Mohammad

I am a strategic and supportive test prep coach with over 15 years of experience helping students excel on standardized exams including the SAT, ACT, GRE, and AP exams in math and science. With degrees in Applied Mathematics (UCLA) and Mathematics (Emporia State University), I bring a deep understanding of test content and a strategic mindset to each session. I help students boost their scores by teaching them not just what to learn—but how to approach exams with confidence and clarity.

My tutoring style:

My test prep approach combines targeted content review with strategic test-taking techniques. I identify each student’s strengths and weaknesses, and we develop a customized game plan that maximizes efficiency and minimizes test-day anxiety. Through timed drills, real exam practice, and reflective feedback, I help students master the material and the mindset needed for success. I emphasize building stamina, pacing, and critical reasoning skills—key ingredients for high performance.

Success story:

One standout success was Amira, a high school junior aiming for a competitive college scholarship. She initially scored a 22 on the ACT. Together, we focused on math and science reasoning, building her timing and analytical accuracy. After several months of structured prep and regular practice exams, she achieved a 30—a score boost that opened doors to multiple scholarship opportunities and selective universities.

Hobbies and interests:

Beyond tutoring, I enjoy dining, camping, and reading. Exploring new cuisines, spending time outdoors, and immersing myself in thought-provoking literature help me bring creativity and a well-rounded perspective to my teaching.
