Rachael
Anatomy & Physiology Tutor • +3 Subjects
I am a two year post-graduate of Emmanuel College where I was a pre-med major. During my time at Emmanuel, I was heavily involved in the school's tutoring program. For two and a half years I worked as Emmanuel's biology, and Anatomy and Physiology tutor, as well as a part-time lab assistant for Organic Chemistry. In addition to tutoring college level classes, I also was a part-time teacher's assistant at a local preschool. I was very fortunate to work in both fields at the same time as it resulted in creativity with my higher level lesson plans, and examples of real-life application to demonstrate to my preschool students.

Algebra Tutor • +19 Subjects
I graduated from Carleton College in the spring of 2020 with a degree in Political Science. For the past two years I've interned for a literary magazine called the Chicago Quarterly Review, considering story submissions and writing reader reports for the senior editor. Although currently living in Sag Harbor, I am in the process of applying to law school, with the goal of becoming either an attorney or a law professor.In my four years at Carleton, I tutored sixth graders in reading and math through the Northfield Tackling Obstacles and Raising College Hopes program (TORCH). I greatly enjoyed this experience, as I discovered my love of teaching. I tutor students of all ages in reading, math, government, and chess. In my sessions, I strive to encourage young people to arrive at ideas and solutions to problems themselves, with an emphasis on instilling habits of critical thinking and open-mindedness.Outside of academic pursuits, I have a love for blues guitar (Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan are my favorites), chess, and old movies.

Elmarie
1st Grade Reading Tutor • +53 Subjects
Language is power. We all know that the best way to communicate is through verbal and non verbal communication. Humans are understood by gestures or tone of voice and that is how we interpret our state of mind. By this, I will add that we all are receptors of languages constantly and we do get to understand the basics of language in different ways. I personally learned English listening to music and watching TV programs. Language intrigued me so much that I ended up majoring in linguistics and communication in English. My native language is Spanish and took Italian in college as a third language. I am here and more than happy to help you achieve your goals in learning a new language.
Caroline
AP U.S. Government & Politics Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am a graduate of Barnard College of Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a minor in Spanish and Latin American Cultures in 2020. While at Columbia, I privately tutored undergraduate students in all levels of Spanish for four years, as well as running a weekly Spanish help room. Outside of my academics, I am interested in public policy and plan to go to law school.While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Writing, and Spanish. In my experience helping struggling students with their writing and language acquisition, I am always fascinated by the diversity of learning styles among students. I aim to tailor my tutoring to a student's particular needs to provide them the best possible service.
Sam
Algebra Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am a graduate of Vanderbilt University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Economics and History with a minor in Art History. Since graduation, I have worked full time in business development for a large healthcare corporation and have also pursued entrepreneurial/ start-up ambitions. I have made time to travel the world (recently visited France, Switzerland, Italy, India, Brazil, and Iceland). I have played guitar for over 15 years and also spend time drawing live models! For several years I was a tutor and coach for the Boston Scholar Athletes Program, a program focused on teaching English and Math to student-athletes and then coaching them in soccer. I tutor a broad range of subjects, although I am most interested in Algebra, History, and English Literature. I am constantly learning and looking to help others learn too! I love teaching and strive to achieve that "AHA!" moment.

Gabrielle
College English Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am excited to work with your student! I graduated from Florida State University last May with my Bachelor's degree in Women's Studies, and I returned to Miami to work with the education non-profit City Year Miami. City Year focuses on improving attendance, behavior, and coursework outcomes for students at low-performing schools. As a City Year interventionist, I had the privilege of working with ESOL students at Miami Carol City Senior High. I worked with my core group of students to improve pronunciation, vocabulary, and comprehension, but I also had the opportunity to interact with students from diverse subject areas during after-school tutoring. I helped students craft and edit essays, understand assigned reading, review Spanish language rules and applications, and overall create positive strategies for information retention. I have a huge passion for helping students achieve their personal and academic goals, and I try to be an example of that myself. This year I am preparing to apply to Master's degree programs in social work, and in the meantime I am continuing to provide tutoring services. On a personal note, I am Cuban-American, born and raised in Hialeah. I come from a family of educators, and their mentoring, combined with a scholarship to a college-prep high school, catapulted my success. I am incredibly grateful for those who provided support and encouragement along my academic journey, and I would be honored to play a part in yours!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Hoboken's 4 school districts and serves the full range of students in the city's 16 schools. Whether your student attends a public, charter, or private school in Hoboken, we can match them with a tutor who understands the local curriculum and New Jersey academic standards they're working toward.
Tutors working with Hoboken students are familiar with New Jersey's learning standards and can target instruction to help students master grade-level expectations in math, reading, science, and other core subjects. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, students get support tailored to their specific gaps and learning pace—something that's harder to achieve in Hoboken's average classroom size of 12.2 students per teacher.
Students in Hoboken commonly seek tutoring in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, and standardized test prep for the SAT and ACT. We also see strong demand for foreign language support—particularly Spanish—and help with writing skills across grade levels. The specific needs vary by student, which is why personalized instruction works so well.
The first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building confidence in a subject. The tutor will ask questions about what's challenging, review recent schoolwork, and create a personalized plan. Most students leave the first session with a clear sense of direction and momentum.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions—we work with families to find options that fit their budget. Many Hoboken families find that investing in targeted tutoring prevents the need for more intensive intervention later and often leads to improved grades and test scores. We're happy to discuss pricing options during an initial conversation about your student's needs.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and proven teaching ability. Many tutors have education degrees, professional teaching experience, or advanced degrees in their subject areas. Each tutor is selected based on their ability to work effectively with students and understand the academic standards and curriculum your student is learning.
Yes, we connect students with tutors experienced in standardized test prep, including SAT, ACT, and AP exam preparation. Personalized tutoring is particularly effective for test prep because tutors can focus on your student's specific weak areas—whether that's math problem-solving, reading speed, or content mastery—rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Start by telling us about your student's needs—their grade level, subject, and specific challenges. We'll match them with a tutor who's a good fit, and you can schedule a first session at a time that works for your family. The process is straightforward, and most families connect with their tutor within a few days of reaching out.
