Between his biology coursework at Wofford and his EMT certification, Daiven spends most of his time absorbing information fast and applying it under pressure — a combination that translates well to helping a sixth grader bounce from a pre-algebra assignment to a science worksheet to an essay outline in one sitting. His science background anchors the STEM side, but three years of tutoring across a wide range of subjects means the reading and writing portions of the homework pile don't throw him off either.

A statistics degree means Taylor thinks in systems — how variables connect, how one weak link throws off the whole chain — which is exactly the lens that catches why a middle schooler's science grade is actually a reading problem, or why their math homework falls apart at the word-problem step. She covers math, science, English, writing, and history at this level, and her analytical training makes her especially sharp at diagnosing where things are breaking down and restructuring a student's approach on the spot. Rated 4.9 by families.
I am open to helping any student of any age with nearly any subject (math, reading, writing, biology, chemistry, economics, civics, Spanish etc). I'm also happy to help with test prep (hello SAT and ACT takers), as well as college application assistance. I'm a strong believer in a patient, non-judgmental, non-intimidating approach to tutoring, and I really try to prioritize the comfort of my students. As someone who has used tutoring myself in some of my harder classes in college, I understand that not everything comes easily to everyone, so I want all of my students to feel comfortable asking any and all questions they might have, or going over a topic as many times as needed to understand it. I'm all about friendly, humble service!
I'm a rising junior at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I was born and raised in Charlotte, NC, and I love helping others understand new subjects.
I am currently a fourth year medical student who is looking forward to helping other students enjoy math and science! I have a masters of science in physiology from Georgetown was well as a bachelors degree in anthropology with minors in medical Spanish and chemistry from UNC Chapel Hill. Having been in school for a very long time, I understand that everyone learns differently and at different paces. I will tailor my tutoring to best help you achieve the grades and changes that you would like to see.
I am currently a student at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill pursuing a degree in Computer Science. I not only am incredibly passionate about programming and computer science, but about math and learning in general. I have experience teaching people young and old about computers and the way the work in depth. I love meeting new people and finding out the way they think so I can better serve them as a teacher.
I am a graduate of the University of California - Berkeley where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Economics and Data Science. Throughout college, I have volunteered with numerous education equity organizations dedicated to helping children from challenging socioeconomic backgrounds thrive in school; taught Reading to students K-8, taught for a summer enrichment program , and worked as a group tutor for data science at university. Whether it is working with younger students build their foundations or helping older students advance in core subjects, I have a passion for education and making learning as fun and accessible as possible! Outside of tutoring, I work as an economic researcher in the public sector and volunteer at environmental oriented non-profits.
I am a current student at Guilford College pursuing a degree in Biology, and I would love to help any student find their passion in math and science! I especially enjoy teaching cellular biology and botany, as those are my academic specialties. I love working with visual learners especially to help create diagrams and charts that can take information to a new level. Outside of the classroom, I like to hike and tend to my plants in my garden. Let me know if I can be of any service, either online or in a local coffee shop!
I am a recent graduate of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I was a full time student-athlete at UofM, and I majored in Spanish while completing Pre-Medicine courses. I just took the MCAT and am currently applying for Medical School. I have a wide variety of academic interests and look forward to helping students in any way I can!
I am currently a physics major at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have previously tutored at Mathnasium, teaching primarily middle school students with some elementary school students and some high school students. I primarily teach physics and math. I am very passionate about teaching, because I think every student has a different perspective. It is truly amazing how different students tend to think compared to adults, often displaying immense amounts of creativity, enthusiasm, and courage that most people could only dream of. It is important not to underestimate these qualities in young scholars, which is why I make it my goal to personally understand the students that I teach.
I am extremely passionate about teaching and I am considering becoming a professor of Chemistry. Don't ever hesitate to ask me questions! I'll be more than happy to answer them!
I am currently enrolled at North Carolina Central University as a Psychology major. I hope to go to grad school after attaining my bachelors degree and eventually become a licensed talk therapist. Though my focus in school is on Psych, Ive chosen Reading and English as my tutoring subjects because ever since I read my first book as a child I've had a passion for both. I love reading new stories and learning new things and I treasure having the ability to comprehend and be able to help others comprehend underlying themes and messages that are being relayed throughout different texts. I believe that as long as you have the right strategies, reading comprehension can become a tool in anyones belt. There is a lesson in every text and that is a concept I will strive to be able to pass along to all my students. Outside of academics, I play the clarinet and spend most of my free time with the Marching Band at my school.
I'm a current student at the University of Virginia, working and studying in Charlottesville during the school year and Charlotte during summer! I'm looking forward to tutoring you or your children! I'm a persistent, dedicated student who has experience working with those younger than me and I hope to share my academic knowledge and experiences. High school AP classes are my favorite subjects to tutor. In my free time, I enjoy sailing, hiking, practicing yoga, and spending time with my miniature dachshund.
I'm a University of Michigan graduate, where I got my bachelor's degree in history in three years. I've been a history buff all my life and take a particular interest in the American Revolutionary period. Currently, I'm an editor/producer for a major sports website, helping out on the college sports side. Go Blue!
I'm passionate about helping students improve their test-taking and STEM skills. With experience working as a math tutor at a learning facility as well as a part of my own tutoring business, I am confident that I can help students succeed.
I am a current undergraduate student at UNC Chapel Hill. I am a double major in journalism and French.
Hello! I'm Kyle Gee, a passionate tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Urban Studies and Business Economics from Brown University. With experience in tutoring and coaching, I thrive on helping students achieve their academic goals, particularly in subjects like Spanish, basic math, and drawing. My teaching philosophy centers on patience and guidance; I believe in empowering students to discover answers independently, using analogies to enhance understanding and retention. I find great joy in witnessing their progress and confidence grow. In my free time, I enjoy drawing, which fuels my enthusiasm for teaching art. I am dedicated to creating a supportive and engaging learning environment that fosters curiosity and success.
Between a Dartmouth history degree, a Master's in Education from Boston College, and current JD work at Duke, Jennifer has spent her entire academic life toggling between reading-heavy disciplines and analytical writing — exactly what middle schoolers are learning to do across English, social studies, and science. She's especially sharp on the writing and study skills side, teaching students how to organize their thinking before putting pen to paper, whether it's a persuasive essay or a set of history notes. Rated 5.0 by families.
I am persuasive and capable of developing rapport and trust, as well as experienced in influencing the attitudes and ideas of others.
Growing up with two siblings who have ADHD gave Arial a firsthand understanding of how different brains handle the organizational chaos of middle school — switching between math homework, a reading response, and a science worksheet in one evening. Her English degree from Duke sharpens the language arts side, but she covers the full middle school spread including math, science, social studies, and study skills, and she's especially good at adapting her approach mid-session when a student's usual strategy isn't working.
Paige covers the full spread of middle school academics — from pre-algebra and basic physics to essay structure and grammar — so students dealing with multiple tough classes can work with one tutor who keeps everything connected. Her approach is to break intimidating problems into smaller, concrete steps that build real confidence. She holds a 5.0 rating across her sessions.
Between UNC Chapel Hill honors coursework and a Columbia graduate program in international affairs, Maha has spent years rapidly context-switching across reading-heavy, writing-heavy, and analytical disciplines — which is essentially the middle school experience compressed into every homework night. She covers math, reading, writing, science, and history at this level, and her own background in visual arts and creative writing gives her a way into subjects that feels less like drilling and more like actual thinking. Rated 4.7 by families.
Four years of working directly with K-8 students taught Ashley that middle school is where kids either build real academic confidence or start falling behind. She covers everything from organizing a five-paragraph essay to breaking down pre-algebra word problems, tailoring each session to what a student actually needs that week. Rated 5.0 by students and families.
As a high school math teacher who has also worked extensively with special needs students in one-on-one settings, Brianna knows how to adjust her explanations on the fly when a middle schooler's confidence starts to wobble — especially in math, where gaps from earlier grades tend to surface all at once. Her University of Richmond math minor and marketing analytics concentration mean she can connect pre-algebra and data concepts to real-world examples that actually land with a twelve-year-old. Rated 4.9 by families.
An English degree and a subject list that spans pre-algebra through creative writing, Spanish, psychology, and history means Sara can sit down with a middle schooler and move fluidly from a math worksheet to an essay draft to vocab review without skipping a beat. Her writing and literature background is the anchor — she's particularly sharp at teaching students how to read a prompt carefully and structure a response — but she carries that same clarity into the analytical subjects. Rated 4.9 by families.
I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Duke University. I received my Bachelor's degree in History and my Master's degree in Religious Studies. Since graduation I have tutored students in American History and Biblical Hebrew, which were exceedingly rewarding experiences. I am especially passionate in helping students learn to think critically, and enjoy the process of learning. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most enthusiastic about tutoring in History and Writing because these subjects utilize skills that students will use and cultivate throughout their lives and are applicable for many careers. I would describe my teaching philosophy as hands on and project-based learning. I strive to include fun and relevant videos, songs, and activities into my curriculum to ensure the engagement of my students. Outside of academia I like painting, baking, hiking, photography, and having game nights with friends.
I am an avid rower and bicyclist. I also greatly enjoy growing vegetables and playing basketball.
I am currently doing research on personalized therapies for glioblastoma brain tumors at the Duke Medical Center, before I continue on to medical school. I love to swim, walk my pug dog, and hang out with family and friends in my free time. I hope I can help you in your studies. I look forward to working with you!
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and I am studying social studies with a focus on Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. I have lived my whole life until college in the incredible countries of Rwanda and Kenya (with one year in Egypt). Since education wasn't easily accessible to me through elementary school, very early on I had to learn how to love learning and teach myself. Even after many years of more formal education I haven't lost that spark and that ownership of my education yet! I love tutoring because it allows me to bring people into that same kind of ownership of their knowledge. I love tutoring all sorts of different subjects, but I have the most experience (and maybe the most love) for tutoring in calculus, French, Arabic, English as a second language, and test prep!
I am a Marshall Scholar and will begin graduate studies at the University of Cambridge in the fall.
I am a recent graduate of Duke University, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in 2014. I am primarily a math tutor but I also enjoy teaching chemistry and physics. Math was always my favorite subject in high school and I continued my love of math at Duke. I have also been a middle school and high school tutor throughout my time at Duke through the Program in Education. One of my crowning achievements at Duke was winning the DT Stallings Award, which is awarded to a Duke senior who has shown sustained and dedicated service to tutoring local school children. When I am tutoring a student, I prefer a very hands-on approach. I love working out problems with my students after working through an example problem completely. By working problems out with my students, I am able to help them if and when they get stuck. I hope to convey to every student the ability to think logically and persevere when things seem difficult.
I am willing to help a student reach higher grades, but more important to me than the grade is that the student is actually getting something out of what we are doing, and truly learning, not just retaining information, but engaging with the material and enjoying what they are learning. I firmly believe that hard work pays off, and with the right encouragement and help, a student can achieve anything they set their mind to. You're never to old to learn something new, and the doorways opened by education are endless.
I am passionate about helping secondary and post-secondary students to read texts carefully, to make arguments cogently, and to tell a story about themselves, the world around them, and the things that are important in their lives. I believe that the humanities really do help us be more human with each other and in our world. I teach and tutor with the assumption that school is a set of practices that anyone can learn and that, when they engage those practices diligently, students gain empathy and critical thinking skills that are transferable to all of their endeavors.
I am a PhD student in Literature at Duke University. I have been tutoring (and directing tutoring programs) for years and am looking forward to working with you to meet your goals! I have spent nearly every year since college tutoring in some capacity, including as a volunteer through my current church. I enjoy the challenge of discerning the best way for each particular student to understand and absorb information, and am always thrilled to see when they regain their confidence in their own abilities.
I am currently a graduate student at Texas State University, pursuing a specialist degree in School Psychology. A major deciding factor in my career choice was the field's emphasis on helping all students do their best at school and at home, which directly applies to my approach to tutoring. I love to learn and I love helping others feel successful in their classes. I have been informally tutoring peers and my younger siblings from a young age, and continue to do so today.
I am a graduate student in the Masters of Interdisciplinary Data Science Program at Duke University. Previously, I worked at Student Support Services in Puerto Rico as a Data Analyst, and, prior to that position, I worked as a Math and English tutor. Throughout my life, I have tutored college kids from less privileged backgrounds, who carry different types of academic and personal struggles, and I empathized a lot with them. I know the feeling of walking in to a classroom and understanding nothing, the void that forms in your head. My goal is for people to understand and learn. Once you learn a concept, nothing can break your foundations.
I am Professor Florence. I teach at USC, UCSB, Pepperdine University, CSUN, Cal Tech, and other Universities. I received my bachelor's in Math and Psychology at UCLA, Ph.D. work in Engineering at Virginia Tech, and MBA in Marketing and New Venture Management at USC. I graduated at the top of my class, Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude, Highest Honors, full fellowships, and more. I am an expert on:
I'm hoping to help my students get as excited about learning as I always have been! My most recent teaching experience has been with a local marine biology summer camp, where I do my best to get the kids stoked about biology, ecology, environmental science, and conservation. While I feel most passionate about marine biology, I am also qualified to tutor a variety of different subjects. I have taken the SAT 11 different times, and feel very confident teaching standardized test subjects! For me, tutoring is about breaking down difficult subjects into bite-sized pieces for my students to understand. My motto is "baby steps," and I love finding new and personalized ways to make learning fun for my students. Outside of academia I can be found exercising, singing, playing the ukulele, lounging on the beach, or finding new and exciting ways to annoy my cat Mozart.
I am a third-year college student enrolled in a rigorous international program and I will graduate with two bachelor's degrees in 2023. One degree will be from Duke University and one will be from Duke Kunshan University in Kunshan, China. I received a full-tuition scholarship to attend Duke Kunshan University. I spent my freshman year studying in China, and I now live and study on Duke's campus in Durham, North Carolina. I have always been a strong student, with a current 3.94 GPA in college. I earned a 1510 on my SAT and am great at SAT tutoring as well as editing college application essays. I am also proficient in Spanish as a second language, and have experience tutoring Spanish language learners as well as Spanish-speaking English language learners. I have more than 3 years of tutoring experience working with children ages 7 up to adults. As a tutor, I consider myself knowledgable, motivated, and patient.
I am passionate about biomedical engineering, and am endlessly amazed by intricacies of the world around us. My degrees are in engineering (BS-General Engineering from Harvey Mudd, MS- Mechanical Engineering, and PhD-Bioengineering from Georgia Tech), but I also love art and literature and linguistics. Outside of academics, I am an avid sports fan (and rugby player) and I love to cook, hike with my dog, and travel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Middle school is a pivotal transition where students juggle increased academic rigor, multiple teachers, and social changes. Common challenges include keeping up with homework across subjects, struggling with organization and time management, falling behind in core subjects like math and English, and losing confidence when grades dip. With Charlotte's 31 school districts serving over 118,000 students, classroom sizes and teaching approaches vary widely—personalized 1-on-1 instruction can help students catch up and build momentum before high school.
In a typical classroom with a 16.8:1 student-teacher ratio, teachers must pace lessons for the whole group, which means some students move too fast while others fall behind. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction adapts to your student's learning style, fills specific knowledge gaps, and moves at their pace—whether that means slowing down to master fundamentals or accelerating through material they understand quickly. Tutors can also focus on the exact topics causing trouble, rather than following a standardized curriculum.
The first session is about getting to know your student and understanding their specific needs. Tutors will assess current skill levels, identify knowledge gaps, discuss learning goals, and ask about what's been challenging in the classroom. This information helps create a personalized plan for the weeks ahead. You'll leave with a clear sense of how tutoring will help and what to expect moving forward.
Yes. Many middle school students benefit from support across subjects—whether that's math, English, science, or social studies. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who specialize in the subjects your student needs most. Some families start with one subject and add others later as their student gains confidence and momentum.
Tutoring goes deeper than homework help. While tutors can certainly assist with assignments, personalized instruction focuses on teaching underlying concepts, building problem-solving skills, and addressing the root causes of struggle. This approach helps students become more independent learners and perform better on tests and in class—not just on individual homework assignments.
Many students show noticeable improvement in 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially in confidence and understanding. Measurable grade improvements often take 8-12 weeks as concepts solidify and students apply what they've learned in the classroom. The timeline depends on the subject, how far behind the student is, and how frequently they meet with their tutor.
Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have expertise in their subject areas and experience working with middle school students. Tutors understand grade-level curriculum standards and know how to explain concepts in ways that click for young learners. When you get matched with a tutor, you'll learn about their background and teaching approach.
Simply reach out to connect with Varsity Tutors, and we'll match your student with a tutor who fits their needs and schedule. You'll discuss your student's challenges, goals, and availability, and then get introduced to a tutor who can help. Most families are able to schedule their first session within a week.
