Her 4.8 rating speaks to how well that method clicks with students.
I am a senior at the University of New Haven working on a B.S. in Forensic Science-Biology with a Pre-Medical designation who hopes to go to medical school in the future. I am most passionate about biology and chemistry but have a strong personal interest in history, especially topics overlooked in the past study of history. To me, learning is a life long process and leads to the development of a well-rounded individual. Seeing understanding of a difficult topic and creating enthusiasm for learning is what draws me to tutoring.
I am a rising senior at Wesleyan University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Government and Latin American Studies. I have extensive experience with Spanish-language coursework and tutoring: I spent a semester one-on-one tutoring a high school student in beginning Spanish, have taken countless university-level Spanish classes, have taken both the Language and Literature AP Spanish tests, and have traveled and lived abroad in Spanish-speaking countries.
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. James's 34 ACT composite and his graduate-level science training mean he can teach both the data-extraction speed tricks and the deeper scientific reasoning that the conflicting-viewpoints passages require. He drills students on passage triage so they spend their 35 minutes where it matters most.
I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have a strong science and math background having taken many courses in Physics, Computer Programming, and various mathematics subjects ranging from Geometry, to Multivariable Calculus, to Differential Equations. I am also very passionate about English, Literature, Russian Studies, Spanish Language, and History. I believe that the key to success is having a well rounded education, so when I am not programming microcontrollers, one can either find me watching Russian news channels to polish up my vocabulary, reading textbooks on the history of the Middle East, or simply immersing myself in a Jane Austen novel. In my free time I also enjoy training for CrossFit, playing the viola, and traveling.
I am a freshman at Yale University. I am majoring in computer science, and my other interests include economics and history. I have experience tutoring in an Algebra 1 classroom.

The ACT Science section looks intimidating, but it's really a data-interpretation test disguised in lab coats. Francis approaches it by teaching students to read graphs, tables, and experimental setups before touching the actual science content — a skill that transfers directly from his math background. His own 32 ACT composite reflects comfort across every section of the exam.
I love participating in learning with other people. This is why I have been a high school teacher for 20 years and why I am a tutor now. One of my major skills as a tutor is breaking down skills and concepts into small parts to identify exactly where someone is struggling. I can do this with organization and learning needs, too, not just math and English content. I am also versatile and flexible; I can work on all sorts of content and handle unknown problems. I can teach you how to do that, too. I also have a great deal of experience working with students with special needs. I have been trained in some workshops, but I have only experience, not a license, in this area.
Most students panic when they see the ACT Science section, but it's really a data interpretation exercise disguised as science. Mackenzie (32 ACT composite) teaches students to ignore the jargon, zero in on graph trends and table relationships, and answer confidently without needing deep content knowledge.

Rated 4.8 by students, he brings a calm, systematic approach to what many test-takers find the most stressful section.
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 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.
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.
