Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Tony

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Whether your student attends a school in Skokie School District 69, District 71, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their school's curriculum and academic expectations.

Students in Skokie frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), English/language arts, standardized test prep (SAT and ACT), and science courses. Many also work with tutors on AP and honors-level coursework to stay competitive. Tutors can also support students learning English as a second language, which is valuable in Skokie's diverse community.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 11.5:1 across Skokie schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to get individualized attention. A tutor can focus entirely on your student's specific learning gaps, learning style, and pace—something that's difficult in a classroom setting. This targeted approach helps students catch up quickly and build confidence in challenging subjects.

Tutors working with students in Skokie are familiar with Illinois State Standards and how they're implemented across local school districts. They design lessons that align with what students are learning in class while filling specific knowledge gaps. This ensures that tutoring reinforces classroom learning and helps students progress toward grade-level and college-readiness benchmarks.

During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, identify specific challenges, and learn about their learning style and goals. They'll discuss what your student is working on in class and create a personalized plan moving forward. This foundation helps the tutor deliver instruction that's truly tailored to your student's needs.

Yes, tutors help Skokie students prepare for the SAT, ACT, AP exams, and other standardized tests. They focus on test-specific strategies, content review, and practice testing with real exam materials. Many students see meaningful score improvements when working with a tutor who understands both the test format and their individual strengths and weaknesses.

Varsity Tutors offers flexible scheduling to work around your student's school, extracurricular, and family commitments.
