Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors
serving Los Angeles, CA

The ACT Science section is really a data-interpretation exam dressed up in lab coats — students rarely need outside science knowledge. Michael treats each passage like a puzzle: he teaches students to read graphs and tables first, ignore jargon that doesn't appear in the questions, and identify conflicting viewpoints in the Dueling Scientists format before time runs short.

I am currently attending UCLA School of Dentistry. I have spent a big chunk of my life tutoring. I had 600 hours of volunteer experience tutoring 5th graders in language. I also was the Tutoring Head of the Science National Honor Society in high school and spent every week tutoring high school level biology and chemistry. I spent one summer working at Kumon tutoring children in basic math and reading. In college, I spent two years tutoring adults to pass their GED. I was also an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant (UTA) for a development and physiology biology class, as well as a Peer Tutor for other intro level biology classes. If you chose me as your tutor, I look forward to working with you and helping you be the best student you can be!

I am a recent graduate of Harvard University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with an emphasis on screenwriting. Although I love literature and writing, I am most passionate about tutoring math. I have five years of experience as a math tutor, during which time I helped students ages 3-17 with math ranging from basic arithmetic to pre-calculus. My favorite math topic is algebra, particularly because of its usefulness in solving real-world word problems. In addition to mathematics, I find joy in teaching/elucidating Shakespeare to high-school students. As a classically trained actor, I find it fun to tackle Shakespeare’s dense texts from a performance and character-driven perspective. In my spare time, I enjoy vegan baking and roller-blading.

Most students overthink the ACT Science section by trying to recall biology or chemistry content, when the real skill is reading graphs, interpreting experimental designs, and spotting trends in data tables under time pressure. Chandler pairs his 34 ACT composite score with daily lab experience as a Chemistry major at Occidental, so he teaches students exactly how to extract answers from figures without getting distracted by unfamiliar terminology.

I am confident that by tailoring personalized learning sessions to individual student needs and giving students the resources and skills they need to succeed, any student can ace their next exam, get the best grade, or get into the college of their dreams.

I am a graduate of Southern Methodist University. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Studies, with a focus on acting and directing. Since beginning high school, I have spent much of my extracurricular and summer time tutoring, mentoring, and counseling students elementary though high school age. While a tutor a fair amount of subjects, I sincerely enjoy exploring English, Literature, and French. I love the English and Literatue because both subjects connect deeply to my love for theatre, and I love French because I have lived in France twice; once when I was 7 in Paris, and again when I was 16 in the Nord Pas-de-Calais region. I would say my teaching style depends directly on the student, but generally, I love acting like I'm a student too and find fun ways to address the issues they're facing in practical ways. I always try to get my students to appreciate the skills they develop by showing them how they're useful in everyday life. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy trying new restaurants, going for a swim, practicing my singing, and going to acting class.

I'm Katrina--a recent transplant to LA and also a recent grad of Yale University! Reading and writing have been integral to my life over the past few years as a Film and Media Studies and Sociology double major. I believe that crafting text can be a fun hobby and a very useful skill. Yet, it can often be challenging. I know what it is like to need help with schoolwork, and I know what it is like to provide that help for others. I believe that with patience and effort, we can solve any problem!

Treating the ACT Science section as a data-interpretation exercise rather than a science quiz is the key shift most students need. Zhenrui's background in electrical engineering and premed coursework at Columbia means he can quickly decode graphs, conflicting viewpoints passages, and experimental designs — and he teaches students the same systematic reading approach that earned him a perfect 36 composite.

I'm an affable chemistry-loving person whose joy come from delivering knowledge :D

Most students panic when they see dense graphs and conflicting scientist viewpoints on the ACT Science section, but the actual science knowledge required is minimal. Jackie, who scored a 35 here, treats it as a data interpretation exercise — teaching students to read axes, identify trends, and compare experimental setups before even glancing at the answer choices. Her 5.0 rating speaks to how quickly that approach clicks.

I am currently a sophomore at NYU studying English and Journalism. However, I can help with almost any subject, including math and science, as I took advanced-level courses and 13 AP tests in high school. I have years of experience tutoring students of all ages, from elementary school through high school. In my spare time, I enjoy playing the violin, reading, and writing. I live in New York City during the academic year (September - May) and would be happy to tutor in-person (depending on the travel distance) then. Of course, if you/your child is more comfortable with online tutoring, I can tutor online year-round. Thanks for dropping by, and I hope to work with you/your child soon!

The ACT Science section is really a data-interpretation exam disguised as science — students rarely need outside knowledge and almost always need to read graphs, compare experimental setups, and spot trends under time pressure. Ben treats it like a close-reading exercise, teaching students to identify what each figure actually shows before jumping to the questions. His 33 ACT composite speaks to his command of this approach.

I am passionate about living life to the fullest and making a difference in the lives of others.

I am a 2018 graduate of University of California Santa Barbara, with a B.S. degree in Biological Sciences through the Honors Program. I consider education to be tremendously important not just during development, but also throughout life. I believe it's critical to establish the right attitude toward learning; a feat that once accomplished can improve a student's long-term output in school. Education is an integral part of my career choice: I aspire to become a physician, a career intertwined with knowledge and education. However, teaching and learning are present in every career, and every part of life for that matter.

Most of the ACT Science section isn't testing what students know about biology or chemistry — it's testing whether they can read graphs, compare experimental setups, and draw conclusions from data. As a scientist with a computer science background built on data analysis, Christina walks students through exactly how to extract answers from figures and tables without getting distracted by unfamiliar terminology.

Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but Aaron treats it as a data-reading exercise — the actual science knowledge required is minimal compared to the skill of extracting trends from tables and graphs under time pressure. As a bio-psychology major on the pre-med track, he's comfortable with every content area the section throws in, from chemistry to biology to physics. He scored a 32 ACT composite and holds a 5.0 student rating.

As a biology major who also tutors chemistry and physics, Nicholas is unusually well-suited for the ACT Science section — he can explain the actual science behind a confusing graph when that context makes the question click faster. But he also emphasizes that most Science questions are really about reading data tables and interpreting experimental design, not recalling content. His 33 ACT composite backs up that dual approach of scientific literacy and test strategy.

I am a certified ESL instructor with bachelor's and master's degrees in linguistics. I received my Bachelor of Arts from the University of Illinois in 2006, and my Master of Arts from the Graduate University of Applied Linguistics in Dallas, Texas in 2012. My teaching experience includes one year of teaching elementary classes in South Korea (2009-2010), one year of teaching all ages at a private school in Japan (2013-2014), and one year of teaching adult classes in Pasadena, California (2014-present). I have also tutored students in a variety of subjects and grade levels. In addition to ESL, I offer tutoring in reading, writing, grammar, and test prep for the ACT, SAT, and TOEFL. I love teaching because it allows me to use my passion for language to help other people. I believe that we should always be learning, and that learning should be wonderful and exciting. I strive to inspire my students to curiosity and guide them towards independence in their education. In my free time, I enjoy reading, going out for coffee with friends, and occasionally going dancing.

I'm particularly passionate about chemistry, and am excited to share my enthusiasm for science with others. With the life sciences, I emphasize overall understanding in place of rote memorization. With math, I stress practice to best develop critical thinking and problem solving techniques. These are general strategies that can be adapted to meet the unique learning style of each student.

Most students overthink ACT Science because they assume they need to know biology, chemistry, and physics cold. Gabriel reframes the section as a data-interpretation exercise: reading graphs, comparing experimental setups, and spotting trends in tables, all under tight time constraints. His dual strength in science and reading comprehension — plus a 34 ACT composite — makes him especially effective at teaching this hybrid skill.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it's really about reading graphs, interpreting data tables, and comparing experimental setups under time pressure. As a physics-engineering major who lives in data and lab reports, Valerie is in her element here. She teaches students to extract trends from figures in seconds and ignore the intimidating scientific jargon that's designed to slow them down.

I am able to tutor in multiple science subjects, standardized tests (SAT, ACT) and social sciences (public health, political science). I would be happy to help with any age. I help students by getting to know their background and understanding of the subject and helping them build upon that knowledge base through the sessions.

The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation test disguised as science — success depends on reading graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints quickly and accurately. Luke scored a 32 ACT composite and teaches students to strip each passage down to its visual data before touching the questions, a strategy that cuts wasted time on dense scientific jargon. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a graduate of the University of Miami, where I received my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I also earned a Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of California Irvine. In my eight years of tutoring and teaching, I have worked with teens and adults across the United States, as well as two years teaching young children in Japan. My tutoring specialty is in Verbal, Writing, and Critical Reading for the GRE, SAT, and ACT, but I have an overall passion for English language and literature. I believe that the best teaching is usually calm and fun, which springs from a personal relationship based on care and trust for one another. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy writing, cooking (especially vegetarian and gluten-free/allergen-free cuisines), running, and traveling to new cities.

I am available to tutor in a broad range of subjects, though I am most passionate about Economics, History, and Civics. Please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to arrange a session.

Most students panic when they see an unfamiliar experiment on ACT Science, but the section rarely tests scientific knowledge — it tests whether you can read graphs, compare data trends, and evaluate conflicting hypotheses under time pressure. Rhea, a biology major at UChicago on the pre-med track, unpacks each passage type (data representation, research summaries, conflicting viewpoints) with a different reading strategy. Her 36 ACT composite came from treating this section as a data literacy exercise.

Sreya treats the ACT Science section as a data interpretation exercise, not a science quiz — which is exactly what it is. Her chemistry background at the University of Michigan means she's comfortable with the conflicting viewpoints passages that trip up most students, but she emphasizes that graph-reading speed and experimental design logic matter far more than content knowledge. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm Lizz, a middle school math teacher working in Chicago Public Schools. I love to see students go from describing themselves as "not a math person" to feeling like they meet exciting challenges in math and other parts of their lives. Even though I love working in the classroom, I feel like tutoring allows me to make more of an impact and connect with students.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it tests whether you can read a graph, compare two experimental setups, and draw a conclusion under time pressure. Sharan's 36 composite and her premed science background at Cornell mean she can teach both the data-interpretation shortcuts the section demands and the underlying biology or chemistry when a question does require content knowledge.

I am passionate about helping students with math, science, test prep, and more! As sophomore undergraduate at Brown University studying Mathematics and Biophysics, I am well experienced with many topics. I received a perfect 36 on my ACT, so I am very confident with test taking.

I'm a recent college graduate with degrees in Biological Sciences and Russian from Ohio University. During my time there, I tutored students in a variety of subjects, including biology, chemistry, and Spanish. In addition, I worked as both a peer advisor and teaching assistant, which gives me insight into the learning strategies and study skills that students need to succeed. As a tutor, I like to focus on doing actual problems with students because it is the most effective way to immediately identify their strengths and weaknesses and to address them. In my free time, I like to lift weights, read books, and spend time with my friends.

Treat the ACT Science section like a data-interpretation exercise, not a biology or chemistry quiz — that's the approach Benjamin teaches, and it's how he earned a perfect 36 composite. His computer science training makes him especially sharp at reading graphs, tables, and conflicting experimental designs quickly, and he walks students through the exact process for each passage type.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it tests whether you can read a dense graph, compare two data sets, and draw a conclusion under time pressure. Dylan scored a 36 composite and approaches this section as a data-interpretation exercise, drilling students on how to extract trends from figures without getting lost in unfamiliar terminology. Speed and accuracy on conflicting-viewpoints passages are where he tends to unlock the biggest score jumps.

I am a junior at Purdue University studying Aerospace Engineering and am part of the Air Force ROTC program. I have 6 years of tutoring experience at places including Kumon, Mathnasium, and Purdue University. I have worked with kids of all ages from kindergarten to sophomores in college, each with their own set of unique strengths, and tutored a variety of subjects, including calculus, trigonometry, geometry, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics. Like many of my previous students, I struggled to understand concepts that I was being taught and was a terrible test taker. However, I found ways to overcome my obstacles and develop an better intuition for what I was learning. I believe that it is only this intuition and understanding that helps overcome these obstacles. My least favorite thing to see people be discouraged, so with a little bit of guidance and reassurance, I want to show people that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.

The ACT Science section is really a data interpretation exam disguised as biology, chemistry, and physics. Dennis's astrophysics research at Princeton — where he analyzed simulations of cosmic ray acceleration and turbulent plasmas — gave him the exact skill set this section tests: reading complex graphs, comparing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from conflicting data sets under time pressure. Rated 4.7 by students.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it's really about interpreting graphs, comparing experimental setups, and drawing conclusions from conflicting data sets under time pressure. Ilesh treats it as a data-literacy drill, teaching students to extract the key variable from a figure in seconds rather than reading every word of the passage first. His own 36 composite backs up the approach.
