4.0 GPA AP Scholar: Math, Science, History, Econ & ACT Prep

Jayden R.

Hi, I'm Jayden, a senior at University High School in Tucson with a 4.0 unweighted GPA (4.59 weighted). I've taken ten AP exams and earned the AP Scholar with Distinction award twice, with 5s in U.S. History, Macroeconomics, and Human Geography and 4s in Physics 1, Precalculus, Microeconomics, World History, Environmental Science, and Computer Science Principles. On the ACT I scored a 30 composite, including a 33 in both Math and Science, and I earned a 730 on the SAT Reading and Writing section. This fall I'm taking AP Biology, AP Government, and AP Spanish, and I plan to major in biology in college.

Because I took these classes recently, I remember exactly where they get confusing and what finally made things click for me. For more than a year, I've tutored a friend one-on-one in Algebra and Geometry, and that taught me what works: I start each session by finding out what you already understand, then we work through problems together step by step instead of me just giving answers. I explain ideas more than one way, check understanding with practice questions, and help you make a simple study plan before tests. For AP exams and the ACT or SAT, I use real released practice questions and teach the strategies that worked for me, like pacing, process of elimination, and reviewing missed questions by type.

Outside of class, I won 3rd place at the Southern Arizona Regional Science and Engineering Fair (SARSEF) in 2025 for a research project on how pH, solvent, and temperature affect protein powder solubility. I also run my own small business and work as a cashier and ride attendant, so I'm used to being reliable, on time, and patient with all kinds of people. I'm a great fit for middle and high school students who want a tutor close to their age who recently did well in the same classes. Send me a message and tell me what you're working on!
