Amanda
ACT English Tutor • +87 Subjects
I'm currently a fourth year medical student at a private medical school in Texas. I've been involved with tutoring since middle school continuing all the way through medical school. There are so many different ways to teach based on how students learn best and I am passionate about meeting the individual needs of students so they can succeed. I took unconventional approaches to learning as instilled by mentors throughout my life that greatly increased my ability to learn and comprehend material . I've worked with tutoring students in ACT prep, SAT prep, MCAT prep, IB and AP courses, as well as STEM subjects from elementary school through to college. Recently, I've also tutored for USMLE Step 1 & 2. I also edit and work with students who need tutors for writing and reading comprehension. I have extensive experience in both college and medical school admissions and work yearly with students on essays and applications. I went to high school at the Downingtown STEM Academy and graduated May 2018 from the University of Alabama with a 4.2. I have a BS in Biology with minors in Social Work and Social Welfare. I will be graduating with an MD and MPH in May 2022. I tutor english, math, geometry, algebra, SAT, ACT, MCAT, USMLE chemistry, biology, organic chemistry, and writing along with other subjects. I've worked with rural students in Alabama, students in the Greater Philadelphia area, and students in urban areas. I believe education should be personalized and while schools can't provide this due to lack of resources, tutors are a great substitute for that. Education is the gateway to social mobility and happiness and I seek to prepare my student to meet their individual goals. I work to create an environment where the student can focus on understanding the material for their own understanding and not for others which significantly increases the students confidence in the subject matter and their desire to learn more.

Eric
Ethics Tutor • +3 Subjects
I believe that, aside from empathy, education is the single most important key to solving our world's problems as well as furthering our longevity as a species!I am a lifelong learner and lover of all things academic. I obtained my B.S. in Professional Aeronautics with a business minor from ERAU, while working multiple jobs and starting a family. As I continued my academic and professional journey as a leader in the aviation industry, I fell in love with leadership philosophies and earned a Master's in Leadership Development from St. Mary-of-the-Woods College, the same college where I am now a professor. At "The Woods", I teach my passions, such as leadership, moral philosophy (ethics), not-for-profit strategy, and many more subjects. I mentor graduate students throughout their coursework and final theses.As I grew older, I began to model my continuing education efforts toward my interests and passions, such as psychology, and less to just support a business career. This led me to a Ph.D. in I/O Psychology at NCU, where I am currently a Ph.D. candidate preparing for my final dissertation defense titled "A Case Study about DACA, Psychological Health and Subjective Well-being in the current U.S. Socio-Political Climate."All of this, all of my hard work, has led me to you. I love to teach, mentor, and tutor students. Your success is my success. I feel that my purpose on this earth is to share knowledge and help others, just like you, become the best human being possible.
Nicole
ACT Prep Tutor • +16 Subjects
I am a sophomore at Villanova University pursuing a Bachelor of Sciences in Biology. I've been tutoring now for a total of five years starting in high school and continuing through college. In high school, I participated in an ENL program (English as a New Language) which sparked my love for tutoring. I went to an elementary school and help students (Grades K-6) with their homework in reading, math science, etc. I became close with many of the children and watched them grow as students and as people throughout my four years of being there. I wanted to continue tutoring in college which lead me to join a club at Villanova called RUIBAL. Through RUIBAL I was able to again help younger children with their homework, specifically with their reading. Through zoom, I would sit and read with the students, helping them with big words and understanding the story's main idea. While I can tutor in many subjects, I am drawn to the subjects of English (specifically reading comprehension)and Science and helping with test prep. I have also recently become EMT certified so I have fresh knowledge of the subject and how to pass the exam. Education is a major part of my life however, in my spare time I also enjoy traveling (especially to National Parks), skiing, and volleyball.
Samuel
ACT Prep Tutor • +28 Subjects
I achieved my undergraduate degree in mathematics from the University of Connecticut. Soon afterward, I left the US to teach mathematics, physics, and science to island peoples on remote islands in the Pacific Ocean area known as Micronesia. From there, I travelled to Africa and taught mathematics of all levels, grades 6 to 12, under the British international curriculum at an international school in central Tanzania. I then shifted back the US to teach at a high school in Massachusetts near to where I grew up, while completing my master's degree in mathematics at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. My latest, and perhaps my last, international adventure has been the last few years living in the capital of Ethiopia, teaching the International Baccalaureate curriculum at an international school in Addis Ababa. Between my teaching, I tutor students of all levels, most often in preparation for standardized tests, like the IGCSE, A-levels, SATs, and the IB, among others. When I was not involving myself in education, I was DJing at festivals and events in and around the towns or cities where I was residing at the time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who specialize in preparing for a wide range of professional certifications, including IT certifications (CompTIA, Cisco, Microsoft), project management (PMP, CAPM), finance and accounting (CPA, CFA), healthcare credentials (NCLEX, pharmacy technician), and many others. Tutors can work with you on exam-specific content, test-taking strategies, and practice problems tailored to your certification's format and requirements.
One-on-one instruction allows tutors to identify exactly where you're struggling and adapt their teaching to fill those gaps, rather than having you spend time on concepts you already understand. Personalized tutoring also provides accountability, structured study plans, and the ability to ask questions immediately when you're confused. Research on learning shows that individualized instruction significantly accelerates progress compared to self-study alone.
Preparation timelines vary widely depending on your starting knowledge, the specific certification, and how frequently you meet with your tutor. Some certifications require 2-3 months of focused study, while others may take 6+ months. Your tutor can assess your baseline knowledge and create a realistic timeline with specific milestones, helping you stay on track to meet your certification deadline.
Yes. Tutors work with students at all knowledge levels, from those brand-new to a field to those with substantial experience. If you're making a career transition, your tutor can start with foundational concepts and progressively build your knowledge toward certification-level competency. This scaffolded approach helps you develop both the conceptual understanding and practical skills needed to succeed on your exam and in your new role.
Effective strategies include breaking complex topics into smaller, manageable pieces; using practice exams repeatedly to identify weak areas; and spacing out your study sessions over time rather than cramming. A tutor helps by explaining difficult technical concepts in ways that stick, creating focused practice plans, and providing feedback on your progress. This combination of targeted instruction and strategic practice leads to stronger retention and better exam performance.
Your tutor can help you assess readiness through practice exams, diagnostic reviews, and honest conversations about your confidence level. Most certification exams have published study guides and pass rates you can reference. A good benchmark is consistently scoring at or above the passing threshold on full-length practice tests under exam conditions. Your tutor can also help you decide if you need more preparation time or if you're ready to schedule your exam.
Varsity Tutors works with tutors across many industries and certification types. If you're preparing for a specialized certification, reach out with details about the exam and field—tutors often have expertise in niche areas, and we may be able to connect you with someone who's a great fit. Even if a direct specialist isn't available, tutors skilled in related subjects can often help you master the material and exam strategies.
