Kennewick families navigating 37 schools across two districts — Kennewick and Pasco — know that Washington state standards set a high bar, and classroom student-teacher ratios averaging 17.7:1 mean even capable students rarely get the individual attention that sharpens their edge. For students pushing into AP coursework, honors classes, or targeting competitive SAT and ACT scores, that gap between classroom instruction and peak performance is exactly where personalized tutoring makes the difference.

Each session starts with a real assessment of where your student is and where they want to go, so the tutor builds a plan around their specific goals — not a generic curriculum. Varsity Tutors matches students with vetted experts who know Washington's learning standards and can calibrate instruction to the pace and depth your student needs, whether that's accelerating through advanced material or locking in mastery before a high-stakes test.

I am currently a graduate level student that will begin work towards my Human Health and Environmental Systems MPH at Oregon Health and Science University in the fall. I held my first tutoring job in high school, where I spent after school and summers working with local elementary school students on reading, writing, and math skills. I loved the rare chance to see the look on a child's face when a tricky concept they had been struggling with suddenly made sense.

I'm a current PhD student in the history department at Georgetown University who is also an experienced instructor with Varsity Tutors. As a recipient of several degrees, the most recent being a BA in history from Hillsdale College and a MA in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies from Stanford University, I have long sought to make teaching my profession. Meanwhile, as a volunteer grade school teacher and a tutor with this company, I have many years' experience helping students reach their full potential. I am capable of teaching students in many subjects, including reading, mathematics, test prep, Latin, and especially writing, history, and literature. In practice, I am comfortable adapting to different learning styles and specific student preferences. Outside of my academic and career endeavors, I enjoy cooking, reading, and listening to and making music.

Middle School Math Tutor • +22 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania with a Masters degree in Education and have been an Elementary and Middle School educator for over thirty years. I have worked with students in the inner city, suburbs, Appalachia, and Deep South. I love teaching and children, and have discovered my passion in tutoring students who are struggling in Reading and Math. I have taught children with learning disabilities to read, and coached students with dyscalculia in math and reading. I worked as a principal for the past eight years, so was working with students from Pre-K to 8th grade, coaching teachers, analyzing data, and tutoring individual students in math and reading. I have worked as a national park ranger in the past, so social studies and history are areas of strength. Students that I teach respond well to my teaching style and enjoy working with me. I believe that education is extremely important for children's futures and do everything that I can to help them be successful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Kennewick's 37 schools in both the Kennewick and Pasco school districts. Whether your student attends a school in central Kennewick or elsewhere in the Tri-Cities area, we can match them with a tutor who understands the local curriculum and Washington state learning standards.

Students in Kennewick most frequently seek help with math, science, and English language arts—subjects that are critical for meeting Washington state standards and preparing for high school success. We also work with students on standardized test prep, including the SAT and ACT, as well as AP and honors-level coursework.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 17.7:1 in Kennewick schools, many students benefit from one-on-one attention that classroom teachers simply can't provide. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by allowing tutors to focus entirely on your student's individual learning style, pace, and specific knowledge gaps—something that's difficult in a classroom setting.

During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, learning style, and specific challenges in their subject area. They'll also learn about your student's goals—whether that's improving grades, catching up after missing concepts, or preparing for a test—so they can create a personalized plan moving forward.

Tutors working with Kennewick students are familiar with Washington's learning standards and graduation requirements, including the subjects and skills students need to master at each grade level. They can target instruction toward specific standards your student is struggling with and help bridge gaps before they impact grades or test scores.

Tutoring pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and how frequently your student meets with their tutor. We offer flexible scheduling and can work with different budgets—reach out to discuss your student's needs and we'll help you find a tutoring plan that works for your family.

Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and experience teaching. Many have education backgrounds, professional expertise in their fields, or proven success helping students improve their grades and test scores. Each tutor is vetted to ensure they're a good fit for your student's needs.

Absolutely. Personalized tutoring is particularly effective for students who need to catch up or who learn differently than the classroom pace allows. A tutor can identify exactly where your student's understanding breaks down, reteach concepts in a way that clicks for them, and rebuild confidence—all critical for getting back on track academically.
