Tutoring by Matt, LLC

If you’re looking for practical, no-nonsense strategies to master the SAT, ACT, or high school math and science, you’re in the right place. I empower students with the skills they need to take control of their grades or reach the test scores they need for college, no matter where they are starting from.

I learned early on that being “smart” isn’t enough; you need a strategy. By developing reliable study methods and discipline, I scored in the top 10% on the SAT & ACT and earned perfect scores on all of my AP Exams, including AP Biology, AP Calculus AB, AP Psychology, and AP US History. This academic success allowed me to earn my bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from Colgate University and masters degree in biotechnology from Johns Hopkins University. During my time there, I turned those personal strategies into a coaching framework. Now, I use that experience to guide Philadelphia students, and students across the country, through the same hurdles, helping them navigate AP Chemistry, AP Biology, Algebra, Geometry, SAT, and ACT with clarity and confidence.

Fast forward to today, and I’ve tuned my personal success into a mission to help others. My approach is simple but effective: we identify hidden content gaps, find the “preferred solution” strategy that clicks for your student’s brain, and then practice for speed and accuracy.

Whether you are just getting started with SAT, need a step-by-step plan for ACT, or want to secure an “A” in Honors Biology, I provide the roadmap and coaching needed. My goal is for your student to walk into any exam feeling prepared, calm, and in control. Now, I’m on a mission to help as many students as possible take charge of their academic future. I want to show you that it is possible to break free from test anxiety and build a transcript that opens doors. From raising test scores to turning failing grades into solid “A’s,” I provide you with tools and feedback that makes success achievable
