Bio

Hi! I am a member of the Mensa High IQ Society, a freshman at SUNY Binghamton studying Quantitative Finance, and I specialize in ACT tutoring. I earned a 36 on the ACT, and since I took the exam just two years ago, the material, pacing, and strategies are still extremely fresh in my mind.

Hi! I am a member of the Mensa High IQ Society, a freshman at SUNY Binghamton studying Quantitative Finance, and I specialize in ACT tutoring. I earned a 36 on the ACT, and since I took the exam just two years ago, the material, pacing, and strategies are still extremely fresh in my mind. I understand not only the content, but how students are expected to think under real test-day pressure.

I’ve been tutoring students for the ACT for nearly two years, and one of the biggest things I emphasize is that the ACT is a highly pattern-based exam. The same question types, shortcuts, and traps appear over and over. Once students learn how to recognize these patterns, the test becomes far less intimidating. In many cases, simply understanding common ACT traps allows students to immediately eliminate two answer choices, dramatically improving accuracy even before doing any real work.

For the ACT Math section, I focus heavily on efficient strategies rather than unnecessary algebra. I teach an obscure but extremely effective calculator-based approach, along with plugging in numbers and plugging in answer choices, which are powerful tools the ACT rewards. These methods save time, reduce careless mistakes, and help students arrive at correct answers even when a question looks complicated at first glance.

Because I’m 18 years old, I explain concepts in a way that feels relatable, clear, and easy to understand for today’s students. I remember exactly what it’s like to prepare for this exam, and I tailor my approach to how students actually learn—not how textbooks explain it. My goal is to help students think like the ACT, recognize patterns quickly, work smarter under time constraints, and walk into test day confident and prepared.

Approved Subjects

ACT English

ACT English

I am highly qualified to tutor ACT English, having earned a 36 on the ACT English section. I have a strong command of grammar, punctuation, and rhetorical skills, and I help students master the exact rules the ACT tests, including sentence structure, verb tense, subject-verb agreement, and concision. I teach students how to recognize common ACT patterns and traps so they can quickly eliminate wrong answers and work efficiently under time pressure. My approach is practice-driven, clear, and tailored to each student’s specific weaknesses.
ACT Math

ACT Math

I earned a 36 on the ACT and specialize in helping students master the exact skills and strategies the ACT tests. I focus on pattern recognition, eliminating answer choices, and using plugging in numbers, plugging in answers, and calculator shortcuts to solve problems quickly and accurately. My approach emphasizes efficiency over unnecessary algebra, helping students save time and avoid common traps. I tailor each session to the student’s weak areas so they can build confidence and see real score improvements.
ACT Reading

ACT Reading

I earned a 36 on the ACT Reading section and specialize in teaching students how to approach passages efficiently and confidently. I focus on recognizing recurring question patterns, identifying the author’s purpose, and using line references to quickly eliminate wrong answer choices. A major emphasis of my tutoring is time management, helping students maintain accuracy while moving quickly through each passage. Each session is tailored to the student’s specific pacing and comprehension challenges to maximize score improvement.
ACT Science

ACT Science

I earned a 36 on the ACT Science section and specialize in helping students master the data interpretation and timing skills the test requires. I teach students how to quickly read graphs, tables, and experiments, focus only on relevant information, and avoid unnecessary outside science knowledge. My approach emphasizes efficient strategies, pattern recognition, and smart skipping to maximize points under strict time limits. Each session is tailored to help students move faster while staying accurate and confident.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I specialize in tutoring Algebra 1 by helping students master foundational topics such as linear equations, inequalities, functions, and graphing. I focus on breaking problems down into clear, step-by-step processes so students understand the logic behind each solution. My approach emphasizes pattern recognition, avoiding common mistakes, and building confidence through practice. Sessions are tailored to each student’s needs to ensure steady improvement and long-term success.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I tutor Algebra 2 by helping students build confidence with key topics such as functions, quadratics, polynomials, exponentials, and logarithms. I focus on recognizing patterns, choosing efficient solution methods, and avoiding common traps that often confuse students. My explanations are clear and step-by-step, with an emphasis on understanding concepts rather than memorizing formulas. Each session is tailored to the student’s strengths and challenges to ensure steady improvement.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I help elementary students build strong math fundamentals in a patient, supportive, and encouraging way. I focus on core skills such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and word problems, breaking each concept into simple, easy-to-understand steps. My goal is to build confidence early so students feel comfortable asking questions and approaching math without frustration. Each session is tailored to the student’s pace and learning style to create steady progress.
Geometry

Geometry

I tutor Geometry by helping students understand core concepts such as angles, triangles, circles, polygons, and coordinate geometry. I emphasize visual reasoning, pattern recognition, and efficient problem-solving strategies rather than memorization. My approach breaks complex geometry problems into simple, logical steps so students can see how each part connects. Sessions are tailored to build confidence and accuracy while preparing students for tests and future math courses.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I specialize in tutoring Prealgebra by helping students build a strong, confident foundation in core math skills such as integers, fractions, decimals, ratios, and basic equations. I focus on breaking concepts down into simple, logical steps so students truly understand why the math works, not just how to memorize procedures. My approach is patient, structured, and tailored to each student’s learning style, especially for students who feel behind or overwhelmed. By strengthening fundamentals early, I help students gain confidence and prepare successfully for Algebra and beyond.
Probability

Probability

I tutor Probability by helping students understand the logic behind chance, outcomes, and likelihood rather than relying on memorization. I focus on core topics such as counting methods, permutations and combinations, conditional probability, and real-world applications. My approach emphasizes breaking problems into clear steps, identifying patterns, and avoiding common traps that lead to mistakes. Sessions are tailored to build both confidence and accuracy, especially for students preparing for exams.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I tutor Trigonometry by helping students understand core concepts such as sine, cosine, tangent, unit circle values, and right triangle relationships. I focus on pattern recognition, special triangles, and efficient problem-solving strategies to make trigonometry more approachable. My explanations are clear and step-by-step, with an emphasis on understanding rather than memorization. Sessions are tailored to each student’s needs to build confidence and improve performance on exams.
