Karen

IB History Tutor • +12 Subjects

I'm Karen, a sophomore in Vanderbilt's Peabody College of Education. I am double majoring in Secondary Education (middle and high school education) and European History with additional endorsements in US History and Political Science.My academic interests are in Soviet/Russian history, especially in Soviet music culture in the 20th century, as well as U.S. involvement and foreign relations during the Cold War. Early U.S. History also is of particular interest to me, but I suspect that has to do with Hamilton! Non-academically, I row here at Vanderbilt (hence the Nike polo), and am involved in several community service organizations, including Next Steps at Vanderbilt, which is a program that pairs Vanderbilt students with other students with intellectual disabilities.I love working one on one with students; I find that personalized instruction where a tutor can really focus on a single student and adapt to their learning styles is one of the most effective ways of learning for students.

Angel

College English Tutor • +6 Subjects

I moved from Taiwan to the states when I was 11 years old. Fluent in both Mandarin and Taiwanese, I started tutoring students while I was a full time student in high school. I have taught American-born Chinese students, Korean nationals, and other US Citizens looking to learn the language! During each tutoring session, individual students focused on different goals when it came to learning Chinese: some students only focused on conversation skills, some focused on preparations for exams given by our local Chinese schools. Transitioning to college, the tutoring continued. Students taking college Chinese classes often email me for quick review sessions to help them ace their college exams.I believe in order to properly learn a new language, practicing the immersion technique will be most beneficial. The more a language is used and practiced the faster we learn. I will also supplement traditional teaching methods with a constantly changing array of context based interactive activities that will help children learn and retain Chinese language, culture, history, and other things (activities such as puppet shows, singing, celebrating traditional holidays & festivals and much more).In my free time I like to hike, beach, shop, practice yoga, explore the city, web page design, cook, hangout with friends and try new restaurants!I am a hard working recent college graduate that is eager to learn, teach with a flexible schedule, and can start as soon as possible!

Jordan

Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am a graduate of Linfield College and a certified secondary ELA and middle level math teacher. I am passionate about helping students build confidence and reach their potential in and out of the classroom. My experience includes teaching 6-9th grade math in Oregon middle schools as well as student teaching and aiding in both English and mathematics classrooms. Some of my personal favorite topics to teach are narrative and argumentative writing, algebra I, and pre-algebra.With the impact of COVID-19 on students around the world, it is more important than ever that students enjoy and feel confident about learning. I approach tutoring with three primary goals: increasing student agency, empowering students with a love of learning, and improving academic skills and confidence.I always start by asking what students hope to get out of our sessions and what questions or topics they want to address. I provide examples, challenges, supports, and modeling as needed to adapt to each student. Giving students the power to guide their learning builds independence and empowers students. I hope students leave sessions feeling accomplished and excited about their learning experience.

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.
