Samuel

Calculus Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am recent graduate of Sewanee: The University of the South, where I earned a B.A. in English and minors in biology and chemistry. Unsurprisingly, these subjects are where my interests lie, and I also love to help with preparation for standardized tests, especially the critical reading portions of them. I have experience tutoring molecular and cell biology and coordinating a tutoring program for pre-health students at my alma mater. When tutoring, I want to help students do what my past tutors and professors helped me to do: go further than learning discrete facts and instead learn to learn. I want to help you develop your ability to think critically, apply previous knowledge to new material, and break down complex ideas. As a result, you can expect me often to ask the question, "Why?" Overall, my goal is to help you get to the point that you no longer need me! And that's okay, because my unemployment will indicate your success.

Crystal

Calculus Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a graduate of Northern Kentucky University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Education with a minor in Japanese Language and Culture, and I have recently returned to NKU to pursue a Master of Arts in ESL Instruction through their Teacher as Leader program. Since graduation I have begun my career as a teacher at a local charter school where I work as a Title I Reading instructor and ESL instructor with grades K-12. While I tutor in a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about Literature, Writing (including editing and drafting), and Japanese. In my experience working with children of all ages, we do our best to have fun even when studying the tough material by approaching learning through varied activities and methodsI strive to help my students think outside of the box when approaching problems. I believe that education is a necessity for current and future generations and that it leads to immeasurable opportunities that can take them anywhere they wish to go in lifeand this is a belief I strive to pass on to my students. My spare time is spent reading high fantasy literature, sewing and crafting, writing poetry, playing with my two cats, or simply relaxing at home with a good video game or two.

I'm currently a college freshman.

Henry

12th Grade math Tutor • +70 Subjects

I'm an Economics major at Vassar College who has tutored peers and children for four years, and have learned as much from teaching as those I've taught. In my experience it is easiest for a student to learn when their teacher engages with them directly and adapts their way of teaching to the learning style and interests of the student. This has always been how I have learned most effectively as a student, and is how I attempt to instill knowledge as a teacher. Hobbies: books, writing, reading, music, art

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cincinnati has 44 school districts serving over 88,000 students across 235 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a Cincinnati Public Schools campus, a suburban district like Sycamore or Mason, or a private school, tutors can provide instruction tailored to your specific school's curriculum and standards.

Ohio has specific learning standards for each grade level and subject, and tutors understand how to align instruction with those benchmarks. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring allows tutors to identify gaps in understanding and target instruction to help students master Ohio standards at their own pace—whether that's preparing for state assessments, strengthening foundational skills, or advancing ahead of grade level.

Cincinnati students seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects, with math and reading comprehension being particularly common at elementary and middle school levels. At the high school level, algebra, geometry, chemistry, and standardized test prep (ACT and SAT) are frequent requests. Varsity Tutors also connects students with tutors for AP courses, foreign languages, and specialized subjects based on individual learning needs.

The first session is focused on understanding your student's specific needs, learning style, and academic goals. The tutor will assess current skill levels, discuss any challenges your student is facing, and ask about your expectations. This information helps the tutor create a personalized learning plan that addresses your student's unique situation—whether that's catching up, keeping pace with their Cincinnati school's curriculum, or preparing for a specific test or goal.

Cincinnati schools maintain an average student-teacher ratio of 18.4:1, which means individual students often receive limited one-on-one attention in the classroom. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring provides dedicated focus on your student's specific learning gaps and strengths, allowing tutors to adjust pace and teaching methods in real-time—something that's difficult in larger classroom settings. This targeted approach helps students build confidence and mastery faster.

Yes. Many Cincinnati high school students prepare for the ACT and SAT, and Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who specialize in standardized test prep. Tutors can help with content review, test-taking strategies, time management, and practice testing. Personalized instruction allows tutors to focus on the specific sections where your student needs the most improvement, whether that's math, reading, writing, or science.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. Varsity Tutors works with families to find tutoring options that fit different budgets and schedules. During the matching process, you can discuss your needs and budget, and tutors can work with you to create a plan that makes sense for your family.

The process is straightforward: tell us about your student's needs, subject, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match your student with a qualified tutor who fits those requirements. You'll have the opportunity to connect with the tutor, discuss your student's specific situation, and begin personalized instruction on a schedule that works for your family.
