Elena
AP Spanish Literature and Culture Tutor • +10 Subjects
Based on my experience as a student and as an instructor, teaching is an ever-evolving process where one is always looking for ways to improve yet also finding new challenges as research, teaching technology and classroom dynamics, and one’s own perceptions of what is an effective class, change and develop. I also find that I learn a lot from my students, and this sharing of opinions and experiences enriches the class content and keeps me from repeating the same patterns and routines. My goal in teaching is to not only stay in tune with new research, but also maintain and appreciation and an open eye for the process of teaching as a unique and dynamic event.
Elliot
Algebra Tutor • +13 Subjects
I'm a Junior at Texas A&M University. I was originally a biomedical engineering student, but have since transferred into biology with a minor in sociology. My career interest is in medicine. I have had previous experience with tutoring in high school when I was a member of the National Honor Society and mentored peers to help them excel in their math and science courses. I have also worked for Varsity Tutors for almost 6 months and have helped many students achieve better grades. I love sports, I'm sociable, I'm goal oriented, and can be competitive!

Hi,Having taught during my career in different fields, I would love to have an opportunity to continue with one of my passions.I find it very challenging as well as rewarding to try and find out why a person is having trouble understanding a concept.I have a master's degree in air traffic control from Europe, a web design programmer diploma and a mobile application certification.So my background is pretty much math, some physics and programming.Being from French Guiana, my native tongue is French and I know how hard this language can be for learners. Genders for everything?Yes, but you should not be afraid and soon it'll become a habit.I do hope you'll trust me with your learning.Jean-Yves but please call me Jay.

Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a chiropractor who enjoys tutoring and working with young students. I am a graduate of Edgewood College and Palmer College of Chiropractic. I love to play soccer, run and watch almost any sport. When not working I can often be found watching sports or playing soccer. While working with students my goal is to help them reach the goals they have set for themselves. I help them achieve these goals by tailoring my teaching/tutoring styles to best fit their learning style. Everyone learns and retains information differently and I strive to find out how each of my students learns the best and implement that into my sessions. At the end of the day my goal is to make learning fun and for my students to learn and feel good about themselves. I tutor biology, anatomy, general science, microbiology, biochemistry, math and reading.
Jimmy
Algebra Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington in Biology with a chemistry minor. My fields of expertise include math and science. I have taken a lot of math and science courses and I enjoyed every single one. For the past 7 years, I have tutored students from the elementary to the high school level. My goal for every student is to be thorough and efficient. I strive to help them understand what they need to know in a timely manner. I believe that every student is capable to understanding what they are learning if they are given individual attention. I am happy when I am able to help students comprehend when they are learning in school.
Akanksha
Biology Tutor • +7 Subjects
Hello! I've had over four years of tutoring experience in both College Level Sciences (Microbiology, General Biology 1 and 2, Genetics, and Physics) and English courses.I want students to be excited to come to my sessions, and make these sessions a safe space. When it comes to my tutoring philosophy, I think its very important to form a positive relationship with my students. I always begin each class with getting to know how everyone is doing. I believe every student has a different style of learning, and different interests. I try to make the material relatable to students, and a successful session involves you teaching the material back to me.
Sarah
Conversational Spanish Tutor • +6 Subjects
Buenos das! I am a native of Nashville, TN, and I received my B.A. in Spanish at Belmont University. I spent my junior year studying abroad in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, which was one of the greatest cultural and linguistic experiences of my life! I have been teaching Spanish since 2014, and I am currently working on my Masters in World Language Education at UGA.I have a great deal of passion for the nuances of the Spanish language, and I love to share it with my students. Masculine/feminine agreement, verb conjugations, the subjunctive tense - these can be tricky concepts to grasp, but my philosophy is that, at the end of the day, it is all about communication.When I'm not teaching, I love cooking, hiking, kayaking, reading, singing, playing my ukulele, and, of course, continuing to gather more knowledge about the Spanish language and cultures.

Frequently Asked Questions
Honors Physics moves faster and digs deeper into conceptual understanding and mathematical reasoning. Beyond just learning formulas, you're expected to apply physics principles to complex, multi-step problems and analyze real-world scenarios. Personalized tutoring helps you build a strong foundation in core concepts like motion, forces, and energy—so you can tackle the more rigorous problem sets and lab work with confidence.
Many students struggle to "see" invisible forces or understand how objects behave in different motion scenarios. Tutors use diagrams, animations, and real-world demonstrations to make abstract ideas concrete. For example, they might use free-body diagrams to show how multiple forces act on an object, or walk you through how velocity and acceleration differ in practice. This visual and kinesthetic approach helps the concepts stick so you can apply them to new problems.
Honors Physics labs go beyond following a procedure—you're often asked to design experiments, form hypotheses, collect precise data, and analyze sources of error. Tutors can help you understand the "why" behind experimental steps, guide you through data analysis and graphing, and teach you how to write thoughtful lab reports that connect your findings to physics theory. This builds your scientific reasoning skills alongside content knowledge.
Unit conversions and dimensional analysis are essential in physics but trip up many students who don't fully understand the logic behind them. Tutors break down the "why" of conversion factors and show you how to use dimensional analysis as a problem-solving tool, not just a mechanical step. Once you see how units guide your work and catch algebra mistakes, these skills become natural and actually save you time on problem sets.
Understanding Newton's laws or conservation of energy in isolation is one thing; recognizing how they explain everything from car crashes to roller coasters is another. Tutors connect abstract principles to tangible examples and current events—explaining how an athlete applies force, how engineers design bridges, or how space missions use orbital mechanics. This deeper context makes the material more meaningful and helps you retain it better.
Students often struggle with multi-step problem solving, understanding when to apply which formula, and translating word problems into physics equations. Others find the math—especially trigonometry and calculus foundations—overwhelming. Tutors focus on teaching you a systematic approach to problem-solving, help you build conceptual understanding so you know which tools to use and why, and shore up any math gaps that slow you down.
Honors Physics builds critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and the ability to model complex systems—skills valued in engineering, medicine, and STEM fields. Tutors help you develop a problem-solver's mindset: asking "what forces are at play here," breaking problems into manageable steps, and checking whether your answer makes sense. These meta-skills transfer to other subjects and future coursework, making you a stronger student overall.
