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.

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

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 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 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.

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.

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

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.

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.
