David scored a 1570 SAT and brings a computer scientist's precision to the Math section, particularly the no-calculator portion where algebraic fluency and number sense matter most. He emphasizes understanding why a technique works — whether it's completing the square or setting up a system of equat...

Scoring a 1570 on the SAT means David knows exactly where the Math section tries to trip students up — the word problems that bury the real question, the data interpretation that looks harder than it is, the quadratic or systems problem disguised in an unfamiliar context. He teaches students to deco...

Jaya scored a 1530 on the SAT and breaks the math section down by question type — from passport-to-advanced-math problems involving quadratics and polynomials to data analysis questions that reward careful graph reading. Her science-heavy coursework in genetics keeps her sharp on the quantitative re...

I am an honors student at the University of Minnesota studying English and Journalism. I've been tutoring, teaching, and volunteering in schools for five years and specialize in language arts and standardized test preparation.

I am a rising senior at Pomona College, a small liberal arts college in California, majoring in Public Policy Analysis with a concentration in Economics and a minor in Mathematics. Born and raised just outside of Minneapolis, I am excited to be tutoring in the area. I've studied a variety of topics ...

I am a current veterinary student and lifelong lover of science, literature and learning. My background is primarily in biology and the life sciences, and in addition to my veterinary program, I also work as part of a research team in comparative oncology that develops treatments for cancer that ben...

I'm more likely to give an answer quickly when a teacher asks a question if I have a habit of properly attuned instincts. So, if I want your confidence to grow, I need to redirect the water your instincts flow through to the proper conduits of careful thinking.

Broden scored a 1560 on the SAT and knows exactly where the Math section tries to trip students up — especially on passport-to-advanced-math questions involving quadratic manipulation and systems of nonlinear equations. He breaks down each problem type by identifying what the question is actually as...

I'm dedicated to critical thought and careful, clear writing. In my independent written work, I focus on issues of political economy, critical theory, and the social and political impacts of technology. I recently also have begun to work on a science fiction novel. In tutoring, I hope to encourage s...

The SAT Math section rewards students who can set up problems efficiently more than those who grind through brute-force calculations. Danny, who earned a 1450 SAT composite, walks students through the specific algebra, function, and data-interpretation patterns the College Board recycles across exam...

Audrey's 1550 SAT means she's already proven she can handle the math section's trickiest content — but what sets her apart is a classics background that trained her to read with surgical precision, which is exactly the skill that unlocks the SAT's deliberately misleading word problems and graph-inte...

I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in education from the University of Minnesota and am working toward obtaining my K-6 elementary teaching license. During the day, I work full time as a reading tutor at a school in South Minneapolis. I enjoy basketball, video games, hiking, and reading. In additio...

I am a current student at the University of St. Thomas, working towards my major of Computer Science and while I am proficient in a broad range of subjects I love math and science the most. Before university, I was able to travel with my family to a lot of places and meet a huge variety of people be...

I am a sophomore at the University of Minnesota majoring in Economics. I enjoy helping people learn because I believe true mastery of a subject is being able to teach it. My promise to the students I work with is to put in as much work as they do. I firmly believe that what you get out of something ...

Mechanical engineering students live inside algebra, geometry, and applied problem-solving — and Vania's 1590 SAT confirms she can execute that same math quickly under standardized-test conditions. She's especially sharp on the no-calculator section's polynomial and quadratic questions, where knowin...
