Scoring a 35 on the ACT means Kendall knows how the math section tests familiar concepts in unfamiliar packaging — a coordinate geometry question disguised as a word problem, or a trigonometry identity buried inside an algebra setup. Kendall's approach zeroes in on recognizing those disguises quickly so students spend their time solving, not decoding. Holds a 5.0 student rating.

Biophysics at the undergraduate level means Benjin is constantly toggling between calculus, algebra, and data analysis — so the math concepts spread across the ACT's 60 questions feel like familiar territory rather than a grab bag of disconnected topics. He earned a 36 ACT composite and uses that experience to show students how to read each problem for what it's actually asking, especially on the geometry and functions items where overthinking burns the most time.
Scoring a 33 ACT composite, Joshua knows the math section inside out — the way it buries straightforward algebra and geometry inside wordy setups designed to eat up time. He teaches students to identify what each question is actually asking within seconds, then apply the right technique quickly, which is the difference between a good score and a great one.
Scoring high on ACT Math isn't about knowing advanced topics — it's about solving familiar concepts under brutal time pressure. Jared earned a 34 ACT composite and teaches students to recognize problem types within seconds, particularly on the later questions involving matrices, logarithms, and trigonometric identities that tend to eat up the clock.
I am currently studying Elementary Education at Brigham Young University. I am also minoring in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and Spanish DLI (Dual Language Immersion). I am fluent in Spanish because I lived in Mexico for 18 months, but I also went through the language learning process in high school classes and understand the challenges students face. I love teaching and tutoring anyone with a desire to improve, especially elementary aged students. I try to make learning fun and accessible to each individual student's learning style. In my spare time I like to read, cook, play tennis and paint.
Scoring a 34 ACT composite means Samantha knows how to navigate the Math section's rapid shifts from basic algebra to coordinate geometry to trigonometry — all under tight time pressure. She teaches pacing strategies alongside the actual math, so students learn when to solve carefully and when to move on. Rated 5.0 by students.
Scoring well on ACT Math comes down to speed and pattern recognition across 60 questions in 60 minutes — there's no time for second-guessing. John, who earned a 34 ACT composite, teaches students to identify which math concept each question is really testing, from coordinate geometry to trigonometric identities, so they can pick the fastest path to the answer. His physics background makes him especially sharp on the applied math and word-problem questions that slow most students down.
I am a Senior at Fordham University, where I am double majoring in Humanitarian Studies and Communications and Culture. My academic undergrad research is focused on fan fiction and participatory culture. I have worked in communications with INEE, immigration casework at the Office of U.S. Senator Gillibrand, refugee resettlement with Catholic Charities, procurement with URENCO USA, and as a children's librarian assistant. This fall, I will be attending law school, with the intent of pursuing a career in immigration public policy after graduation.
Scoring a 34 ACT composite, Matthew knows the math section rewards speed and strategic thinking as much as raw ability. He teaches students to recognize problem types quickly — coordinate geometry, probability, trigonometric identities — and match each one to the fastest solution path. Timed practice with that kind of pattern recognition is what consistently pushes scores higher.
Scoring a 33 ACT composite herself, Kacey knows the Math section's pacing demands as well as its content. She zeroes in on the coordinate geometry, trigonometry, and word-problem translation skills that separate a good score from a great one, teaching students to spot what each question type is actually testing before they start calculating.
I am a Sophomore at BYU from Sacramento, CA. Currently, I am studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Management. I love understanding how everything works and that is one of my biggest motivators in school and learning in general. The subjects in which I am most proficient are Calculus, any type of Algebra and test-taking skills. I am also fluent in Spanish having spent two years in Spain where I talked with peoples of various Spanish-speaking countries emphasizing the Castillian accent. I would love to be able to share my enthusiasm for understanding with everyone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and commitment level, but most students see meaningful gains within 8-12 weeks of consistent practice. Students who work with a tutor typically improve faster because they can identify and target their specific weak areas—whether that's algebra, geometry, or test-taking pacing—rather than studying broadly. The ACT Math section rewards both accuracy and speed, so a tutor can help you develop strategies that work for your learning style.
Many students struggle with pacing because the 60-minute section requires solving 60 questions—that's only one minute per question on average. The real challenge is knowing when to skip a difficult problem and come back to it, versus spending time to solve it correctly. A tutor can teach you strategic approaches to manage your time, like tackling easier questions first and learning which question types typically take you longer, so you can build a personalized test-day strategy.
The best way is to take a full practice test under timed conditions and review your results by topic—the ACT breaks down performance into areas like algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and data interpretation. When you connect with a tutor, they can analyze your practice test results to pinpoint exactly where you're losing points, whether it's conceptual gaps or careless errors. From there, you can create a focused study plan instead of reviewing everything.
Consistency matters more than marathon sessions—most students benefit from 3-4 focused practice sessions per week, each 45-60 minutes long. This rhythm gives your brain time to absorb concepts between sessions while keeping the material fresh. A tutor can help you structure these sessions effectively, mixing targeted skill practice with full-length timed sections so you're building both accuracy and speed.
Test anxiety often comes from feeling unprepared or panicking when you encounter an unfamiliar question type. Working with a tutor helps build confidence because you've practiced extensively and seen similar problems before—you know what to expect. Tutors can also teach you concrete strategies like deep breathing, positive self-talk, and a clear game plan for the test, so you feel in control rather than overwhelmed.
Yes—ACT Math questions test the same concepts but often in unfamiliar formats that require strategic thinking rather than just calculation. For example, you might need to work backwards from answer choices or recognize that a geometry problem is really testing algebra. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who specialize in ACT Math and can teach you how to decode these question types and develop efficient solving strategies.
Your first session focuses on understanding where you are and where you want to go. You'll likely take a diagnostic practice test or review results from a recent test, discuss your score goals, and talk about your learning style. From there, your tutor creates a personalized plan that targets your specific challenges—whether that's mastering certain topics, improving your pacing, or building test-day confidence.
Look for tutors who have strong math backgrounds, proven experience teaching ACT prep, and ideally their own high scores on the test. They should understand not just the math content but also test-specific strategies—how to manage time, recognize question patterns, and avoid common traps. When you connect with Varsity Tutors, we match you with experienced tutors who specialize in ACT Math and understand how to help students in Provo succeed.
