ACT Math Tutor • +41 Subjects
Hailing from a grandmother and mother who are both public school teachers, my passion for mentorship and tutoring started at a young age and my new degree from the University of Colorado - Boulder allows me to better help students in need.
Mohammed
College Math Tutor • +13 Subjects
I am a physicist and a teacher. I have a PhD. and Masters in Physics from Arizona State University. I have been Teaching Physics for over 15 years. I have also taught Chemistry and Math. During my graduate study at ASU, I was a teaching assistant and a research assistant for the Department of Physics, where I taught various undergraduate Physics courses and labs. I also taught an advanced lab for undergraduate Physics majors. After graduation, I taught for Phoenix college, Mesa Community College, Grand Canyon University and American Leadership Academy. My students have been from all ages and socioeconomic conditions. As far as teaching philosophy goes, I believe in the Socratic Method, which is that you learn best by asking questions. In my free time I watch movies, watch lectures on Wondrium, listen to music, program in Python, and do photography.
Chase
Algebra Tutor • +5 Subjects
I am currently working on my degree to teach High School Physics at WGU. I have worked with students of all ages to help them understand math and science better. I love tutoring math students in understanding difficult concepts since to be strong in any of the STEM fields you need to have a good understanding of basic math. The best way that I found to help students is to guide them, rather than give the answer. As a student is more likely to remember the concepts if they work it out themselves and understand why you do it that way. In my free time, I tend to be found reading books and enjoying nature.
Eric
Algebra Tutor • +40 Subjects
I'm currently a computer science student at Swarthmore College. While I'm pursuing a technical degree I have diverse interests and I believe that my liberal arts background help me connect and communicate effectively as a tutor. I want to help you or your child understand the core concepts of any field instead of rattling off formulas and techniques for specific questions. To me, the mentor/mentee relationship is one of the most important human relationships --I will take any request seriously and put in my best effort.
Mon-San
Algebra Tutor • +44 Subjects
I am a former educator who has worked in public education in North Carolina for six years. I worked as a fifth grade teacher's assistant in Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, did my student teaching in Wake County Schools, and taught Family and Consumer Sciences at the middle school level in Orange County Schools. I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching degree in Elementary Education from Meredith College and am certified in the areas of: Elementary Education K-6, ESL K-12, Middle Grades Mathematics 6-8, and Family and Consumer Sciences 6-12. I look forward to continuing to help students but under a different capacity as a tutor. Education is about training the mind to think critically and creatively, not training to make careers.
John
AP Spanish Language & Culture Tutor • +25 Subjects
I received my BA from Princeton University, where I studied Comparative Literature and Creative Writing. Within my major, I focused on Latin American literature and Spanish-English translation. After graduation, I spent a year in Phnom Penh, Cambodia as a teaching fellow with the Princeton in Asia organization. I taught ESL and Essay Writing to sixty Cambodian university students. On nights and weekends, I also tutored adult professionals in Business English and communication skills. While I enjoy tutoring a range of different subjects, including SAT Prep, I most enjoy teaching Reading, Writing and ESL. I believe that teachers and tutors should work to communicate their passion for a subject to a student, because interest is often the gateway to understanding and improvement. Along with reading and writing, music has been my lifelong passion. In my free time, I play the guitar and piano, write songs, and occasionally perform around the Boston area. I also like to run and play basketball.
Kelley
ACT English Tutor • +79 Subjects
Being the first in my family to go to college and medical school was not easy. Through many long years of hard work and with the help of my mentors, I was able to accomplish something I truly thought was impossible. I only hope I can also help others come one step closer to their dreams by helping them through their education.
Laura
Admissions Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am currently a 9th grade English Language Arts teacher. Prior to teaching, I attended Harvard College, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Secondary in Education Studies, and Harvard Graduate School of Education, where I completed my Master's in Education. Additionally, I have experience tutoring and mentoring students ages 6-14 at an afterschool program. I love spending my days exploring literature and writing with young people at school, and am excited to do so through tutoring, as well. Some of my favorite areas to explore with students include narrative writing, poetry, and the way literature can function as a way to achieve justice. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy cooking and baking, exploring nature, and running!

I believe my professionalism and friendly approach greatly benefit my students' learning, and my years of living abroad in both Europe and Africa make me very comfortable interacting with people of all backgrounds. I look forward to making lessons interesting and being of service to my students!

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.
