Anya
Middle School Math Tutor • +24 Subjects
I am a graduate of the MA Fashion Studies program at Parsons The New School for Design in New York, having previously studied linguistics and foreign languages (concentrating in Russian and French) at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque and at McGill University in Montreal. I currently serve as adjunct faculty in the Art and Design History and Theory department at Parsons, where I specialize in courses which combine numerous disciplines within the humanities, such as a course about the relationship between fashion and language and a graduate seminar about writing for fashion publications. I have also led elementary summer art camp workshops in my hometown of Los Alamos, New Mexico. My teaching methods, which are interactive, engaging, and tailored to a range of learning styles, have consistently been described by my students as motivational and encouraging. I tutor a wide range of subjects, from Middle School Math to PSAT and SAT test preparation, but I am most passionate about Critical Reading and Writing and Essay Editing. These are areas in which my students make remarkable progress in short periods of time and also find great pleasure in relating the themes of their writing to their own outside interests and passions. I also enjoy helping students prepare to take standardized tests by addressing, in an understanding and accommodating way, the common anxieties and stresses that can accompany test-taking. Outside of school and tutoring, I enjoy traveling, reading, visiting museums, cooking, and snowboarding.
Kate
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +53 Subjects
I'm available to tutor biology, chemistry, physics, math from Algebra up through AP Calculus, SAT test prep, and French. I've been tutoring students in science and math for 7 years. I also spent 8 months working and studying in France, and have tutored high school and adult students in French. When I'm not working or studying, I love playing volleyball (indoors or on the beach!) and spending time outside, canoeing or hiking with my dog. I look forward to meeting and working with you!
Suzanne
Calculus Tutor • +24 Subjects
I am currently working on a Master of Arts in Philosophy at Georgia State University, where I serve as a teaching assistant and writing consultant. I currently tutor in the areas of test preparation, government, philosophy, and religious studies. My passion for education stems from the joy I find in helping students achieve their goals. My teaching style involves asking lots of strategic questions to help students discover answers for themselves, a process which my students typically find quite empowering. Still, I recognize that each student has unique needs, questions, and learning styles, so I strive to listen first and then craft individualized plans to meet each student's particular objectives. In my spare time I like to get outside hiking, playing soccer, or volunteering at my church's community garden. I also enjoy reading, watching football, and cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors for all major graduate entrance exams, including the GRE, GMAT, LSAT, MCAT, and DAT. Whether you're preparing for business school, law school, medical school, or dental school, tutors can help you master the specific content and test-taking strategies needed for your target exam. Each test has unique challenges—from MCAT's extensive science content to LSAT's logical reasoning—and tutors tailor instruction to address your particular goals and weak areas.
Score improvement depends on your starting point, study commitment, and how focused your preparation is. Students typically see meaningful gains—often 50-100+ points on the GRE or GMAT—when working with a tutor who helps them identify weak areas, learn strategic approaches, and practice consistently. The key is targeted instruction: rather than studying everything equally, tutors help you focus on concepts and question types where you'll gain the most points. Your tutor can set realistic expectations based on your baseline practice test score and timeline.
Most students benefit from a structured approach that combines content review, strategic skill-building, and full-length practice tests. A typical timeline involves 8-12 weeks of preparation, with sessions focused on your weakest areas early on, then progressing to timed practice and test-day strategy. Tutors typically recommend spacing out study sessions throughout the week rather than cramming, allowing time for concepts to settle between lessons. Practice tests should be spaced strategically—usually every 2-3 weeks—to track progress and identify emerging weak spots before test day.
Graduate tests have unique formats and strict time limits that require specific strategies. For example, the GMAT's computer-adaptive format penalizes wrong answers, the LSAT's logic games demand efficiency, and the MCAT's sheer length tests endurance. Tutors teach format-specific strategies—like when to guess strategically, how to approach different question types, and pacing techniques for each section. Through repeated practice with feedback, you'll develop the muscle memory to recognize question patterns quickly and manage time effectively, turning test anxiety into confidence.
The best way to identify weak areas is to take a full-length practice test under realistic conditions, then analyze your results by section and question type. A tutor can help you interpret those results—distinguishing between careless mistakes and true knowledge gaps—and prioritize what to tackle first. Some students struggle with reading comprehension across all tests, while others find math sections or specific content (like chemistry for the MCAT) more challenging. Tutors use diagnostic assessments to create a targeted study plan that maximizes your score improvement in the time you have.
Yes—test anxiety often stems from feeling unprepared or unfamiliar with the test format and question styles. Working with a tutor builds confidence through mastery: as you understand concepts better and practice timed sections repeatedly, anxiety naturally decreases. Tutors also teach test-day strategies like breathing techniques, how to manage difficult questions without spiraling, and mental approaches to maintain focus over long exams. The combination of solid preparation and strategic confidence-building makes a real difference in how you perform on test day.
Practice tests are one of the most valuable tools in test prep—they reveal your actual performance under time pressure and help you refine strategies before test day. Most students benefit from taking 4-6 full-length practice tests spread throughout their preparation period, with at least one every 2-3 weeks once serious studying begins. Early on, you might practice individual sections untimed to build content knowledge; as you progress, practice full-length exams under timed conditions. Your tutor can help you score and analyze each practice test to identify patterns in your mistakes and adjust your study focus accordingly.
