is more than one way to learn material. Because of that I hope to spend some time with students, helping them get the test scores that will allow them to get into their dream school. Throughout my high school and college career I gained extensive experience in tutoring members of my rugby team, fellow classmates and friends. Regarding the subjects I have taught- I am familiar with math all the way up to Algebra 2 (including ACT and SAT Math), I have helped many students prepare for the SAT and ACT. Many times smart students have issues with standardized tests due to improper test taking strategies. Every student has unique strengths and weaknesses, I focus on refining those strengths, minimizing those weaknesses and combining the proper test taking strategies in order to achieve the scores that student needs to get into the school they want.

I am able to tutor on a variety of subjects, but I'm especially passionate about test prep! I'm currently traveling around Europe and South America, before I start law school at the University of Texas this fall.

Kathleen's English and Anthropology background at Hamilton means she's spent years doing exactly what the PSAT's reading passages demand — analyzing how authors from different disciplines construct arguments and use evidence to support claims. She's currently pursuing a master's in Education with a 7-12 English certification, so she knows how to teach the Writing and Language section's grammar-in-context questions as logical patterns rather than arbitrary rules. Her 1510 SAT and 5.0 student rating back that up.

Jennifer's Education and Child Studies training means she thinks about *how* students process test questions — not just what the right answers are — which changes the game on the PSAT's Writing and Language section, where grammar rules only make sense if you can read them in context. Her 1550 SAT shows she's already conquered the test architecture the PSAT is built from, and her theatre background sharpens her close-reading instincts for the evidence-based passages where tone and authorial intent drive the correct answer. Rated 4.9 by students.

I'm a recent graduate from Lewis and Clark College. I completed my BA in Anthropology with a Linguistics focus, and I hope to continue these interests into a Masters in a couple years. I grew up in Austin, TX swimming and hiking every chance I got, and I've since moved to San Marcos, TX. I love tutoring students, and seeing the progress we can make together. Learning is all about finding the right way to piece together concepts and practice to work with your unique brain. Feel free to ask me any questions!

Katelyn's psychology background gives her an unusual advantage on the PSAT — she understands how test-takers fall into predictable cognitive traps, especially on evidence-based reading questions where the second-best answer is designed to feel right. Her 1540 SAT means she's already navigated the full test architecture the PSAT mirrors, and she pairs that with strong math coverage across the algebra and data-analysis sections that make up the quantitative half of the exam.

Natalie's double English degree from Cornell makes her particularly sharp on the PSAT's Writing and Language section, where students need to catch grammar errors embedded in full passages and evaluate whether a sentence actually strengthens an author's argument. She also teaches the evidence-based reading questions by showing students how to physically trace claims back to specific lines — a close-reading habit she built across years of literary analysis. Her 1560 SAT and 5.0 rating back up the approach.

Leah scored a 1490 on the SAT and has spent years breaking down standardized test logic for students — the kind of question patterns, trap answers, and passage-reading shortcuts that make the PSAT feel predictable instead of overwhelming. Her Ph.D. work in American Studies at UT Austin means the Evidence-Based Reading passages, especially those dealing with historical documents and social science arguments, play directly to her strengths. Rated 4.9 by students, she treats PSAT prep as a skill set to build, not just a practice-test grind.

I am a sophomore, English and Computer Science double major at Carleton College who is ecstatic about teaching and spreading my love of learning. I am also greatly interested in sociology and gender studies, and have yet to decide if I will minor in one of those fields, too. I love helping students discover a passion for reading and expressing themselves through writing. My favorite areas to tutor are those having to do with English; I enjoy everything from AP Literature to essay writing for class. When I'm not at school or tutoring, I spend my time reading, playing piano and guitar, and rock climbing.

I am a law student seeking to help fund my living expenses while I go to school. Before I entered law school, while I was getting my master's degree, I tutored a variety of high school subjects and the SAT and ACT. I enjoy tutoring immensely, and after nearly eight years of doing it, I have developed a repertoire of tricks that help my students learn more easily. I particularly enjoy tutoring high school math and physics, Spanish, and literature, but I have experience in most subjects. I know many, many words :-)

I'm a data science major with a focus on economics at the University of Rochester. I'm interested in tutoring students in mathematics and/or computer science, as I enjoy both subjects thoroughly, and think that a good understanding of those subjects is useful to anyone, no matter their interests. I also do tutoring for AP/IB exams, SAT, and ACT because I think it's critically important for people to get into the best college they can for as cheap as possible, and those exams are the basis of that.

I'm a recent graduate from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering (Hook 'em Horns!). I've been involved with teaching K-12 for 3 years now during my college career and have had a passion for teaching ever since my first job in high school at a math tutoring company. I scored well on both the SAT and the ACT thanks to many prep courses for the SAT and adequate prep materials for the ACT. In high school, my favorite subjects were by far Math, Biology and Spanish, and I made sure to apply my love for those subjects through studying Biomedical Engineering with a Spanish minor. I have also scored well on the MCAT in hopes of going to medical school someday.

I'm a UH senior right now (majoring in political science), and I'm planning to go to law school next fall. I enjoy reading, puzzles, and musicals about Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton.

I'm a graduate student at UT Austin's LBJ School of Public Affairs, currently pursuing my master's degree in global policy studies. I have a BA in political science from Southwestern University. After graduation, I studied Mandarin Chinese for a year in Taiwan and then went backpacking through China.

I'm Atharva and I attend The University of Texas at Austin! I am currently majoring in computational engineering, which is essentially a mix of math, computer science, and aerospace engineering. I have worked as a math tutor for around 3 years, and I have seen students improve their scores significantly in their classes and standardized tests. I especially enjoy tutoring math since I strongly believe it can be very interesting if taught in an engaging way rather than straight out of a dull textbook. I believe I have this ability to make my tutoring sessions more interactive and productive, and I love being able to help students understand the intuition behind the concepts they learn in class instead of making them simply memorize them.

I'm a sophomore undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Austin studying Biology! Though I am a science major and love to tutor high school biology and chemistry, I also enjoy teaching math topics, such as Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Pre Calculus, and SAT (including PSAT) Prep topics, such as SAT Reading, SAT Writing, and SAT Essay. I would love to get to know you and your learning style to allow me to aid your learning as successfully as possible!

Scoring a 1500 on the SAT means Bonita already knows the exact question styles and math concepts the PSAT throws at students — from passport-to-advanced-math problems involving quadratics and nonlinear systems to the evidence-based reading traps that cost easy points. As a physics and math major at UT Austin, she breaks down the quantitative reasoning behind both sections in a way that builds real test-day confidence. Rated 4.5 by students.

I am currently a Biology major at the University of Texas at Austin. I am Pre-med and also hoping to receive my teaching certificate for composite science in the fall.

I am a graduate from Ursinus College in Pennsylvania. I received my degrees in Psychology, Spanish, and Neuroscience. I have spent my time since college mentoring, tutoring, and promoting healthy lifestyles for high school students. I have enjoyed helping all age groups learn - from kids, to college students, to adults. I tutor a wide variety of subjects including math, Spanish, ESL, and test prep. I really enjoy tutoring geometry and algebra or SAT prep. My tutoring strengths include finding multiple ways to explain things for my students and giving real value to the learning process so that information can be retained. Outside of the academic world, I love to listen to and make music. I play volleyball, rugby, and soccer in my free time.

I am currently a student at the University of Texas at Austin studying Chemical Engineering on a Pre-Medicine track while minoring in Business in the Cockrell School of Engineering. For the past 8 years, I have tutored students in all levels of math ranging from toddlers to high school students studying AP Calculus. I have worked for other tutoring agencies and also tutored through my local school district itself as well. My favorite subject since I was little has always been math! Aside from math, I also teach other subjects such as english and Spanish and others. I have worked with all kinds of students, including those with special needs or no prior knowledge in the subject. In my free time I enjoy reading, running, dancing, and spending time with my friends and family.

I am multilingual. I love teaching Mathematics, Sciences, English, History, Writing...you name it. My philosophy is that the most effective teaching comes from knowing how my student learns, and meeting them where they are. I want to instill a love of learning, but that will not happen if I don't get to know my student.

Laila's math degree means she can tear through the PSAT's no-calculator section — the part where students who rely on their graphing calculator suddenly have to think through Heart of Algebra and Passport to Advanced Math problems by hand. Her 1480 SAT shows she's navigated the full test architecture the PSAT mirrors, and she uses that experience to teach pacing strategies alongside the actual algebra and data-analysis content.

I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering at the top-rated University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and am on the Dean's list. I am a National AP Scholar and was commended by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. I am a competitive swimmer and love to 3D model, do puzzles, and personal projects in my free time. I have always gravitated towards STEM topics and grew to love them as I learned more about them.

I am Aayush! I am from Austin, Texas. I have a degree in Mathematics with a minor in Actuarial Sciences. I have taught math for 6 years now. My expertise ranges from addition all the way up to calculus and statistics. I make math fun and enjoyable to do! I really look forward to teaching y'all!

I am pursuing dual Master's degrees from the University of Texas in Public Health and Social Work. As a born-and-raised Austinite, my interests include practicing yoga, sampling local food trailers, attending live concerts, and – perhaps most of all – cheering on my beloved Texas Longhorns in football.

I am “HQ” (Highly Qualified) certified to teach Social Studies for grades 7-12. I currently teach a sophomore level ethics class at St. Edwards University. I taught several classes at The University of Texas at Austin as a Doctoral Candidate, where I also earned my M.A. in Philosophy. At the University of Southern California, I earned my B.A. with Departmental Honors along with the Discovery Scholar’s award for excellence in independent research. I have been tutoring and teaching for eleven years, with a primary emphasis on developing my students’ writing and critical thinking skills.

I am a recent college graduate who loves teaching and helping students learn. I have experience teaching English in Argentina, as well as experience as a teaching assistant for various subjects at the Summer Institute for the Gifted.

I am a second-year graduate student in the Steve Hicks School of Social Work program at the University of Texas at Austin pursing a Masters in Social Work. I also attended UT-Austin for my undergraduate years, where I majored in psychology, minored in sociology, and received a creative writing certificate. I have worked at the University Writing Center at UT for the past year, where I tutor undergraduates in writing skills. I review papers in all subjects and of all types, including research papers, lab reports, persuasive essays, creative writing, and post-undergraduate school applications. I also worked with Communities in Schools at a Title I elementary school on writing, grammar, reading, and comprehension. Writing and English are my favorite subjects to tutor because I love to see the satisfaction on a student's face when they can finally take all of the puzzle pieces of ideas floating around in their head and put them in a tangible form. Getting those thoughts on paper proves to a student that their words are worth being read and heard. My teaching philosophy is taking a collaborative, non-directive, and non-evaluative approach in helping my students cultivate writing skills and confidence that they will have for future writing endeavors. Outside of academia, I love movies, theater, playwriting, basketball, and anything outside!

I am from the Boulder, Colorado area, and graduated from the University of Colorado, where I studied English and business, while also completing a four-year study on ethical leadership. Additionally, I pursued Honors distinction through a study of James Joyce and interned with now U.S. Senator Mark Udall during his tenure in the House of Representatives. I worked with Crocs Footwear at their global headquarters as an account manager for five years in account management, before relocating to Austin, Texas, in 2011, when I began pursuing a career in education. I am currently certified as a teacher in Texas in six different subjects, including Language Arts, Social Studies, Math, Business, and Special Education. I enjoy all of these subjects, but am particularly passionate about language arts. My philosophy of education centers around the learner in all aspects, teaching to the whole student and embracing what makes that student unique.

I am a recent graduate from the University of California at Santa Barbara, where I was a part of the Honors Program and graduated with High Honors. I have always loved learning and academics in general, and will hopefully soon be pursing a graduate degree in Political Science.

I am an outgoing, organized, friendly and responsible person. I am fluent in Mandarin and English, and I'd love to help more people to know and learn about Mandarin. Most people think Mandarin is hard, but I will say it is super beautiful, interesting and worth learning. I hope you are interested in it and thank you for visiting my profile:)

Samir's biochemistry background means he's comfortable on both sides of the PSAT — the data-heavy math questions where students need to interpret tables and graphs without a calculator, and the evidence-based reading passages that mirror the dense scientific writing he's been processing since undergrad. He teaches the Writing and Language section by zeroing in on how answer choices change a sentence's meaning, not just its grammar. Rated 5.0 by students.

Jake scored a 1440 on the SAT, and much of his prep strategy carries directly into the PSAT — particularly the math side, where his electrical engineering background makes the algebra, data analysis, and problem-solving questions second nature. He breaks down the timing and question structure so students learn to spot trap answers quickly and allocate minutes where they matter most. Rated 5.0 by students.
