My name is Anthon. I have tutored hundreds of students over the last 15+ years and have spent thousands of hours creating learning resources and perfecting my curriculum and methods for improving students’ scores and confidence. I have worked with many tutoring programs, schools, methods, and courses and I know what works best. More importantly, I know how to get the best results! As an effective tutor, I have been rewarded as a top 100 Wyzant tutor nationwide.

SAT & ACT:

The results that my students have gotten speak for themselves: an average of 300+ points increase on the SAT and an average of 5+ points increase on the ACT. This is higher than any tutoring program or course out there, especially compared to the large so-called ‘elite’ companies.

I have tutored students at all levels. From those looking for a perfect score, applying to Harvard, Yale, MIT and the like, to students just barely keeping up in high school, looking for a score high enough to attend a local college.

My ACT and SAT tutoring sessions will take place online through Wyzant's platform with audio, video, chat and whiteboard. My tutoring availability is limited though: to guarantee that each of my students get the absolute highest quality tutoring experience, I only take on a limited number of students at one time.

MATH & PHYSICS:

In addition to test prep, I also tutor Math and Physics all the way up to the AP and college level. I have a Ph.D. from one of the top engineering schools in the country and love math and science. Especially teaching it. I know how to explain and relate difficult concepts in a fun and interesting way that not only makes sense for the students, but will stick with them. Students often tell me

Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

I have tutored Algebra ever since I was in high school. Unlike many, fortunately math comes naturally for me. More importantly I am able to explain the concepts in a way that makes sense to struggling students. I have turned many struggling students into successful math students that even enjoy it again and hope to continue doing that for a long time.

Calculus,

Calculus

I tutor Calculus up to the AP level (both AB and BC). I have several degrees in Engineering, so I have done more calculus in my life than was probably useful, but I love teaching others how to make sense out of calculus and how to simplify it so much that it becomes understandable. I have helped many calculus students, so send me an email and we can get started!
Geometry,

Geometry

Geometry is a more visual type of math and many students that are excellent in Algebra, struggle with Geometry. It doesn't have to be that hard if you have the right teacher/tutor and if you are willing to study (and memorize!) theorems and postulates. I have tutored Geometry for 10+ years and will help you 'see' math in an effective way.
Physics,

Physics

I have a passion for Physics. Everything around us can somehow traced back to the laws of Physics, which I think is very fascinating. I have tutored Physics for over 10 years and believe my success with students comes from being able to relate physics concepts to day to day experiences and examples. This makes it much easier to understand, and maybe even more important, it makes it a lot more interesting and fun for the student.
Precalculus,

Precalculus

Precalculus includes a lot of trig and that is scary. It doesn't have to be though with the right instruction. I love teaching others how to make sense out of precalculus and how to simplify it so much that it becomes understandable. I have helped many precalculus students see the light, increase their scores, and become the student to whom classmates go for help.

Trigonometry

Trigonometry sounds scary to many students (and even their parents, still), but it doesn't have to be. With the right explanation it is really not that difficult, but unfortunately many teacher make it more difficult than needed. Students tell me often: "when you explain it, it makes total sense, but when my teacher does, I have no clue". Contact me to make more sense out of trig as well!

Featured review

One of the best ACT tutors in the country, period! the result is far beyond my expectations

My daughter just got her February ACT composite score, It is "35"! And this is her first real test. She took an mock test last summer and her composite score was 29 with individual scores somewhere between 26 to 31. I had originally planned for her to take the ACT test three times to get a “superscore” of about "33" so that she is relatively safe for top instate university and has a shot for second tier Ivy League schools. But with "35" from just one test, it is a game changer; she will have more opportunities for sure. Yes, Anthon's class is not cheap, but you get what you pay for: big improvement in little time; this is especially critical for busy high school juniors like my daughter who takes 4 AP classes and tries to maintains a good GPA. She only had 12 lessons with Anthon to nail the ACT, and now she can focus on other important things for college admission.

Song, 16 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Very knowledgeable

We went through several problems from a practice GRE test I took. He carefully explained to me what I missed and how to analyze the prompts. Also, he provided very useful tips on how to find patterns in the most common problems so I can easily recognize them in the actual test. Very helpful!

Augusto, 1 lesson with Dr. Anthon

Excellent tutor, knowledgeable and patient!

Dr. Anthon not only tutored my daughter's SAT math, but also taught how to solve problems. My daughter has improved a lot with his help. She became more confident to take the SAT test. I highly recommend Dr. Anthon.

Emma, 22 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Totally worth it.

Dr. Anthon is the man. I went from failing quiz grades to passing in just one session. I know that with a few more sessions, the "A" will be within easy reach. I look forward to working with him again.

Sam, 4 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Wonderful tutor who is knowledgeable and patient

Went out of his way to teach concepts that were not taught in school. Helped me understand the concepts and how I should apply formulas on conic sections. Dr. Anthon has been great on both Math and Science lessons. I have been to other tutors and Dr. Anthon is the best.

Vivek, 6 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Great tutor with good rapport

Just started with SAT tutoring and it's going well. My son likes him and is progressing nicely on the road to a better score. He gives homework for the sessions and that will prove helpful. Glad to start this process. We are very happy with the progress.

Arva, 11 lessons with Dr. Anthon

last minute help

Dr. A was able to help my son at the last minute before a test to gain some understanding of the material. Test results weren't great but much better than quiz the day before. We will continue with Dr. A until my son has a firm understanding and until his grade is back in the acceptable range.

Margo, 11 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Incredible tutor!

Dr. Anthon has been my tutor for math and science for the past 7+ years and he has helped me immensely! I cannot imagine finding a better tutor! It's very hard for me to understand math and science concepts, but he is one of the few teachers I've had that always finds a way to explain it to where it makes sense to me. He is very patient and understands how different people learn and is incredibly accommodating to all types and thinkers! 10/10!

Alyson, 18 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

AMAZING TUTOR!!! He’s been saving my math grades since I was in 7th grade and I’m a freshman in college now and I still meet with him every week!! He’s taught me geometry, trig, algebra 1 and 2, precal, calculus, statistics, and now math modeling.

CaroleAnne, 53 lessons with Dr. Anthon

SAT prep without a lot of time

Dr. Anthon did another amazing job. He has helped us in the past with my daughter and her prep on the ACT. We went back to him for help with our son on his SAT prep. He was amazing - AGAIN!!! Dr. Anthon was able to quickly identify where he needed help and focus on that with him and it really helped. My son had a pretty good score but we knew he could improve with some help from Dr. Anthon. He was scoring around 1260 before he worked with Dr. Anthon and within 4 weeks he was scoring in the 1400s and 1500s and even 1600 on one practice test. We will see what his score is on the actual test he just took but I'm confident it will be higher than his last actual test based on Dr. Anthon's help and the practice tests. Thank you, Dr. Anthon!
