Bio

In 2020, I graduated cum laude from the University of California, Irvine with my B.S. in Pure Mathematics, B.A. in Business Economics, and minor in Statistics. I was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa, which is offered to only 5% of graduating seniors at UCI and is America's most prestigious honor society. I also scored an 800 on the SAT Math and a 5 on the Calculus AB Exam.

In 2020, I graduated cum laude from the University of California, Irvine with my B.S. in Pure Mathematics, B.A. in Business Economics, and minor in Statistics. I was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa, which is offered to only 5% of graduating seniors at UCI and is America's most prestigious honor society. I also scored an 800 on the SAT Math and a 5 on the Calculus AB Exam.

I have been tutoring for four years, specializing in high school math, SAT Math, and Calculus AB/Calculus 1. I have helped countless students raise their grades, increase their SAT Math score by 50-200 points, and score a 4 or 5 on their Calculus AB exam. I love to help my students succeed in their classes and build confidence in their math skills.

I am very patient and encouraging with my students, which I believe are important traits to have as a tutor. I create a safe learning environment where my students feel comfortable to ask questions and make mistakes without feeling flustered. When students have anxiety about math, it becomes very difficult for them to learn. I can truly empathize with students who find math frustrating and daunting. I finished my entire math degree in less than a year and a half due to time constraints, routinely studying 60-80 hours every week on difficult proof-based math.

SAT Math

I am a full-time professional math tutor. I cover Algebra 1 through Calculus AB, and my main specialty is SAT math. I have been tutoring SAT math for four years, and have helped many students increase their scores by 50-200 points. Many of my students have scored in the 700s to perfects. The transition from paper-based testing to digital testing has changed the game considerably. The style and variations of questions can be quite different, and students now have access to the Desmos calculator for both sections of the math modules. It is essential that students are practicing with up-to-date practice tests and materials, and know how to utilize Desmos to its fullest ability. In my sessions, I use the 7 most recent Digital SAT practice tests, and specialized problem sets and workbooks that are updated for the Digital SAT. I also show students how to effectively use Desmos, and go over various advanced features that many students do not know exist. By knowing how to use Desmos, which was not provided on the paper SAT test, students can solve tedious algebra questions within 30 seconds, quickly check their answers, solve questions they may not know how to do by hand, and save a lot of time. Time is a very critical factor when taking the SAT. I have gone through all of the content for the new digital SAT math. I know all the tricks and traps on the SAT math, and can guide students on how to avoid these common pitfalls. After my sessions, I provide customized homework specifically tailored to the student's progress and weak areas.

Flawless tutor - 800 mark in SAT Math with 6 sessions!

I had countless lessons with several tutors and academies, but I never encountered a tutor like Minh. He is honestly the best SAT Maths tutor you will find. I started my first lesson in February, and I increased my score from 740 to 800 this May. This was the first time I got a full mark thanks to Minh. He taught me according to the new digital SAT format, with his own-made questions, which resemble the style of questions on the real exam. Going over those questions with Minh helped me so so so much, and you will not find questions like those in any test preparation materials out there. Even after we finished our sessions, he continuously sent me prep materials and supported me until the end, and I am so glad that I found a tutor like Minh! Don't even think twice and start with him ASAP :)

Minh is the BEST SAT Math Tutor. Helped Me Go from 750 to 790 in Just One SAT Test!

Minh is hands-down the most knowledgeable SAT math tutor I’ve ever worked with. He has experience well beyond SAT-level math (even past calculus) and can solve any problem quickly and explain it clearly with guidance if needed. What really sets him apart is that he gives you thousands of targeted practice problems and personalized tips for every question type (plus guidance if you are stuck on a particular process) faster and more effectively than just using Desmos. Before working with Minh, I already had a 5 on AP Calculus BC and scored a 750 on the March SAT (my credentials), but I needed those last 50 points for SAT math. Minh’s approach made the difference. The advanced questions really helped prepare me for the test, and my score jumped to a 790 in just one SAT. Minh’s system works if you commit to his lessons and homework, and he can get any student to at least a 750+ (or 770+ if you’re already strong at math). Parents/students, if you need someone who truly understands the SAT, Minh is your guy!

Knowledgeable and expert tutor

We had a target of 750+ on the SAT Math. My daughter had prepared on her own twice before. This time around with Minh's teaching and guidance on advanced Math, test taking strategies, and tips on solving the Math problems, she was able to score 750+ in her practice tests. We are really grateful for Minh's time and focused lessons, it helped her gain more confidence going into the SAT exam.

Incredible SAT math gurus

I am so grateful for the amazing support and guidance Minh has given my son. I’ve seen him steadily improve and grow so much in confidence. Minh has a special way of explaining even the hardest questions, making them clear and easy to understand. I truly recommend Minh to anyone who wants not only a higher score, but also more confidence in learning.

Highly Recommend Minh - Top-Notch SAT Math Tutoring

We had an excellent experience with Minh N. as our SAT Math tutor. In just 10 focused lessons over a short period of time, my daughter improved her SAT Math score by 60 points! Minh’s teaching strategy is not only smart and effective, but also highly personalized. He took the time to assess my daughter’s strengths and weaknesses and tailored each lesson to meet her specific needs. His clear explanations, strategic test-taking tips, and encouragement made a big difference in her confidence and performance. We’re incredibly grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to boost their SAT Math score!

unbelievable tutor

My son’s Math SAT score went up 120 points after just a few lessons. He had a 2 month period to study, so it’s nothing short of a miracle. We spent countless hours on private tutoring and even spent last summer studying with “Perfect Score” which did nothing but drain our bank account. I am amazed with the 120 point score improvement with Minh as we were ready to give up. Having Minh as our tutor was a complete game changer. We are currently studying with him for the August SAT, and I am excited to see an even higher score since we have more time to prepare.

Great at creating a customized study plan

Minh was a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive to our request for help increasing my son's math SAT score beyond 700 and came up with a plan to practice some advanced math and learn how to maximize use of the Desmos calculator. This helped my son enormously in just a few sessions.

Minh was so helpful for SAT review

Minh helped my daughter improve her skills in the math section for the SATs. He provided her important tactics to use and how to use Desmos for assistance during the test. He was extremely knowledgeable and tailored each session to work on my daughter’s strengths and areas for improvement. My daughter really enjoys working with him and told me she feels he helped her a ton. She is much more confident going into the SATs thanks to his vast knowledge and tutoring skills. Thanks Minh!!!
