I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Matthew
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects
I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Tinley Park's 16 schools and both school districts with expert tutors.

While Tinley Park's average student-teacher ratio is 12.5:1, even in well-resourced classrooms, students benefit from focused 1-on-1 attention. Personalized tutoring allows tutors to adapt their teaching to your student's exact learning style, pace, and gaps—something that's difficult in a group setting. This individualized approach is especially valuable for students who need to catch up, move ahead, or prepare for standardized tests.
Students in Tinley Park frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), English language arts, science, and test prep for the ACT and SAT. We also support students in foreign languages, history, and AP courses. If your student is struggling with a specific subject or preparing for an important exam, Varsity Tutors can connect you with a tutor who specializes in that area.
Tutors working with Tinley Park students are familiar with Illinois State Standards and the specific curriculum frameworks used by District 143 and District 159. They help students build mastery of core concepts, develop critical thinking skills, and prepare for state assessments—all while keeping pace with what's being taught in the classroom.
The first session is focused on getting to know your student. The tutor will assess their current understanding, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving grades, building confidence, or preparing for a test. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized plan for the sessions ahead.
Varsity Tutors offers flexible pricing based on the tutor's expertise, subject, and frequency of sessions. You can start with as few sessions as you need and adjust your schedule based on your student's progress and needs. We recommend discussing your budget and goals when getting matched with a tutor so we can find the right fit for your family.
