It’s simpler than it looks.You’ve seen a ton of "chance me" reddit posts and "day in the life" TikToks, where people obsess over extracurriculars and volunteer hours.And instead of clarity, you just end up more confused, wondering if you’re doing enough. Sound familiar?The truth is, most students aren’t lacking effort. They’re missing a system.I help you cut through the noise, raise your SAT/ACT score, and write essays that actually stand out.

About Me
I’m Yash Dixit, founder of Dixit Way. Back in high school I scored a 35 ACT/1530 SAT, and now I help students improve their scores and essays using my structured, proven approach that works across different learning styles. I know what it takes to get there and how to get you there quick.I studied Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan (‘23) and completed my Masters at the University of Southern California (‘25). I currently work as a Mechanical Engineer at Boeing based in Hermosa Beach, CA. I have 3+ years of experience as a freelance tutor and proofreader, and am deeply familiar with the ins and outs of the application process.Strong applications aren’t just about test scores; essays matter just as much. Many students either overthink them or try to sound like someone they’re not. I help you find the right story, structure it clearly, and refine it so it feels authentic and memorable.What sets my approach apart is how I teach. Most tutoring focuses on doing more problems. I focus on identifying exactly where points are being lost, usually regarding timing, patterns, or specific question types. And together we build a system to fix it.Whether you’re aiming to raise your score or write standout essays, the goal is simple: help you get results efficiently.

results & experiences
"Improved my ACT from 28 to 32 in six weeks. I really really recommend this package." -Michael S., Buffalo, NY“My son had been stuck in the same ACT score range for months and not sure what he was doing wrong. Working with Yash helped him approach the test more strategically instead of just practicing endlessly. He ended up improving his score and felt much more confident going into the exam.” -Nitin S., Irving, TX“Before working with Yash I kinda felt like I was guessing on a lot of questions on the SAT Math. He broke down how the test actually works and seeing the patterns was huge.” -Drew C., Torrance, CA“I had no idea what to write about for my college essay and was overthinking everything. The sessions helped me find a story that felt authentic to who I am and guided me through organizing it . The final essay ended up being something I was genuinely proud of.” -Annie T, Long Beach, CA“Clear and effective approach. I wish I had started earlier." -Darius L,. Minneapolis, MN
