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 have taught over 100 college and graduate students in my career, in courses ranging from writing seminar to research methods.I'm currently faculty at The New School (Parsons School of Design, Eugene Lang College) and CUNY (City College, Queens College), and an Isador Lubin Fellow in the PhD Program at the Milano School of International Affairs, Management, and Urban Policy at The New School. I hold an MS in urban planning from Columbia University and a BA from Sarah Lawrence College. I am a proud native New Yorker and mildly patriotic first-generation American.
Eric
Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects
I am a graduate of The University of Tennessee where I received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting. I also have an MBA from Tennessee Tech University and am a CPA. Outside of my academic accomplishments, I have worked in a Fortune 200 Energy company within its Finance and Accounting functions and have worked for a global healthcare company that is ranked 258 on the Forbes Global 2000 list performing various financial and accounting leadership roles. Most of my current work includes financial modeling and controlling for a global IT project, while running the FP&A function for our domestic HR Team and assisting our operations team with various types of financial analysis. I would say that I am most passionate about teaching CPA prep, Accounting, and Finance, as I have found so much practical use out of those subjects in my daily life. I practice Accounting and Finance every single day when building financial models and supervising my co-workers, some of whom are new to this subject matter. I enjoy helping people who are either students or early in their careers not only understand the subject matter they are trying to learn but also helping them understand how that knowledge can help them in their careers.This translates well to helping students prepare for the CPA exam, learning advanced financial modeling techniques, as well as basic finance and accounting. I believe that education, next to health, is the most important thing in someone's life as it opens doors to so many opportunities. In my spare time, I enjoy vigorous exercise, world travel, and I am an avid college football fan.

Luis
10th Grade Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am a student at Miami Dade College, and I aim to transfer into Florida International University. I am pursuing a Bachelors degree in Physics and Philosophy, and more specifically Applied Physics and Philosophy of Science. Throughout my academic career I have increasingly become amazed at and passionate about the fundamental studies in the scientific field, such as pure mathematics, physics and chemistry. I tutored many of my classmates during my high school years and eventually became know as "the neighborhood tutor". Immediately after high school i began to tutor privately and have been doing so for two years. Aside from my own independent tutoring, I have worked as a math tutor in a separate tutoring company as well as a Physics assistant in my college where I helped various groups of students with college physics one and two.I have always found it a wonderful experience to introduce or develop a student's understanding of what I consider an exciting and unique perspective of the beautiful world around us. Aside from my primary interest in most science and math courses, I also have become rather adept with writing both explanatory and narrative essays. I hold education to be an intrinsic part of human existence-Humans are meant to learn. For this reason, I believe that teaching is really an internal process that happens within all of us, and my job as a tutor is only to act as a facilitator and catalyst to the powerful potential that exists within all people. Outside of my academic life, i enjoy playing the occasional game of soccer, jamming out on my trumpet, and practicing public speaking skills in both controlled and spontaneous settings.

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.
