Taylor
ACT Writing Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am currently working on my Bachelors of Science in Psychology with a concentration in law and Advocacy from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. I am very passionate about helping others. This is why I have chosen to pursue a career in mental health. I personally understand what it's like to struggle in school with various subjects. This is why I wanted to become a tutor, so that I could help others and hopefully make a positive impact in their lives. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing, doing yoga and playing with my one year old puppy!
Krystyn
Professional Certifications Tutor • +5 Subjects
I am Emergency Medicine Doctor. I fell in love with a few things when I was young: math and medicine. I was the top in my class for math scores, but I knew that could not take me into a career I would love. For that reason, I majored in chemistry and minored in mathematics at Villanova University before starting medical school. I can help you get through your big exam, your semester, or maybe even the homework you have to cram for tomorrow! I hope to be there in whatever way possible so that you can reach your ultimate goals!

Dianna
Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +22 Subjects
My passion for teaching has grown over the years, from teaching my own children to each new student in my classroom. I have been teaching a variety of students for the past fifteen years: PreK-high school students from the U.S.: Massachusetts, California, Oregon, Florida, Maryland, Michigan and Texas; and international children, adult, business and university students from Asia, Europe and Latin America. My teaching settings have varied with my travels: I have had the opportunity to teach ESL Business classes to executives at multinational companies in Ecuador, South America. There, I branched out to university students to prepare them for a Standardized Test, or to continue their studies in English abroad. In Boston, I taught at two large language institutes with a variety of international students of all ages, from 5 to 80. I have taught ESL subjects, and Spanish to high school students. Additionally, I have taught Reading in English and Spanish to PreK-Middle school students. I'm passionate about teaching: Reading in English or Spanish; Spanish 1,2,3, 4 using a variety of standard school textbooks; ESL subjects: Conversation, Pronunciation, Reading, Writing, Listening, Idioms, Grammar, and Business topics. I possess several ESL teaching certificates: TESOL, TKT and SEI (public school) and I completed my U.S. certified, university education in Ecuador, South America, Bachelor of Arts, Business Administration degree. My hobbies include reading about history and biographies, cooking, and traveling. Creating a motivating learning atmosphere where students can excel is important to me. My classroom allows for learning where you feel interested, actively participating, wanting to speak, and absorbing the language and the culture, which will make all the difference in how YOU learn. I look forward to helping you reach your goals in learning together.

Nick
Algebra Tutor • +53 Subjects
I enjoy learning, and helping others learn. I am a results driven tutor who has been helping students in Math and Science since 2009. All the students I have helped have improved by at least a full letter grade. I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Physics and a specialization in Robotics and I passed the FE exam in September of 2018. I understand that not all students are able to learn the same way and I try to adapt my teaching methods to better suit the student. I have tutoring experience in math from Pre-Algebra through Calculus 2, high school and college Physics, and engineering sciences associated with a Mechanical Engineering degree (i.e. Solid Mechanics, Statics, Dynamics, Machine Design, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, etc.). I am bilingual, able to speak English and Spanish.

Gregory
American Literature Tutor • +30 Subjects
After more than twenty years teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels, I have come to realize that my teaching must be practical, grounded in real-world experience, and student-focused. I believe that my job as a teacher is to help students prepare for their life's work, however they may choose to define this concept. This idea is something that I reflect on, usually at the beginning of the academic year, to reinforce to myself the extent to which my students are counting on me as a teacher, the importance of what I am setting out to do, and the dedication required to achieve this goal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who specialize in preparing for a wide range of professional certifications, including IT certifications (CompTIA, Cisco, Microsoft), project management (PMP, CAPM), finance and accounting (CPA, CFA), healthcare credentials (NCLEX, pharmacy technician), and many others. Tutors can work with you on exam-specific content, test-taking strategies, and practice problems tailored to your certification's format and requirements.
One-on-one instruction allows tutors to identify exactly where you're struggling and adapt their teaching to fill those gaps, rather than having you spend time on concepts you already understand. Personalized tutoring also provides accountability, structured study plans, and the ability to ask questions immediately when you're confused. Research on learning shows that individualized instruction significantly accelerates progress compared to self-study alone.
Preparation timelines vary widely depending on your starting knowledge, the specific certification, and how frequently you meet with your tutor. Some certifications require 2-3 months of focused study, while others may take 6+ months. Your tutor can assess your baseline knowledge and create a realistic timeline with specific milestones, helping you stay on track to meet your certification deadline.
Yes. Tutors work with students at all knowledge levels, from those brand-new to a field to those with substantial experience. If you're making a career transition, your tutor can start with foundational concepts and progressively build your knowledge toward certification-level competency. This scaffolded approach helps you develop both the conceptual understanding and practical skills needed to succeed on your exam and in your new role.
Effective strategies include breaking complex topics into smaller, manageable pieces; using practice exams repeatedly to identify weak areas; and spacing out your study sessions over time rather than cramming. A tutor helps by explaining difficult technical concepts in ways that stick, creating focused practice plans, and providing feedback on your progress. This combination of targeted instruction and strategic practice leads to stronger retention and better exam performance.
Your tutor can help you assess readiness through practice exams, diagnostic reviews, and honest conversations about your confidence level. Most certification exams have published study guides and pass rates you can reference. A good benchmark is consistently scoring at or above the passing threshold on full-length practice tests under exam conditions. Your tutor can also help you decide if you need more preparation time or if you're ready to schedule your exam.
Varsity Tutors works with tutors across many industries and certification types. If you're preparing for a specialized certification, reach out with details about the exam and field—tutors often have expertise in niche areas, and we may be able to connect you with someone who's a great fit. Even if a direct specialist isn't available, tutors skilled in related subjects can often help you master the material and exam strategies.
