Leigh

ACT English Tutor • +33 Subjects

I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in Elementary Inclusive Education at the Teachers College, Columbia University. I have ambitions to someday affect educational policy and administration - maybe I'll be a principal or school superintendent.In college, I coordinated a reading program with local elementary school students that took place once a week. I also tutored at my college's writing center, working with fellow college students to improve and enhance writing assignments in all disciplines and to strengthen basic grammar and organizational skills. I am excited to be a Varsity Tutor, instilling a passion for learning in my students through experiential, hands-on education that promotes critical thinking skills.I firmly believe that the provision of equal educational opportunities can help foster social equality. I emphasize inquiry-based learning because I believe that students learn best when they are invested in the material and can fully explore its relation to the real world. I am flexible and accommodating in my approach to teaching, allowing all students to reach their full potential.

Belinda Colleen

College English Tutor • +9 Subjects

I am a professional writer with over 20 years of experience. My teaching and tutoring experience spans over 15 years and includes learners of all ages. As a writer and reader of both fiction and nonfiction, I enjoy teaching reading comprehension, test-taking skills and literature. One of the techniques that has worked well for me is to find out as much as possible about a student so that I can customize my teaching techniques to correspond with their interests.I have taught students in the "No Child Left Behind Program" in the subject areas of reading, grammar, writing, algebra and math. In the business world I have also taught business finance and real estate courses.I believe that all children are capable of improving academically provided the instructor can find the best way to customize lesson plans to engage each student's natural interests and aptitudes.

Connor

ACT English Tutor • +24 Subjects

Before starting medical school in the Fall of 2021, I am taking time to explore my lifelong interest in teaching. I began tutoring at the University of Notre Dame, where I worked for three years as a teaching assistant in a Cell Biology laboratory course. There, I enjoyed helping my peers understand the larger picture developing through our weekly experiments. At Loyola University Chicago, I continued to tutor a variety of subjects while earning a Master of Arts in Medical Sciences.As a double major in biology and English, I like to build stories whenever I can. What does a molecule of glucose encounter while going through glycolysis? How does the human body process information from the world around it? This perspective has led not only to success in my own studies, but also to a genuine love of learning.Through one-on-one tutoring, I hope help students seek their own stories and develop a positive lifelong relationship with learning.

SaraJane

College English Tutor • +43 Subjects

In 2015, I graduated from Columbia College with a BA in Comedy Writing and Performance. However, I have a long and extensive background in English. I started tutoring all elementary subjects while still in high school. I edited essays and short stories for my peers and some graduates while in college. I also took many writing courses while there. My great grandmother, grandmother, and mother used to be English teachers, so it seems to be in my blood! I have a passion for grammar, as well as performance. I currently work as an instructor at Chicago Performing Arts and as Lead Educator for Right at School. Teaching is so rewarding. I love being able to watch students learn and grow. It is important for me to relate to my students and make learning fun. I don't think people learn when they're intimidated or bored, so finding ways to connect and make the materials interesting are important steps in my process. I encourage questions and creativity. Every student learns differently, and I make sure I find those differences to come up with the perfect education method for each student.Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Michael

Accounting Tutor • +35 Subjects

I am a graduate of Wright State University in Dayton, OH, with a B.S. in Accounting. I have tutored in many diverse subjects, but am most passionate about teaching accounting, math, and history. I believe the best foundation for learning is to be a well-rounded and constant reader, and will often recommend various books to read along with normal studies to enhance the educational experience. My basic approach is to break a subject down into its fundamental concepts and make sure the student has a thorough understanding of how and why what they are studying is important as well as the specific topic at hand. In my free time, I am an avid reader and baseball fan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Worcester has six school districts serving over 26,500 students across 60 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who understand the different curricula and standards across these districts. Whether your student attends a Worcester Public Schools campus, a charter school, or a private institution, we can match them with a tutor familiar with their specific academic environment and local expectations.

Massachusetts has rigorous state standards, particularly in math and English language arts, and personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to help students master these benchmarks more effectively than classroom instruction alone. Tutors working with Worcester students focus on the specific competencies required by Massachusetts frameworks, including MCAS preparation, writing standards, and problem-solving skills that align with state expectations.

Worcester students typically seek help with math (including algebra and geometry), English language arts, test preparation for MCAS and standardized tests, and science. With Worcester's 15.1:1 average student-teacher ratio, many students benefit from the focused attention that personalized tutoring provides to fill gaps and accelerate learning in these core subjects.

The first session is an assessment and relationship-building opportunity. The tutor will learn about your student's current academic level, learning style, specific challenges, and goals—whether that's improving grades, preparing for MCAS, or building confidence in a particular subject. This personalized approach ensures the tutoring plan is tailored to your student's needs from day one.

Absolutely. MCAS is a critical benchmark for Massachusetts students, and many Worcester families seek tutoring support to help their students perform well on these assessments. Tutors work with students on test-taking strategies, content mastery, and practice problems specific to MCAS standards in math, English language arts, and science.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. We work with Worcester families to create tutoring plans that fit different budgets and schedules. Contact us to discuss your specific needs and get a personalized quote for your student.

Tutors are vetted professionals with subject expertise and experience working with students at various levels. Many have teaching backgrounds, advanced degrees, or specialized training in their subject areas. When matched with your student, you'll receive information about your tutor's qualifications and experience so you can feel confident in the fit.

Yes. Tutoring can be scheduled around your student's school day, extracurricular activities, and family commitments. Whether your student needs sessions after school, on weekends, or during school breaks, we work to find a schedule that works for your family.
