Ineye
African-American History Tutor • +18 Subjects
I love real estate and running businesses. It's something I do without thinking about working. I love to see my students get as excited as me when they see the freedom that financial literacy brings them.
Chandni Bharat
Clinical Psychology Tutor • +28 Subjects
I received my MA in clinical psychology in 2016. I am currently working on my second MA in counseling. I have been tutoring for the past 2 years. I love tutoring students as it gives me immense pleasure to see my students succeed. Due to my educational background, my strengths include patience and being able to understand how each student processes information. This helps me in modifying my method of teaching to cater to the unique needs of my students.I am familiar with tutoring in subjects until Grade -4, which includes elementary English, Math, and Science. I also tutor in psychology.When I work with new students, I believe in creating rapport with them. This is important for me as it facilitates learning and also makes it easier for the student to honestly communicate their needs without the fear of being judged.I mostly work from the perspective of student-focused teaching and instructor-focused teaching depending on the topic being taught. I believe that active learning is very helpful for kids to gauge their level of understanding.Since I mostly work with elementary students, my teaching strategies include the use of videos, games, puzzles, crosswords, explanations, diagrams, and assessments.As a tutor, my strengths include patience (to help the student repeatedly and patiently when they reach a roadblock), adaptability (to change my teaching methods depending on the individual needs of the student), and empathy (to relate to the student, to understand their concerns and if required to motivate them to reach their goals).

Christine
Languages Tutor • +9 Subjects
Education has always been a big part of my life. In graduate school, my instructors would often ask me to work with other students in class who needed assistance with the current lesson. This gift of being able to help others resonated with me and I realized very quickly that everyone does not learn in the same way.To tell you a little bit about me, I have over 8 years of working as a Bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist. I'm also certified as a Registered Behavior Technician. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I specialize in a number of subjects (articulation, phonology, receptive and expressive language, swallowing, autism, AAC, etc).I am a patient, kind tutor with a knack for easing anxiety. I understand that students retain best what they do themselves. For this reason, my tutoring philosophy is to allow the student to go as far as he or she can alone and then give the tools necessary to figure the rest out together. This process continues until the student feels confident doing the work alone. I often incorporate motivating activities into my tutoring session to help the student achieve their goals.I currently accepting students to be tutored in the following areas/skills: PRAXIS SLP, articulation, reading, grammar, vocabulary, etc.Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to tutoring you.

I am also passionate about music, theatre, art, and public speaking, and try to find ways to incorporate what I love into what I do every day.And lastly, I'm also a previous student of Varsity Tutors!

Nicole
ACCUPLACER Prep Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a certified early-education teacher (Preschool-G3) with 9+ years of experience teaching. My Masters Degree is in Reading Education (K-12) and I am TEFL certified as well. I received both my Bachelors and Masters degree from Ohio University and since then I have worked with every age level from 2 years and up, whether it be in the classroom or private classes and can teach a variety of subject matter. With a background in Fine Arts I love to incorporate the arts into my teaching whenever I can. Ive always had a passion for teaching and helping others learn and grow, as I myself am a lifelong learner, always striving to better educate myself. I find joy in the little moments, guiding students to discover their potential and self-worth.I tutor all subjects, and I especially enjoy tutoring reading and writing. The foundation to language and being able to express oneself is essential for success in the long run. I believe that the classroom should always be a place where the students feel comfortable to be themselves and ask questions. Curiosity is the key to growing and I try to create opportunities in which students can discover new interests and lead their own journeys, in which I am just there to guide them.Outside of teaching, I enjoy being outdoors- hiking, traveling, playing sports, yoga. I am passionate about the environment and sustainable living. I love expression through art and photography, as well as reading a good book or watching an independent film. I love to meet new people and believe that everybody you cross paths with teaches you something.

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.
