I'm now living in New York City pursuing a career in casting and producing theater. Although I have found my passion in the arts, I find great fulfillment tutoring math and science, because I think it's important for students to know they can succeed in these challenging subjects. I seek to develop an individual learning plan for each student, discovering the tools that will best help them succeed. My previous private tutoring clients have gone on to graduate at the top of their class. In addition, I am also an experienced SAT and ACT prep tutor.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Chicago, where I received Bachelor of Arts degrees in English Literature and Linguistics. I have been able to pursue my passion for languages and literature in my career as well as my studies. I have taught English as a second language, critical reading, grammar, and academic and professional writing to students of diverse backgrounds and proficiency levels, including incoming university students, business professionals in South Korea, and fifth and sixth graders in south side Chicago. I am especially excited when I get to help students work on their writing skills, and the breakthroughs my students have had in learning to express their own unique voices and perspectives clearly and articulately are some of our favorite teaching moments.
I am currently working on my doctorate in Environment and Resources at Wisconsin-Madison, studying tiger ecology and conservation with sub-field foci on predator ecology, and modeling population dynamics.
I am a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, majoring in Materials Science & Engineering with a certificate in German. I graduated in 2017 from Sartell High School in Sartell, Minnesota. I've been working as a camp counselor teaching German for two years, which has given me a lot of experience teaching others. I have always been especially proficient in foreign languages and look forward to tutoring language students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, petting dogs, and spending time with friends.
I am a current sophomore at Brown University, where I study Applied Math and Urban Studies. I have tutored in a high school ESL classroom, as a private tutor, in a local community center, and on online platforms. I love tutoring all subjects, and I'm especially passionate about teaching math. As a tutor, I work to meet each student where they're at by helping them find connections between existing knowledge and new subjects. I believe every student can find passion, motivation, and empowerment in education, and I love helping students develop the knowledge and skills to get there.
I'm a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison majoring in Biology and English. I also work as an undergraduate writing tutor through the university's writing center. I tutor a variety of subjects, but I'm most passionate about high school and college level English and STEM skills. I believe that anyone can improve their writing through clear, logical thinking and that STEM classes, though intimidating, can be tackled by breaking down topics into smaller portions and building up from there. Outside of school, I write short stories, sketch, and hike.
I'm a 24-year-old professional journalist, so I write for a living and I'm constantly having to learn about new new industries, new terms, new people. It's a wonderful job because it makes me a permanent student of the world, but I miss interacting with young students. I love teaching because I love learning, and I want to help other people find that same love of learning that I had growing up, because that guides me through life. I especially enjoy teaching writing and math. I'm sure this is heavily influenced by the fact that I learned those skills from two of the greatest teachers I ever had -- my mom for math, and a woman named Amy for writing.
I am an incoming sophomore at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, originally from San Diego, CA. I'm currently pursuing a double major in international studies and political science, with a certificate in Mandarin. I have been both been a member, and later in charge, of tutoring programs at a local K-8 school tutoring math, writing, and reading. During this time, I also tutored fellow peers in various subjects, including history and government which I have always loved. Personally, I have had most enjoyed tutoring writing and math, but I am more than happy to help however I can. When approaching tutoring any subject it may be, I would describe my approach as enjoyable, throughout, and cooperative. I'm not here to stand on a pedestal or look down upon anyone in any way, but to simply lend all the knowledge I have and work together towards achieving all desired goals in an entertaining and effective way.
I am interested in making physics and math relatable to people who are not naturally adept at it. I have taken the SAT, the general GRE and the physics GRE subject tests.
Hi! My name is Danny. I'm a graduate student pursuing M.S. Urban and Regional Planning and M. Public Affairs degrees at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I'm a teaching assistant for Landscape Architecture 321 (LA321): Environment and Behavior Studio - Designing Health Promoting Environments. I specialize in tutoring SAT prep for high school students. I tailor my teaching style to meet the needs of each student. I start with a hands-on approach in which I show the student how to solve problems. Afterward, I try to be hands-off to allow the student to learn and explore. I push students to realize and apply their own abilities and intellect. Successful tutoring is a two-way street!
I am a passionate tutor of several subjects, with an emphasis on high school math. I attended Johns Hopkins University and spent a semester abroad in Seville, Spain. Since graduating in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics, I have worked in software development, education, and the performing arts -- I like a bit of variety to keep life interesting! I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Educational Policy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My personal interests include dance, cooking, and podcasts.
I am attending a lecture about The Great Gatsby, I will be eager if the speaker tells of the beauty she sees, rather than a quick and dirty type of analysis. I regularly talk to people who admit math wasn't their favorite subject in school. Some were self-conscious. Some had gaps they never filled. Some just didn't care. Whatever the case, I admit to them that math is my favorite art form with as much room for expression as sculpting or jazz. I claim that mathematicians are half artists, half observers of fine art. My conversants often tell me it is an epiphany for them to think of math as such, and that it helps heal their math wound. A marvelous way I have found to unveil beauty in the classroom is by using surprise. I like to present ideas from a simple perspective, discuss them briefly, then release a theorem. Thales' theorem (the diameter of a circle subtends a right angle to any point on the circumference) is a great example, especially with the aid of Java applets. After playing a bit with triangles by moving points around in a worksheet, it's surprising to be able to connect two structures as basic as a right triangle and a diameter. Next in importance to marveling at beauty, I want students to learn to think critically to solve problems. Understandably, some students have never had guidance past high school drills. All the more, problem solving should be emphasized and revisited throughout college curriculum. I have many years of experience in problem solving competitions and a collection of principles regarding problem solving that I like to follow. One is about inverse problems. Consider the following: if baseball cards are five cents apiece and shipping costs fifty cents, how many cards will one dollar buy? After making the arithmetic clear, students had better know how to calculate the forward problem, i.e. "How much will x number of cards cost?" I'm depending on them knowing the forward problem because we covered it last week, but it is important to bring it out in more than just a mention so the students have a comfortable base to start. It's like revisiting rational numbers before diving into irrationals. They are intrinsically tied, and it gives the class confidence to start with old material.
I am a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin- Madison, currently purusing a Masters degree in Industrial Engineering. I received my Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering, along with a Certificate in Business, from UW as well. Education has always been important to me, and tutoring allows me to share that passion with others. I first got into tutoring through a volunteer program in high school, and I continued to tutor during my undergraduate studies, which was some of the most rewarding work I've ever done. My engineering background has allowed me to take a wide variety of math and science courses, including Caclulus, Physics, and Chemistry, a few of my favorite subjects to tutor. I enjoy helping students prepare for standardized tests, as these tests require not only knowledge, but quick thinking and strong decision making skills. During my free time, I like playing Ultimate, reading, and playing an occasional game of Cribbage with friends and family.
I am a math enthusiast who is passionate about helping students gain confidence and achieve. I began tutoring other students in middle school and continued throughout high school. I believe all students have the potential to understand math, but they can be intimated or have trouble finding the learning method that works for them. With my extensive experience tutoring students of various age groups through different mediums, I have seen how my emphasis on building a strong foundation and understanding how concepts/formulas work, patience, and encouragement helped students see math in an approachable manner. I participated and scored well in various math competitions throughout high school. Additionally, I am experienced in high school standardized test preparation. I am also a native Mandarin speaker.
I am confident in my ability to help any student--whether it's mastering a mathematical concept, improving a standardized test score, or perfecting an essay.
I am currently a first-year Master's student at the Yale School of Public Health. I received my Bachelor's in biology at UCLA. As a Californian, I enjoy sunny weather and eating avocados.
I am a bilingual school-based speech-language pathologist in Milwaukee. I have been working in the schools for over 4 years supporting Spanish speaking students with communication disorders. I completed my Master's in speech-language pathology from Marquette University in 2016. I have also tutored students of all grade levels in Spanish, math, reading and writing for over 8 years, and enjoy supporting learners so they can be successful at school and work towards their goals for the future. I work on a daily basis to support English language learners and students with special needs, and have tutored students from many diverse backgrounds. My approach to tutoring is identifying each individual's strengths and skills, and teaching specific strategies so the student can feel empowered to support their own learning. I am patient, thorough, and receptive to how each student learns best.

I am in the honors program with a GPA of 3.97 and am a National Merit Finalist as a result of my PSAT and SAT scores from high school. I hope to pursue a master of science degree in occupational therapy beginning in the summer of 2020. I enjoy providing individualized attention and personal instruction to help students who might otherwise struggle to understand and am motivated by seeing students succeed.
I am a graduate of the University of Delaware. I received my Bachelors of Mechanical Engineering degree and obtained minors in Mathematics, Economics, and Biomedical Engineering. Since graduation I've worked for a large diversified manufacturing company in one of their leadership rotational programs. Over the past 2 years I've moved from Hartford, CT to Charlotte, NC and currently reside in Milwaukee, WI. During this time I've been active in the local communities, volunteering up to 10 hours per week. Much of my volunteer work has been focused on helping adult learners in Math and English as they progressed towards obtaining their GED and also helping young learners in the same subjects. I am a strong believer in not only learning the material at hand, but also developing a study strategy that will ensure long term success, regardless of the subject.
I'm a recent re-hire at Varsity, and in the interim I've had a couple positions. I work for a pharmaceutical testing company right now, after a stint with Epic.
I am looking forward to meeting you at our first session.

I am currently a resident physician at Northwestern Hospital.
Currently a second-year law student at the University of Chicago, Elena tackled the LSAT recently enough to remember exactly where the logic games and conditional reasoning trips people up. She teaches Analytical Reasoning by breaking each game into setup diagrams and inference chains, so students stop staring at the board and start eliminating answers with confidence. Her perfect 1600 SAT speaks to her comfort with high-stakes standardized tests, and her 4.9 rating shows that approach translates to her students.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and how consistently you apply feedback. Most students see meaningful gains—often 5-10 points—when working with a tutor who identifies your specific weak areas and helps you develop targeted strategies. The key is consistent practice between sessions combined with personalized instruction that addresses your unique challenges, whether that's logical reasoning timing, reading comprehension retention, or analytical reasoning diagramming.
Your first session focuses on understanding where you stand and where you want to go. A tutor will typically review your diagnostic test results, discuss your target law schools and score goals, and identify which sections are causing the most difficulty. This foundation helps create a personalized study plan that prioritizes your biggest opportunities for improvement.
Timing is one of the most common LSAT challenges, and tutors help by teaching you to recognize question patterns, prioritize high-confidence questions first, and use strategic guessing on harder items. Rather than just drilling faster, a tutor helps you understand *why* you're running out of time—whether it's inefficient reading, overthinking logical reasoning, or struggling with analytical reasoning setup—and addresses the root cause with targeted practice.
Absolutely. Many students connect with tutors to focus intensively on their weakest section—whether that's reading comprehension, logical reasoning, or analytical reasoning. A tutor can drill that specific section with targeted strategies and practice tests, then help you maintain your stronger sections as you prepare. This focused approach is especially effective when you have limited time before your test date.
Most experts recommend completing 20-30 full-length practice tests under timed conditions before test day, though the exact number depends on your timeline and starting score. A tutor helps you use these tests strategically—not just for scoring, but for identifying patterns in your mistakes and refining strategies. They'll also help you review tests effectively, focusing on understanding why you missed questions rather than just moving on to the next test.
Yes. Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty about question formats, weak pacing strategies, or past timed test experiences. By building confidence through targeted practice, explaining the logic behind each question type, and developing reliable strategies you can trust on test day, tutoring directly addresses the root causes of anxiety. A tutor can also help you practice managing stress during timed sections and develop a pre-test routine that builds calm confidence.
Most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of consistent preparation, though this varies based on your starting score and target score. A tutor helps you create a realistic study schedule that balances tutoring sessions (typically 1-2 per week) with independent practice between sessions. They'll adjust the timeline based on your progress and test date, ensuring you have enough time to master weak areas without burning out.
Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores (typically 170+), law school experience, and a track record of helping students improve. Beyond credentials, the best tutors understand the test's logic deeply and can explain *why* answers are correct, not just what the answer is. They should also be able to adapt their teaching style to your learning preferences and diagnose your specific challenges quickly.
