Sarah

Calculus Tutor • +32 Subjects

I am an incoming freshman at Northwestern University, and I will be studying economics and international studies. I have lots of experience in mentoring students individually and teaching in the classroom through being a student intern for a sophomore honors English class. I love working with students who are preparing for tests or college admissions because it gives me an opportunity to impart my knowledge of the college application process to others and empathize with them on all their concerns. I believe that education and critical thinking are key to expanding your horizons and achieving your goals in life. Hobbies: reading, writing, books, music, art

Karishma

Calculus Tutor • +32 Subjects

I am very dedicated to helping students excel in school and in helping them develop study methods and styles that work best for them and that will serve them throughout school. I previously tutored with Boys Hope Girls Hope in Evanston, IL. I tutored middle and high school students in Spanish and English, and I was able to help them develop study strategies such as using flashcards or translating a sentence they had spoken aloud that day in their heads for extra language practice. I am very excited to be able to tutor again and to work with students. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a previously struggling student excel and to have helped them improve along the way. Hobbies: reading, music, running, art, books, dancing, writing

Rebecca

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects

I am a graduate of Northwestern University where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Religious Studies. I am currently pursuing a masters degree in social work at the University of Chicago's School of Social Service Administration. I am passionate about tutoring because I want everyone to be able to perform academically at their highest possible level. I also think it is important that learning is not just for one assignment or one test, but rather that it sticks with you to build a solid foundation of knowledge and confidence that you can carry forward. My favorite subjects to tutor include English, SAT test preparation, math, and psychology. My approach to tutoring is to meet the student where they're at and go from there. I find that this way we can build a productive tutoring relationship where I can help individualize learning to each person's particular learning style. Outside of academic interests, I enjoy cooking, being with friends and family, traveling the world, and looking as ridiculous as possible doing Zumba.

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects students across all 13 schools in Elk Grove Village with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends one of the local elementary, middle, or high schools, tutors are available to support their specific curriculum and learning goals aligned with Illinois academic standards.

With over 6,000 students in the Elk Grove Village district, we see consistent demand for math, science, and English language arts support—especially as students progress through middle and high school. Many students also seek help with standardized test preparation, including Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) exams and ACT prep, as well as support in foreign languages and AP coursework.

Your first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's current level, learning style, and specific challenges—whether that's keeping up with classroom material or preparing for an upcoming exam. The tutor will ask questions about what's working and what isn't, then develop a personalized plan to help your student succeed in their Elk Grove Village school.

While Elk Grove Village schools maintain a solid 12.5:1 student-teacher ratio, personalized 1-on-1 tutoring provides something classrooms can't—instruction tailored entirely to your student's pace and learning style. A tutor can spend focused time on gaps in understanding, answer questions without time constraints, and adjust teaching methods to match how your student learns best.

Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We work with families to create flexible arrangements that fit their budget and schedule. Contact us for a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs.

Tutors are available for core subjects like math, science, English, and social studies, plus foreign languages, test prep (ACT, SAT, IAR), AP exam preparation, and specialized support in subjects like chemistry, physics, and algebra. We also help with study skills and homework support across grade levels.

We consider your student's subject, grade level, learning goals, and personality to connect them with a tutor who's a great fit. If you're not satisfied with the match, we'll work to find someone better. The goal is for your student to feel comfortable and confident working with their tutor.

Tutors work with families to find times that fit around school, activities, and family schedules. Whether your student needs help during the week, on weekends, or during school breaks, we can arrange sessions that work for you. Frequency and timing are completely customizable based on your student's needs.
