Alex
Elementary Math Tutor • +26 Subjects
I am a public school reading teacher in the elementary grades. I have a passion for educating young people and guiding them to academic success, either in or outside of the classroom. I have experience as a classroom teacher and a private tutor, in subjects that range from Reading and Writing to History and French. In my opinion, the path to obtaining a good education is formed by hard work, diligence, persistence, and an open mind. I work on a daily basis to instill these qualities in my students and tutees. I also believe that forming meaningful relationships with my students creates an environment in which learning is the goal. In my spare time, I enjoy running, golf, reading, cooking, and spending time with family and friends.
Max
Calculus 3 Tutor • +14 Subjects
I am currently an Undergraduate Freshman at Washington University in St. Louis (WashU) studying Biomedical Engineering on a Pre-Medical track. I tutor mostly math-related subjects, such as Calculus and Linear Algebra. I push hard in my personal work to gain a strong, conceptual backing for almost all subjects, and am able to help others efficiently with this. Understanding material conceptually, rather than analytically, is vital to being able to think and apply knowledge. This is my learning and teaching philosophy. I am patient and thorough; I am caring and understanding. I look forward to our first session! Hobbies: reading, writing, art, books, music
Lee
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +73 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Maryland, with degrees in physics, astronomy, and studio art. During my time at university I was a member of the Physic Education Research group, conducting studies into the best methods of math and physics pedagogy. Although I am most accomplished in physical science education, my methods are applicable to all kinds of science. I have also studied history and literature extensively as a matter of personal passion. My goals as a tutor reach beyond simply grasping the material at the level which it is presented--I aim to give students the intellectual and emotional tools to grasp underlying principles of any field, and the confidence to believe that this is something they can achieve under their own power. In my spare time, I write fiction and paint, and I love the outdoors. Hobbies: art, travel, outdoors, books, writing, reading, music, painting

I am a life-long learner and am interested in helping others deal with their academic difficulties and become excited about their own learning. I am passionate about English, Literature, History, and Latin and helping others improve in these areas.
Juan
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a post-baccalaureate student at the University of Pennsylvania. Because I see myself primarily as a philologist, I am studying in order to enter a Ph.D program. I believe that language is one of the primary factors in shaping how we, as individuals, think and present our ideas to the world. I am also a proponent of teaching Classical languages such as Latin and Ancient Greek to students in high school because these languages require the development of analytic capabilities which are sometimes lacking in other more memory-oriented subjects. Furthermore, my education in the Classics does not only focus on linguistics but also on history, mythology, and culture. I studied abroad in Rome for five months in the Spring semester of 2011 through the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies. During my time in Rome, I learned Italian, got to see landmarks of antiquity such as the Roman Forum, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Syracuse, Baiae, and see Medieval Italy through the artworks of Michelangelo and Bernini. Consequentially, I have a strong grasp of historical occurrences in Europe from antiquity to contemporary society. As a tutor, I intend to give a holistic and comprehensive approach to learning new subjects. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books
Mark
Geometry Tutor • +20 Subjects
I am a passionate problem-solver but patient and flexible with my teaching pace. In terms of tutoring style, I like to prepare a comprehensive review of the topics students are struggling with. I also like to bring in outside resources and review questions that mirror the material so students have more practice to fully master the material.
Michael
Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a junior at Columbia University double majoring in Financial Engineering and Computer Science. Since high school, I have extensively tutored French students for standardized testing (SAT/ACT). This helped me bridge the obvious language gap whilst breaking down the tests into their fundamentals to better grasp the strategy behind them. I firmly believe in learning-by-doing which is why I encourage all my students to try first before revising their methods and understanding of the subjects. I am fluent in French, Arabic, Hebrew, and English which I believe helps me communicate the very essence of the subject as opposed to a numbered list of tasks which might not help all types of students. In my spare time, I enjoy catching up on the Financial Times, trying my hand at new languages and designing clothing. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Varsity Tutors connects students from across Bethesda's 35 schools with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a public school in the Montgomery County system, a private institution, or a charter school, we match them with tutors who understand the specific curriculum and academic expectations in the Bethesda area.
Tutors are familiar with Maryland's College and Career-Ready Standards and how they're implemented in Bethesda schools. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students master grade-level content, prepare for state assessments like MCAP, and build the critical thinking skills Maryland expects. This targeted approach is especially valuable given Bethesda's strong academic environment, where students benefit from focused support to excel.
Bethesda students most commonly seek help with math (algebra, geometry, and calculus), sciences (biology, chemistry, physics), and standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams). Many also benefit from English/language arts support, especially for writing and essay development. Tutors can also help with world languages, US history, and other subjects aligned with Montgomery County's curriculum.
The first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's academic goals, current challenges, and learning style. The tutor will review recent assignments or test results, identify specific areas needing support, and create a personalized plan. This foundation ensures that subsequent sessions are focused and effective from day one.
While Bethesda schools maintain a solid 16.3:1 student-teacher ratio, classroom instruction still requires teachers to balance the needs of many students at different levels. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring allows a tutor to focus entirely on your student's specific gaps, learning pace, and goals—whether that's catching up, staying ahead, or preparing for a major exam. This individualized attention accelerates progress in ways group settings cannot.
Absolutely. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors experienced in AP exam preparation across all subjects, as well as SAT and ACT prep. Many Bethesda students aim for selective colleges, and tutors can help with both content mastery and test-taking strategy. Personalized prep is especially effective because tutors can focus on your student's specific weak areas rather than generic test prep.
Yes. Tutors help students understand concepts from their Bethesda school classes, work through challenging homework, and develop stronger study habits. Rather than just providing answers, tutors guide students to deeper understanding so they can tackle similar problems independently. This builds both confidence and long-term academic skills.
Getting started is straightforward—you tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals, and we match them with a qualified tutor. You can then schedule your first session at a time that works for your family. Many Bethesda families appreciate the flexibility and personalized approach from the very beginning.
