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...

I am a great tutor because I am young and enthusiastic. I can relate to the kids I tutor because I recently experienced the classes and standardized tests that they are taking. I use an informal style so that the student can feel comfortable asking questions. I try to connect personally to the stude...

Economics is just about figuring out people, and what's a more interesting topic than people? You've been an Economist ever since you were a kid and figured out that when you start crying, your parents give you a cookie to shut up. All those weird vocab terms are ideas you figured in elementary scho...

Cameron
ACT English Tutor • +32 Subjects
I graduated cum laude from Case Western Reserve University with honors in English, Political Science, and International Studies. I have experience working with a diverse range of students, from Adult GED candidates to grade school readers to South African high school poetry students.I am trained to tutor in reading comprehension and writing for all levels, U.S. and European history, SAT/ACT (Verbal, Reading, Writing, Literature, Subject Tests), ESL, and college applications. With experience working for a diverse range of students, my teaching philosophy is that patience, expertise, and enthusiasm are essential to the learning process. I commit to providing these qualities for each student I tutor.Outside of my studies, I love walking my two German Shepherds, practicing yoga, and enjoying a good book (don't worry, I have plenty of excellent recommendations for you!).
David
ACT Math Tutor • +36 Subjects
I believe that anything can seem easy if it's presented in the right way, at the right pace. If I can make a student interested in a topic and engage with their learning style, learning happens much faster and more effectively, and doesn't feel like work. I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough.Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking (acrobatic martial arts), playing video games, and reading fiction.

Stephanie
Algebra Tutor • +37 Subjects
I have been a professional tutor since January 2016, but I was always the one asked to lead study groups. Since Elementary school I've been known as the person in class to clarify concepts that were unclear during the lecture. I work well with all age groups, and have found that individual, personalized approaches work best for each student. I love to learn and I am excited to help others find their love for education as well.

Rebecca
Certified Reading Intervention Tutor • +16 Subjects
I am a Special Education Teacher with a focus in K-3 reading and math skills. I am Orton Gillingham certified and love to incorporate multiple senses into each one of my lessons. I also love to provide students with movement and wiggle breaks as they need them, as I know that learning can be challenging for kiddos.
Cameron
ACT Prep Tutor • +32 Subjects
I graduated from Colorado College (top 25 LAC) in May of 2020 with a degree in Political Economy and a minor in Math, after attending on a full scholarship. I will be starting an MS in Data Science at Georgetown in the Fall. I've recently served as a high school fellowship coordinator on major political campaigns and before that served as a volunteer coordinator. I am very passionate about teaching math as it is something I struggled with before achieving a high level of mastery. But I am also quite capable at instructing in English, Government, Economics, and general writing. I would say I am the type of tutor who works through challenges with students instead of for them.

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.
