As a licensed CPA and CFA Level III candidate, Jonathan knows the exam inside out — from FAR's government and nonprofit accounting standards to the AUD section's logic for evaluating internal controls. He breaks down each section's weight and question style so candidates study strategically instead of trying to memorize every AICPA blueprint line item. Rated 4.9 by students.

Finishing dual degrees in accounting and finance at UNF, Daniel knows the academic side of CPA exam content — FAR topics like governmental accounting and consolidations, and BEC concepts like cost accounting and corporate governance — inside and out. He walks candidates through the trickiest areas of the material with a structured, concept-first approach that builds real understanding before drilling multiple-choice strategy.
Nearly two decades as a licensed CPA in New York State — spanning public accounting, manufacturing, banking, and nonprofit work — means Sharon has actually applied the material tested on FAR, AUD, REG, and BEC in real engagements. Her Master's in Accountancy with a forensic accounting concentration adds depth on topics like fraud examination and valuation that candidates often find abstract. Rated 5.0 by students, she connects exam concepts to the professional scenarios that make them easier to internalize.
Jonathan scored a 93 on FAR, 90 on AUD, 95 on BEC, and 94 on REG — and he uses that recent experience to teach candidates exactly how to prioritize study time across each section. He digs into the areas that sink most first-time takers, like governmental accounting in FAR or basis calculations in REG, and builds targeted review strategies around them. His Master in Professional Accounting from UT Austin gives him the technical depth to explain even the trickiest multi-step simulations.
I'm looking forward to helping your student find personal success in their academic lives!
I am most passionate about SAT/ACT Reading and Writing, Spanish, History, and ESOL. I enjoy being a tutor because I love to help students strive for and achieve their goals! I believe every student learns in a different way, which is why I personalize my tutoring approach to fit YOUR needs. I am familiar with the SAT and ACT reading and writing sections, and I can help students improve their scores by walking them through practice questions AND giving them my own testing strategies. I know the SAT and ACT can be stressful for students, but I prepare them so that they walk into the testing room feeling confident and ready!
I am a rising senior at The University of North Texas in Denton. I am working towards my Bachelor of Arts in Spanish as well as English with a concentration in Creative Writing. I was raised in an academically competitive environment in Fort Bend County and my rigorous secondary education prepared me for success in college. I am a fortunate member of the Terry Scholarship Foundation, which has provided me and hundreds of other Texans with a private, four-year, full-ride scholarship. As a Terry Scholar, I am well-versed in all subjects and have taken on the role of mentor to many of the incoming freshmen. I have spent most of my free time in college as a nanny and tutor to families around the DFW area. I have experience with all age groups and there is nothing that intimidates me! While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, History, Spanish, and Government/Social Studies. Through my experiences helping struggling students and peers, I have realized the value of adaptability. Most people reach out to a tutor because the traditional classroom method is not best suited for their learning needs. There is nothing more joyful than when a student finally understands the material in a way that makes sense to them. Many times, students need flexibility and patience in order to grasp a foreign concept. I am a firm believer in the power of education and I hope to share my love of learning with all of my students. After graduation I plan on returning to Houston to obtain my Master of Arts in Teaching from Rice University. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and writing anything from poetry to screenplays. I have also been involved in competitive dance for most of my adolescence, so I understand the balance of academics and extracurriculars.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Certified Public Accountant (CPA) credential is one of the most respected certifications in accounting and finance. It demonstrates expertise in accounting principles, auditing, taxation, and financial reporting—skills that open doors to leadership roles and higher earning potential. For students in Tucson preparing for the CPA exam, understanding the breadth of knowledge required is the first step toward success.
The CPA exam consists of four sections: Auditing and Attestation (AUD), Business Environment and Concepts (BEC), Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR), and Regulation (REG). Each section tests different competencies and requires dedicated study time. Varsity Tutors connects students in Tucson with tutors who can break down each section's content and help you develop a strategic study plan based on your strengths and weaknesses.
Many students struggle with the breadth of material across all four sections, the complexity of tax regulations and accounting standards, and time management while balancing work and study. The FAR section in particular trips up candidates due to its technical depth. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps you focus on your specific problem areas rather than spending time on concepts you've already mastered.
Expert tutors work with you to identify knowledge gaps, explain complex concepts in ways that stick, and teach test-taking strategies specific to each section. Rather than generic study materials, personalized instruction adapts to your learning style and pace. Students who work with tutors often report stronger confidence in difficult areas like consolidations, derivatives, and advanced tax scenarios.
Most candidates spend 300-400 hours preparing across all four sections, though this varies based on your accounting background and experience. Full-time study typically takes 4-6 months, while part-time study can extend to 12+ months. A tutor can help you create a realistic timeline based on your current knowledge level and target exam dates.
You'll need a solid foundation in financial accounting, managerial accounting, and basic taxation. If you're rusty on fundamentals like journal entries, financial statement analysis, or accounting cycles, a tutor can help you refresh those skills before diving into exam-level material. This foundational work upfront saves time and prevents frustration later.
Your first session is an assessment and planning meeting. The tutor will discuss your accounting background, which CPA sections concern you most, your target exam date, and your learning preferences. From there, you'll develop a customized study plan that prioritizes your weak areas and builds toward exam readiness. Most students find this personalized approach much more effective than one-size-fits-all prep courses.
Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have deep CPA knowledge and teaching experience. Once you share your goals and availability, we match you with someone who fits your needs. You can start with a single session to see if the fit works, then scale up your tutoring as you prepare for exam day.
