Shiven
Algebra Tutor • +16 Subjects
I am a Junior at Rutgers University studying computer science. During my sophomore and junior years of high school, I authored the first Java programming class in the public library. I taught children aged 9 through 13 the basics of computer programming and writing applications in Java. In addition to computer science, I am passionate about teaching math and am a firm believer that teaching should be fun and interactive to be effective. I am well-versed in all math subjects through Calculus 2.
Katie
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +33 Subjects
I earned a bachelor's degree in psychology at the University of Maryland in May 2023. I would like to use my degree in a field that involves education, children, and studying child cognition. I have over 3 years of tutoring experience, and math has always been a passion of mine. Thus, I prefer to tutor children in math, but I am qualified to tutor in subjects such as Spanish, science, and English. I find it very rewarding to help students learn and overcome struggles they have in school. Their smiles alone make the work worthwhile to me. My past experience tutoring students includes working with children between the ages of 6 and 16. While tutoring, I try my best to keep the student engaged by including physical and virtual math games, physical learning tools, and other learning instruments designed to make learning more engaging for students. My tutoring style is pretty hands-on, but I also try to sit back and allow the student to think more deeply about the content and absorb the knowledge on their own. Outside of academia, I love to draw, especially with graphite, but I do occasionally use charcoal, colored pencils, and pens. I also love to exercise at the gym, but I especially enjoy hot yoga and pilates classes. I was also a gymnast all throughout my childhood and adolescence, and I was a gymnastics instructor at my hometown gym in college.
Zane
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +20 Subjects
Everybody learns, and everybody learns differently. The importance of pedagogy, the practice of teaching, cannot be overstated. It is not enough to share knowledge; knowledge must be communicated. This is the philosophy by which I have tutored and by which I currently tutor. With 4th grade students and with college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students learn, so that they can do so most efficiently.
Phoebe
8th Grade math Tutor • +43 Subjects
As a student of life, education, both formal and informal, energizes me. On the formal front, I have my AA in Psychology, my BA in Criminology, and my MS in E-Commerce, and I have an equally diverse post-studies career history. My love of education has taken me to Southern California where I fed my love of law and learned about film. Next, I visited rural Florida with a stint at a Community Theatre. I've even spent a fair amount of time in the Hospitality Industry in Las Vegas, which, unexpectedly, introduced me to the construction industry. Through all of this, I have been a professional tutor for profit and pro bono. I believe education should be available to everyone regardless of age, sex, or socio-economic status, and I utilize learning identification to impart wisdom in the most effective way possible for each student's needs. I love that magical moment when the student "gets it." With experience in a broad range of subjects, mathematics is the most enjoyable for me, as well as LSAT Logic Games I'm the weirdo doing LSAT games at the tea house. My spare time finds me in nature for hikes and trail runs, and I can regularly be found on an obstacle course (Spartan, Tough Mudder, SISU, etc.) or doing an extreme endurance events either racing or supporting friends. Life is to be learned and lived!
Krishnabalaji
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +20 Subjects
I graduated from the high school of BASIS Chandler and I currently major in Computer Science at Arizona State University. While I did do some volunteer tutoring for Algebra I and II in high school, my more formal work experiences include teaching Math and English at Kumon to mostly primary and middle school kids and working as a Undergraduate TA at ASU to assist college freshmen with EEE 120 (Digital Circuit Design). While I can teach a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones to teach are programming and mathematics. What draws me towards instructing others is that having gone through education myself, I developed an ability to efficiently analyze and break down problems, and this is something that I'd like to pass down! As a bonus, each new piece of knowledge learned expands your world a little!

Ayomide
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am a current Master's in Public Health student at the University of South Florida. I graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelor's in Biology and minor in public health. I have previous experience tutoring middle school reading and math. I enjoy helping students better understand concepts because I know how it feels to be confused, and it seems like no one is able to help you. I hope to be that person who can help you better understand the subject and maybe enjoy it too! My favorite subject is math, especially calculus and algebra!
Nicholas
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am a fourth-year aerospace engineering student, pursuing a minor in Computer Science. With over seven years of tutoring experience, I specialize in helping students excel on the ACT and SAT, as well as mastering high school and college-level math. My journey as a tutor began with one-on-one sessions and grew to include large classes. I taught my first 100-student session through Varsity Tutors. While it was initially daunting, it quickly became one of the most rewarding experiences of my tutoring career. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra 2 because it forms the foundation for much of mathematics and is essential for success on standardized tests like the ACT and SAT. I believe the best way to learn is through practice, so I focus on guiding students through practice problems to build their confidence and deepen their understanding. This approach allows me to identify their individual needs and tailor my teaching to help them succeed. Outside of tutoring, I am passionate about astronomy and enjoy exploring the skies using my collection of four telescopes. Soccer is another significant part of my life; I enjoy playing and watching the game. By sharing my experiences and enthusiasm for learning, I aim to inspire my students to approach challenges with confidence and curiosity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors across the full spectrum of math, including arithmetic, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, statistics, and more specialized topics like linear algebra and differential equations. Whether you're building foundational skills or tackling advanced coursework, tutors work with students at every level to strengthen understanding and improve performance.
Expert tutors focus on helping students understand the 'why' behind mathematical concepts, not just the 'how.' Through personalized 1-on-1 instruction, tutors help you see patterns, make connections between topics, and develop problem-solving strategies that apply across different types of problems. This deeper understanding builds lasting skills and confidence, especially when facing new or unfamiliar math challenges.
Word problems are a common challenge because they require translating real-world situations into mathematical language. Tutors help break down this process by teaching you how to identify key information, choose the right approach, and set up equations strategically. With practice and guidance, you'll develop a system for tackling word problems systematically rather than feeling stuck at the start.
Math anxiety is real and common, and tutors are experienced in creating supportive environments where students can learn without pressure. Personalized instruction lets you work at your own pace, ask questions freely, and gradually build confidence through small wins and understanding. As concepts click into place, many students find their anxiety decreases naturally and their enjoyment of math grows.
Showing work isn't just about getting credit—it reveals your thinking process and makes it easier to catch mistakes. Tutors guide you in developing clear, organized work habits that help you and your teacher understand your reasoning. This practice also strengthens your problem-solving skills by forcing you to slow down and think through each step rather than rushing to an answer.
Multi-step equations require understanding the order of operations and how to work backwards systematically. Tutors break these problems into manageable pieces, helping you see the structure and develop a strategy before diving in. You'll learn to recognize patterns in different types of equations, which makes solving them feel less overwhelming and more like following a logical process.
Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who understand different curriculum approaches and can align instruction with what you're learning in class. Whether your school uses a traditional or more progressive approach, tutors work with you to build understanding in ways that connect directly to your coursework and help you succeed on your class assessments.
