I am more passionate about the latter, and within the humanities I am most passionate about philosophy and English. The most important thing I've learned from those two fields (and the thing I'd most want to pass on to students) is how to find the right words for thoughts - this is important, not ju...

Vishank
Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects
I am currently an honors undergraduate student at The Ohio State University studying Data Analytics with a focus on Biomedical and Public Health Analysis. My passion for tutoring comes from the belief that learning is supposed to be a fun and enriching process. I hope to help students find their love for learning. My tutoring experience comes from volunteer tutoring as part of National Honors Society in high school and by coaching/teaching the middle school academic challenge team. In my experience tutoring, I find that it is important to adapt to the learning style of each individual student. I tutor a variety of subjects including math ranging from Algebra through Calculus up to Linear Algebra, Biology, Chemistry, English, and Statistics. My favorite subject to tutor is any sort of math. In my spare time, I like to play sports like basketball or tennis, play video games, and read.
Mussie
Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects
I have always had a passion for solving math problems and seeing the 'aha' moment from students when they understand a topic while I was tutoring math at University of Washington in Seattle and Highline College gave me a lot of satisfaction and happiness in what I did. Hence, I am looking to utilize my spare time productively while doing something that I love.I tutored math of all levels and physics at Highline College in Des Moines, WA for two years. I even have an advanced level tutoring certificate! I also tutored math and computer science at University of Washington in Seattle where I earned my degree in computer engineering. My favorite subject is math and I feel comfortable tutoring all levels of math through college. My tutoring style is simple. When a student asks me to help solve a problem or exercise, I explain the concept and give a related example. The student will then do the next problem. This way, the student will learn and the concept will stick.I am a Software Engineer at IBM and in my extra time, I read about new technologies and tools, I play soccer, watch sports TV, and hang out with friends.

My greatest experience is in tutoring Italian and Latin, but I have also taught French and Greek. I love hearing about your interests and tailoring lessons to meet your specific concerns and goals! I am very energetic in my teaching style and try to get my students to gain confidence through speaking and writing as much as possible. I will help you develop your potential and also to realize that you already know much more than you may think you do! In my free time, I am an avid runner and enjoy all four seasons outdoors in beautiful Wisconsin.

Katarah
Adult Literacy Tutor • +49 Subjects
I'm a writer, artist and literary performer hailing from Brooklyn, NY. After recently graduating from Brown with a degree it Literary Arts, I'm back in my hometown making a name for myself by writing sound, sight and meta-religion. As a young, black woman from a Caribbean family who happens to be queer, I often focus (but don't limit) my work -- be it essays or songs -- around these intersecting identities and the ways they impact my interior and our exterior worlds. Apart from my end-all goal of cultivating spaces with other like-minded artists and teachers (the healers) for our people to be seen and heard, I'm out here continuing to lay the foundation for individual narratives, like my own, to be honest sources of light for kids, artists, and anyone else who needs it.I consider myself a true people person. Always ready to wave, quick to say hello, and eager to know who you are.I love working with kids of all ages -- whether babysitting, tutoring, or assisting student performances.Other things I'm usually doing: singing in the shower; eating Talenti pistachio ice cream; binge-watching Netflix, reading on the subway; sleeping.

College English Tutor • +21 Subjects
As a tutor, I believe that students benefit from a variety of approaches, depending on their backgrounds, current situations and feelings about writing. I believe the most important part of tutoring is empowering the student to feel that he/she is capable of writing and reading well and correcting his/her own errors. I work hard on overcoming the feelings of helplessness and hopelessness that many students experience when faced with writing.I started teaching writing in 1987. Most recently, since 2005, I have taught beginning and advanced comp at Passaic County Community College, advised and tutored students in danger of failing college at Marymount, run the writing component of the CAP program at Pace University (a program which allows students who would not normally be accepted to have a year's probation, when their work needs to be brought up to college level), and taught freshman comp and advanced research classes at York-CUNY. I also piloted and designed a class for below college level writers at Rutgers University Graduate School of Social Work. In private tutoring through Sponsors for Educational Opportunity, I have worked with high school students with issues including ESL, Developmental Delays and emotional barriers.Besides freshman comp, I have also taught advanced research and writing skills classes for all majors, and helped students prepare multi-media and new media presentations. I have worked with populations ranging from pre-GED to graduate level and am extremely flexible in my teaching approach. I have a BA, MA and PhD in English.
Greg
Algebra Tutor • +8 Subjects
I have taught as a math instructor and tutor for the last few years. I began tutoring mathematics as an undergrad in the math learning center at Michigan Tech, where I earned my BS in Applied Math. I then started teaching as a graduate assistant at Oakland University, where I earned my MS in the Spring of 2014. My goal is to help any individual, no matter the age, succeed in mathematics. Outside of academia, I enjoy various summer and winter sports, such as snowboarding, running, and volleyball.
Hayden-William
Anatomy Tutor • +42 Subjects
Education is a passion for me. I've loved it ever since I was a child and love it now that I am able to share my knowledge with others. I received my BA in Biochemistry at Vassar College, my MSC in Anatomy & Physiology at the Atlantic Veterinary College of UPEI, and my PhD in Biomedical Sciences (Orthopedics) at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Subjects revolving around biology and chemistry are therefore my area of expertise and what I most enjoy tutoring.I don't have a singular approach to tutoring. It starts with getting to know the student and how they best assimilate information. Everyone is different. I always look to the individual's needs and work from there.Outside of academia I am interested in Fitness (CrossFit, Powerlifting), Aikido, Rock Climbing, Gaming, Movies, and Outdoor Activities/Nature.

I attended the George Washington University and earned a Bachelor's of Science degree in the field of Statistics. I am working towards a Master's degree in Teaching. At George Washington University, I was employed by the Statistics Department as a tutor working during their office hours. I tutored Statistics, but I am also comfortable tutoring Algebra I, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus I, Calculus II, and Calculus III. My favorite subject to tutor is Statistics. As a tutor I believe that it is my job to bring enthusiasm and positivity to all my sessions. I also like to ask my students a lot of questions to ensure that they are understanding the material. My hobbies include improv comedy, watching football, and yoga.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Tucson's 427 schools and all 67 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Tucson Unified School District, Sunnyside, Sahuarita, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands Arizona's academic standards and local curriculum expectations.
Tucson's average student-teacher ratio of 15.2:1 means individual students often don't get the focused attention they need in the classroom. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction fills that gap by providing dedicated support tailored to your student's specific learning style, pace, and goals—something that's difficult to achieve in a traditional classroom setting.
Tucson students commonly seek tutoring in math, English, science, and test preparation (SAT, ACT, and AP exams). We also work with students on Arizona-specific requirements like passing the AIMS exam and meeting state standards. Whatever subject your student is struggling with or wants to excel in, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an expert tutor.
Tutors who work with Tucson students are familiar with Arizona's K-12 standards and graduation requirements, including proficiency expectations in English language arts, math, science, and social studies. They can help students close specific skill gaps, prepare for state assessments, and build confidence in areas where they're falling behind—ensuring they're on track to meet Arizona's benchmarks.
The first session is focused on getting to know your student—their learning style, current challenges, and goals. The tutor will assess where they stand academically, identify specific areas that need support, and create a personalized plan moving forward. This foundation helps ensure that every future session is targeted and effective.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's grade level. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets, and many families find that the focused, personalized instruction delivers strong results that justify the investment. Contact us for a consultation to discuss pricing and find a tutoring plan that works for your family.
Many students show noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on their starting point and how frequently they work with their tutor. Building strong academic skills is a process, and the most sustainable results come from regular, focused practice. Your tutor will track progress and adjust strategies to keep your student moving forward.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and experience teaching or tutoring their area. Many hold degrees in their subject, have classroom teaching experience, or bring specialized knowledge—like test prep certification or advanced subject mastery. When we match your student with a tutor, we ensure they're well-qualified to help your student succeed.
