I focus on providinga pleasant and safe experience for my students. I prepare lesson plans that arecreative and introduce new topics in a fun way, spending enough time reviewingthe material.

ACT Writing Tutor • +27 Subjects
I honestly love tutoring. While working in finance and publishing over the past decade, I have independently tutored students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students. Breaking down seemingly complex subjects is one of my favorite pastimes--it's part of the reason I also enjoy writing about arcane financial topics like quanto spreads on sovereign CDS. I've also developed a newfound respect for the challenges students face when undergoing years of testing after developing my own study plan to pass the first two CFA exams (I'm taking the third exam in June). This experience has shaped how I work with students to tackle test-taking anxiety and master difficult material quickly.I have both a BA and MA in English from New York University.
Catherine
Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects
Hello! My name is Catherine Raj and I am a second-year medical student at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience in 2022. Since 2015, I have tutored children from ages 3-16 in areas of math and reading, as well as their school curriculum. Apart from tutoring here, I have worked for the Kumon Learning Center as a teaching instructor for 5 years. While I am certified to tutor a broad range of subjects, I have years of experience with tutoring young children in math and reading, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, phonics, reading comprehension, and much more. I connect with elementary and middle school students very well, as I believe in understanding children in order to give them a fulfilling tutoring experience. I also very much enjoy tutoring pre-algebra and algebra as those are my favorite math subjects, as well as my best! My students and I have always had a deeper level of understanding beyond the books and I pride my style of teaching on that aspect.

Chester
Creative Writing Tutor • +18 Subjects
I love English, and good writing. Since I like working one-or-one or with a small group, tutoring is a great way for me to help young people communicate more effectively in writing. As a social scientist, I also like to talking about statistics and social science. I like to teach by example and ask lots of questions so students can discover answers themselves. When not working, I like to watch movies, exercise, and write science fiction.
Maria
ACT Prep Tutor • +15 Subjects
I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from Denison University. I am currently pursuing an M.D. at Case Western Reserve University. I've been a college-level teaching assistant for both introductory biology and general chemistry. Besides chemistry, I really enjoy tutoring for test prep (ACT and MCAT) because I view these types of tests to be a collection of puzzles to solve. It's a lot of fun helping students to figure out the logic behind these puzzles and apply it broadly, and it's incredibly rewarding to see this integration of knowledge translate to a high score. When working with students, I like to challenge them to identify the purpose of the problem or question and what underlying reasoning can be applied broadly in future questions. In doing so, students gain more long-term usable skills and the ability to think independently.

Theo
ACT Prep Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a current undergraduate student at Columbia University in New York City, pursuing a Bachelors of Arts in History and Economics. These are two of the subjects that I enjoy tutoring the most, but I also have a penchant for tutoring and learning about math and literature. I am passionate about tutoring because I benefited from the personalized guidance of great tutors in my past and I really enjoy seeing students push themselves and develop an appreciation for subject areas or even the mental exercise of test-taking thanks to tutoring. I also believe that tutoring a subject area is the greatest way to maintain and develop understanding of its material for both the student and the tutor. I was an active tutor in high school in mathematics and history and as I take more classes in college, I look forward to tutoring students in those in which I understood the material really well. In my spare time, I enjoy reading about history, camping, biking, and traveling when I can (or exploring the incredible city of New York)!

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically find word problems involving rates, work, and mixture problems most challenging, since they require translating real-world scenarios into equations. Percent problems and problems involving discounts or markups also trip up many test-takers because they demand quick mental math and careful attention to what's being asked. Time management is another major pain point—students often spend too long on difficult problems and run out of time for easier ones they could answer quickly.
The key is learning to identify problem types quickly and prioritize easier questions first. A tutor can teach you to spot high-confidence problems (basic operations, simple percentages) and tackle those in 30-45 seconds, saving more time for complex word problems. Many students benefit from practicing with a timer to build speed without sacrificing accuracy, and learning when to make an educated guess rather than getting stuck on one difficult problem.
Start by reading the question carefully and identifying what you're actually solving for—many students miss this step and solve for the wrong value. Next, extract the key numbers and relationships, then set up your equation before diving into calculations. A tutor can help you develop a consistent system: underline what you're looking for, circle the given numbers, and write out your setup step-by-step to catch errors before they happen.
Mental math is valuable for speed, but accuracy matters more—the ASVAB isn't testing your ability to do calculations in your head. That said, being comfortable with basic operations, fraction-to-decimal conversions, and quick percent estimates can save you 10-15 seconds per problem. A tutor can help you build these skills through targeted practice, focusing on the conversions and estimates that appear most frequently on the test rather than advanced mental math tricks.
A tutor will analyze your practice test results to spot patterns—for example, noticing that you consistently miss ratio problems or struggle with multi-step scenarios. They'll then focus your study time on those specific problem types with targeted practice, teaching you the underlying concepts and strategies you need rather than having you review everything. This targeted approach is much more efficient than general studying and builds confidence in your weakest areas.
Anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or unsure of your approach to problems. Regular practice with a tutor builds genuine confidence because you develop a reliable system for tackling different problem types and learn what to expect on test day. Tutors can also teach you calming strategies like reading problems twice before solving, taking a breath when you feel rushed, and knowing when to skip a problem and come back to it—all of which reduce panic during the actual test.
Most students benefit from 3-4 focused study sessions per week, each 45-60 minutes long, rather than cramming. A typical session might include reviewing one problem type (15 minutes), practicing 8-10 similar problems (25 minutes), and reviewing errors (15 minutes). A tutor can help you create a personalized schedule based on your timeline and current skill level, and adjust it based on your progress—for example, spending more time on weak areas as your test date approaches.
Score improvement depends on your starting point and consistency. Students who are 6-12 weeks out from their test and commit to regular practice often see 3-5 point improvements, while those with more time and foundational gaps may see larger gains. The most significant improvements typically come from learning efficient problem-solving strategies and eliminating careless errors—both areas where tutoring makes a direct impact. Your tutor can set realistic milestones based on practice test results and help you track progress along the way.
