I taught kindergarten and first grade from 1995 to 2007. I try to present a concept in several ways until the student understands. One boy found math difficult. He learned the multiplication table from 0 to 12 in a month. Which shows he could learn it and that my methods work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many students struggle with understanding the fundamental concept of debits and credits, which forms the foundation for all accounting work. Others find it difficult to connect theoretical concepts like the accounting equation to real-world applications, or they rush through journal entries and trial balances without fully grasping the underlying logic. Personalized tutoring helps identify exactly where confusion starts and rebuilds understanding from that point, rather than moving forward with gaps.

Your first session is focused on understanding your specific needs and learning style. A tutor will assess your current knowledge of accounting concepts, identify areas where you're struggling, and discuss your goals—whether that's improving your grade, preparing for the CPA exam, or mastering a particular topic like financial statements or cost accounting. This foundation allows the tutor to create a personalized plan tailored to your pace and learning preferences.

In a classroom with a 14.4:1 student-teacher ratio, teachers must move at an average pace that doesn't always match individual learning speeds. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to slow down on complex topics like consolidations or cash flow analysis, use examples relevant to your interests, and adapt explanations until concepts truly click. You also get immediate feedback on practice problems and can ask questions without worrying about falling behind the class.

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who are familiar with accounting courses taught across Denver's school districts, including introductory accounting, intermediate accounting, advanced accounting, and AP Seminar or business courses that include accounting components. Tutors understand both the specific content expectations and the skills emphasized in Denver classrooms, so they can help you succeed on tests and assignments while building genuine understanding.

A solid grasp of the accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Equity), understanding of debits and credits, and comfort with double-entry bookkeeping are essential foundations. You'll also need strong math skills, particularly with percentages, ratios, and basic algebra. If you're missing any of these fundamentals, a tutor can help you build them quickly so you're ready to tackle more complex topics like financial statement analysis, budgeting, or auditing.

Many students see noticeable improvement in their understanding and grades within 3-4 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially when focusing on one specific challenge like reconciliations or balance sheet preparation. However, building true mastery of accounting—where you can apply concepts to unfamiliar problems—usually takes longer and depends on how frequently you meet and how much you practice between sessions. A tutor can set realistic milestones with you based on your starting point and goals.

You can expect to improve your test and quiz scores, complete homework assignments with confidence and accuracy, and develop the problem-solving skills needed for accounting exams. Beyond grades, you'll gain practical knowledge applicable to real-world scenarios—understanding how businesses track money, prepare financial statements, and make decisions based on accounting data. These skills are valuable whether you're pursuing accounting professionally or simply need to understand business fundamentals.

Look for tutors with a strong background in accounting—ideally a degree in accounting, finance, or business, or professional experience as an accountant or bookkeeper. Relevant certifications like CPA, CMA, or bookkeeping credentials are valuable indicators of expertise. Beyond credentials, the best tutors can explain complex concepts clearly, adapt to different learning styles, and help you understand the 'why' behind accounting principles, not just the mechanics.
