Kerry
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +37 Subjects
I am currently a student at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business. I am working on my third year in the Bachelors of Business Administration program. Throughout my time in both college and high school I have experienced the frustration and pains of students, whether it be myself or my friends. I have always helped my friends with the subjects they struggled with (Calculus, ACT science, Economics, etc.) because I want to see them succeed. I decided to become a tutor to help others succeed as well. I teach ACT, SAT, Statistics, Economics, Business, Math, English, Environment Science, Reading, Writing, and Essay Editing. I especially enjoy teaching Essay Editing, Reading, and Writing because there is more flexibility and opportunity to add your own style into these subjects. Outside of school I enjoy playing tennis, working out, DJing and cooking. Hobbies: reading, cooking, music, writing, art, books
Henry
Calculus Tutor • +30 Subjects
I am a rising Junior computer science major, biochemistry minor at Carleton College. I remember how important asking for help was when I was studying for exams and would love to assist students going through the same process. Although I am knowledgeable in many subjects, I am most equipped tutoring in college and high school-level computer science, college and high school-level biology, and SAT prep. During high school, I tutored my classmates in preparation for the SAT, and have two years of experience tutoring college students in computer science courses. I learn best when I understand the practicality and relevance of the material, and hope to instill those concepts in my lessons.
Jason
Calculus Tutor • +14 Subjects
I'm an incoming full-time MBA student at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business. Growing up, my mother was a teacher, and instilled in me a love for learning. In high school, I tutored my younger brother across many subjects. Since, I've volunteered as an SAT Tutor with New York Cares for an underfunded public school in my old neighborhood in Manhattan.

Surina
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +45 Subjects
I am currently a fourth year dental student at University of Michigan. I graduated from Barrett, the Honors College at Arizona State University with a double Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and Psychology. I have been tutoring for approximately eleven years, and have worked with students ranging from third grade to college students. I began tutoring as a way to give back to the community, help students become interested in the world around them and grasp the knowledge just waiting at their fingertips. I have tutored a variety of subjects including Math, Reading, Writing, and Science classes, as well as standardized tests such as the SAT and assisted with college admission essays. I really enjoy tutoring Math, because it was one of the subjects I struggled with the most while going through Middle School and High School. It taught me how essential it is to have a strong foundation not just in Math, but in any and every subject. Having struggled in certain courses before, I understand how frustrated students might get if they are struggling to understand something that is not "sticking," and I try to make tutoring more interactive and fun to counteract that. Also, I focus on making sure students truly understand the concepts we are learning, rather than just memorizing facts in the moment. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing badminton, singing, and traveling to new cities around the World.
Phil
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am a chemistry/math tutor with hundreds of hours teaching both subjects. What separates me from other tutors is my fantastic attention to the learning styles of different students, and my ability to attune my teaching style to each individual student. I am a big believer in letting students utilize tutoring time in the way they believe best, and I try to make myself a resource more than an instructor, which reinforces good study habits as well as lets me help the student with subject material. I will be attending the University of Michigan to major in Mathematics in the Fall. Hobbies: books, music, art, reading, writing
Nikitha
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a Computer Science graduate from the University of Michigan, initially from central New Jersey. I have worked to tutor students through Varsity Tutors for around 4 years. I am confident in my abilities to tutor with college admissions exams such as the SAT and ACT, including specialized SAT subject tests. I also tutor in math, until Multivariable Calculus, and can help with computer science skills and languages. I believe teaching is best done through discussion and conversation, and lead my tutoring sessions with this mentality. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy playing tennis, piano, and exploring new coffee shops!
Trishani
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +51 Subjects
I am a student at the University of Michigan, pursuing a major in Psychology with a minor in Spanish and Business. I am committed to helping instill the element of curiosity into students and giving them the tools to ensure success. I have eight years of tutoring experience starting at elementary school mathematics, science, and language arts. Along with that, I have tutored students primarily in middle and high school level mathematics, PSAT & SAT math and language arts. I have a passion to leave students with a little more than the facts and opinions that they learn, but a way to express the knowledge during their lives.
Rachel
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +27 Subjects
I am comfortable working with students in general education and students with disabilities. I have a lot of experience teaching from the past year, and two years of pre-student teaching and student teaching experience in college, along with experience tutoring students during the summer.
Uchenna
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +45 Subjects
I'm Uchenna! I'm from Beltsville, MD and I currently am taking a year off between my third and fourth years at the University of Michigan Medical School to do biomedical research at the NIH. I also graduated magna cum laude from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) with a B.S. in Biochemistry and a minor in Psychology. I have quite a few years of tutoring under my belt as I tutored for about 3 years when I was at UMBC. And although I had no formal tutoring positions in medical school, my classmates and I constantly taught each other our material and various concepts. I love tutoring because I know trying to be successful in your coursework can be difficult and when you can help someone throughout that journey, it truly is beneficial for both tutee and tutor seeing the mutual satisfaction in that person's progress.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. With 62 schools across Ann Arbor's 6 school districts, Varsity Tutors connects students from every district—including Ann Arbor Public Schools, Saline, Dexter, Chelsea, Milan, and Manchester—with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and expectations. Whether your student attends a public, charter, or private school, we can match them with personalized instruction tailored to their specific coursework.
Michigan's M-STEP assessments and high school standards require strong foundational skills in math, reading, and science. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students master these standards at their own pace, filling specific knowledge gaps that larger classroom settings—with Ann Arbor's 13.2:1 student-teacher ratio—may not address individually. Tutors focus on the exact concepts your student is struggling with, building confidence and competency in state-required content areas.
Your first session is an assessment and planning meeting. The tutor will discuss your student's current coursework, specific challenges, learning style, and goals—whether that's improving grades, preparing for AP exams, or strengthening fundamentals. They'll outline a personalized plan and explain how sessions will be structured to address your student's needs. Most families find this initial conversation clarifies exactly where to focus effort.
Ann Arbor students frequently seek help with algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus as math concepts become more abstract, as well as chemistry and biology as science coursework increases in rigor. English composition, AP exam preparation, and foreign language proficiency are also common areas where personalized instruction makes a measurable difference. The specific subjects depend on your student's grade level and academic path, which we discuss during the initial connection.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions—there's no one-size-fits-all cost. We work with families to find a tutoring plan that fits their budget and their student's needs, whether that's weekly sessions or intensive test prep. Contact us to discuss your situation, and we'll provide transparent pricing for the specific support your student needs.
Varsity Tutors connects students with subject-matter experts—many with advanced degrees, teaching credentials, or specialized expertise in their field. Tutors are vetted for their knowledge and teaching ability, ensuring they can explain complex concepts clearly and adapt instruction to each student's learning style. Whether your student needs help with Michigan state standards or advanced AP coursework, tutors have the expertise to guide them effectively.
Progress shows up in multiple ways: improved grades on assignments and tests, stronger performance on M-STEP assessments, increased confidence in class participation, and a clearer understanding of previously difficult concepts. Most families notice changes within 3-4 weeks of consistent sessions. Your tutor will also provide regular feedback on your student's progress and adjust the approach as needed to keep moving toward your goals.
Start by telling us about your student's needs—their grade level, subject areas, current challenges, and goals. We'll match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and academic needs, and you'll have a personalized tutoring plan in place quickly. Most families connect with a tutor within a few days, so your student can begin making progress right away.
