Kelcy

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +27 Subjects

I have an MBA from Rice University and both real-world business experience and teaching experience. Most recently, I taught a first-year college course in Microeconomics for nine years, in addition to other classes in the university's international trade program. My students came from over 30 countries! I've worked in over a dozen countries for the U.S. Department of Commerce, as well as for private firms in building engineering and the energy industry. I enjoy helping students gain competence and master their chosen area of study.

Zach

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects

I am a Yale University Berkeley College graduate of the Yale Class of 2012 with an Intensive B.S. in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. Eager for tutoring opportunities, I welcome any of you who wishes to undergo SAT/PSAT or ACT Test Preparation that will get you the scores you need for admission to the college of your choice. As for my experience, I have tutoring experience in both one-to-one settings, going as far back as high school, and group/classroom settings, especially from my 4 years of tutoring with Yale MATHCOUNTS. As a likely future graduate student myself, it is my general goal in life to continue the tradition of passing forth knowledge. Not surprisingly, I have always considered tutoring and education among the most noble of professions where both parties, student and teacher, benefit and learn. What makes me an excellent tutor? Over the course of my life I have had the good fortune of cultivating a variety and number of skill sets, some of which are academic and social in nature. While I certainly consider academic prowess important for the success of any instructor, I would say the most important skill set I have developed is that of adaptability. If a tutor can adapt him/herself to the mode and manner of thinking of another, the tutor, as well as the tutor's audience, will have especially effective and enriching transactions.

David

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +21 Subjects

My expertise is in classroom, small group, and one-on-one instruction in physics of the first year. I have, however, taught at all levels from non-science major courses through the graduate physics curriculum. My education includes a bachelor's degree in physics from Amherst College and a doctorate from Stanford University. During my career I spent time at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, the University of California, San Diego, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the California Institute of Technology, and Brandeis University, where I worked for nearly 40 years. I am a firm believer that students learn in STEM fields only by doing, not by merely listening. Thus the core of any tutoring experience with me is working on problems. The most formative experience a student can have is to work through a problem, explaining each step to the tutor as he or she goes through it. Only by explaining the concepts and skills to someone else can one be sure of his or her own understanding. My goal in any tutoring interaction is to assist the student in gaining the necessary skills, knowledge, and confidence to attack any conceivable problem set to him or her by a classroom teacher.

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.
