Joshua
Algebra Tutor • +45 Subjects
Hello! My name's Josh, and I am currently an undergraduate student pursuing an honors degree in mathematics at the University of Rochester. I strongly believe that one thing that sets me apart from other tutors is my experience in theoretical mathematics classes. So if a student asks me why a certain thing is true in math (such as why the product of two negatives yields a positive, why differentiability implies continuity, etc.), I will be able to give a good, concrete reason. Having experience in other areas such as cryptography, programming, and statistics, I can also give plenty of good explanations as to why learning mathematics can be fun and important for other things. Aside from Varsity Tutors, I have also received a Teaching Assistant's position for my Honors Calculus class, and I have lots of experience with children aged 6 to 15 working as a counselor at ESF Summer Camps. One of my favorite parts of the summer camp job was explaining games and activities to children and peers, and if I could do the same thing at Varsity Tutors, I would greatly enjoy it.

I'm not just an experienced teacher, either; as a current PhD candidate at UT Dallas, I am staying sharp and up to date on the subjects that I tutor. Are you struggling with a high school English class? I've taught 9th grade ELA. Are you struggling with a college ESL or writing class? I teach those subjects. In addition, with a perfect 170 on the GRE Verbal section, I can teach you the vocabulary and text analysis skills you need to get into graduate school.
Fred
Algebra Tutor • +10 Subjects
A graduate of NYU, with a major in Finance and International Business. While I'm an investor full-time, I enjoy tutoring students in my free time. I've been tutoring students for over 10 years, most recently at the KIPP Charter Schools. I firmly believe that students perform best when they are intrinsically motivated, and strive to foster that drive to succeed at all times. My background is in finance, and so I love showing students how mathematics can be used in every day scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions
12th graders typically struggle with managing heavy workloads across multiple subjects while preparing for college or post-secondary transitions. Common challenges include balancing AP/IB coursework with college applications, understanding complex material in subjects like calculus and chemistry, writing research papers at a college-level standard, and staying organized when deadlines overlap.
Many students also find it difficult to transition from teacher-directed learning to more independent problem-solving, especially in upper-level courses. Personalized tutoring helps students develop effective strategies for tackling these challenges rather than simply completing assignments.
In a classroom setting, instruction is paced for the average student, which means some concepts move too quickly while others feel repetitive. Personalized tutoring adapts to your individual learning style and pace, allowing tutors to identify exactly where confusion starts and address root causes rather than just surface-level gaps.
A tutor can also focus on your specific homework struggles—whether that's understanding calculus proofs, developing essay structure, or mastering lab report formatting—rather than covering general curriculum content. This targeted approach typically leads to faster improvement and greater confidence with independent assignments.
The best tutors for 12th graders combine subject expertise with the ability to teach strategic thinking. Look for tutors who understand how to break down complex assignments into manageable steps, ask probing questions to help you identify your own mistakes, and teach you how to approach similar problems independently.
You'll also want someone familiar with curriculum standards and college-prep expectations in your specific courses—whether that's AP Chemistry, AP Literature, calculus, or other 12th grade subjects. At Varsity Tutors, tutors are skilled at recognizing patterns in student work and building confidence alongside competence.
Yes. Homework tutoring naturally aligns with exam preparation since the skills and concepts covered in daily assignments directly appear on AP, IB, and college placement exams. Working through assignments with a tutor builds mastery of content while developing test-taking strategies and time management skills you'll need on exam day.
Beyond content review, tutors help you understand how to approach different question types, manage test anxiety, and identify which concepts need more practice before the exam. This integrated approach means you're preparing for exams while actually improving your grade.
Most students see noticeable improvement within 2-3 weeks of consistent tutoring, particularly when tutoring focuses on specific assignments and problem areas. You may notice faster homework completion, better understanding of concepts, and improved grades on assignments fairly quickly.
More substantial gains—like moving from struggling with a subject to feeling confident—typically develop over 4-8 weeks depending on the complexity of the material and how frequently you meet with your tutor. The key is consistency: regular sessions combined with applying strategies to independent work accelerates progress.
Stronger grades and GPA directly impact college admissions decisions. By improving performance in your courses through personalized homework help, you're strengthening the academic record that colleges review. Additionally, tutors can help you understand material more deeply, which often translates to better performance on college entrance exams and in challenging courses that admissions committees notice.
Beyond grades, working with a tutor on challenging assignments builds the independent learning skills and resilience that matter for college success. Many students report increased confidence in their academic abilities, which positively influences how they present themselves in applications and interviews.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors across all major 12th grade subjects, including advanced mathematics (calculus, precalculus), sciences (chemistry, physics, biology, environmental science), English and literature, history and social studies, foreign languages, and more. We also support AP and IB coursework across these subjects.
Whether you need help with one specific class or multiple subjects, you can get matched with tutors who have expertise in the exact courses you're taking and understand the homework expectations and standards for your grade level.
