I am more passionate about the latter, and within the humanities I am most passionate about philosophy and English. The most important thing I've learned from those two fields (and the thing I'd most want to pass on to students) is how to find the right words for thoughts - this is important, not ju...

ACT Math Tutor • +61 Subjects
I'm in my 2nd year of medical school at the University of Central Florida. I previously graduated Cum Laude from the University of California, San Diego with a degree in Human Biology and Education Studies. I was an Academic Mentor for underprivileged San Diego communities. I was also a Teaching Assistant for the Biology department at UCSD. I have taught in a variety of settings; from one-on-one tutoring to review sessions for 300 people in a lecture hall. I primarily tutor MCAT, SAT, and the SAT.In my experience, rather than the Tutor being an all-knowing power who lectures on the information, the most beneficial environment for the student is one that feels like a conversation. By creating a dynamic atmosphere between Tutor and student, the student will be able to truly understand the material. Constant collaboration is the key to a student's success and I have spent years mastering this skill.My interests, outside of teaching, include sports, music, and international work. I personally understand the everyday challenges that student athletes must overcome and I can tailor my approach to best fit their academic needs. On top of sports, I have spent my entire life learning either the piano, guitar, or ukulele. I traveled to Italy and spent two weeks there to sing for the Pope. I recently completed a ten day medical mission in Vietnam, providing primary health care and aiding the surgery team for ten or more hours each day.

Hello!First, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as a Merit and Terry Scholar at the University of Houston Honors College, pursing a bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology with a concentration in Pre-Medicine. I currently have a cumulative GPA of 3.901 and am expected to graduate in May 2018. I graduated with the IB diploma and was summa cum laude in the top 3% of my class. I have tutored students through various organizations in high school and college and was a recommended to tutor with Varsity Tutors.My curriculum comprises of integrated technology and science courses such as Organic Chemistry, Genetics, Biochemistry, General Math and Chemistry. I believe that the use of technology in medicine will vastly improve medical practices and innovations. These classes will assist me in gaining profound knowledge in the sciences. I am willing to tutor subjects such as Chemistry, Math, Writing, and any IB class/topics.In addition to classwork, I am also a member of the medical honor society, Alpha Epsilon Delta, and the American Medical Student Association. I am also working with the Bonner Leaders Program and have certification in leadership through the Ted Bauer Leadership Certificate Program. I am volunteering at the Texas Children’s Hospital at the Medical Center learning about the practices and day-to-day work. I am currently developing a service-learning program called Honors in Community Health for the greater Houston area. My goal is to help inspire a passion and goal for Houston residents through the power of education.I am confident that my background and knowledge of community based service, coupled with my interest in science and education, I will work hard with fellow tutors to not only help educate, but mentor students to choose higher education. The greatest form of satisfaction comes from being able to help a struggling student get over the hurdle of a difficult question. I want to ensure that a difficult class will not discourage the students I tutor from continuing their education.Remember: Everyday is a new day to write a page in your personal story, so keep moving forward! :)

CLEP Prep Tutor • +10 Subjects
I am a psych and criminology double-major from UNCC and am currently working towards my forensic psychology MS from NSU. At UNCC, I spent some time as a TA in the psych department. The teaching/tutoring experience was invigorating for me, as it allowed me to help others understand the topics I love so much. In particular, I have experience working with abnormal psych, child psych, psychology of learning and memory, social psych, and forensic psych (though this one is definitely my favorite!). I believe in simple explanations of complex subjects and using everyday examples as illustrative tools. I hope I can help to make the field of psychology more accessible and enjoyable to everyone!

Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects
As far as I can remember, I've been the go-to guy when you wanted help with a subject, whether it was advanced mathematical concepts during my Bachelors Degree days, or software engineering principals in my Masters degree program. It was for this reason that I was specifically picked out by one of my professors to be his teaching assistant for two semesters of classes before I graduated. So confident was he in my skills that he was able to go around the requirement that TA-ships be only handed out to Phd level students.After graduating with a Master's Degree in Computer Sciences from the University of Texas at Arlington, I've been involved in a number of software development jobs including my current one in a Fortune 100 company. I can can back up my academic knowledge with extensive industry experience. However I haven't lost touch with teaching as I'm still called upon by friends for consultation about software engineering and design concepts.I'm computer enthusiast enjoys tinkering with hardware and software in my spare time and am pretty confident in my computer science teaching abilities. And since math goes hand in hand with computers, I'm well versed in math subjects as well.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from the Amirkabir University of Technology. I just got my Master's degree in Chemical Engineering and working on my Ph.D. I am also getting another Master's degree in Computer Science at the same time at Wayne State University.I believe there is always learning in teaching, so I enjoy helping others with their education goals not only because of improving their level of knowledge but also mine.Since I was an undergraduate student, I've been teaching different subjects to so many students from various age groups, backgrounds, and personalities.I do believe the best way to help students is first to build a strong relationship and then try to see the subject from their perspectives so you can focus the light on the dark parts that are the most needed. It makes the teaching/learning process smooth, efficient, and enjoyable for both sides.I am open to tutoring all the mathematics, physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, and computer science-related subjects.I believe the education goal is to search and find our answers to make life better not only for ourselves but all human beings, and in the search for the answers lies the answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Tucson's 427 schools and all 67 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Tucson Unified School District, Sunnyside, Sahuarita, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands Arizona's academic standards and local curriculum expectations.
Tucson's average student-teacher ratio of 15.2:1 means individual students often don't get the focused attention they need in the classroom. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction fills that gap by providing dedicated support tailored to your student's specific learning style, pace, and goals—something that's difficult to achieve in a traditional classroom setting.
Tucson students commonly seek tutoring in math, English, science, and test preparation (SAT, ACT, and AP exams). We also work with students on Arizona-specific requirements like passing the AIMS exam and meeting state standards. Whatever subject your student is struggling with or wants to excel in, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an expert tutor.
Tutors who work with Tucson students are familiar with Arizona's K-12 standards and graduation requirements, including proficiency expectations in English language arts, math, science, and social studies. They can help students close specific skill gaps, prepare for state assessments, and build confidence in areas where they're falling behind—ensuring they're on track to meet Arizona's benchmarks.
The first session is focused on getting to know your student—their learning style, current challenges, and goals. The tutor will assess where they stand academically, identify specific areas that need support, and create a personalized plan moving forward. This foundation helps ensure that every future session is targeted and effective.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's grade level. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets, and many families find that the focused, personalized instruction delivers strong results that justify the investment. Contact us for a consultation to discuss pricing and find a tutoring plan that works for your family.
Many students show noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on their starting point and how frequently they work with their tutor. Building strong academic skills is a process, and the most sustainable results come from regular, focused practice. Your tutor will track progress and adjust strategies to keep your student moving forward.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and experience teaching or tutoring their area. Many hold degrees in their subject, have classroom teaching experience, or bring specialized knowledge—like test prep certification or advanced subject mastery. When we match your student with a tutor, we ensure they're well-qualified to help your student succeed.
