Receive personally tailored Neuroscience lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with the best tutor for your particular needs while offering flexible scheduling to fit your busy life.
Varsity Tutors is a tremendous educational resource capable of finding you a qualified neuroscience tutor in as little as 24 hours. We maintain an extensive database of well-vetted instructors, allowing our trained Educational Directors to leverage advanced tutor-matching tools to find you an instructor who suits your academic and scheduling needs.
Here are some of the attributes we look for during our vetting process:
Neuroscience is the study of the brain, one of the most complicated organs in the human body. If just looking at your course syllabus is enough to give you a headache, your neuroscience tutor can break it down into more digestible components to make it feel a little easier.
Software-based academic support is generally fine, but a private tutor can create a study plan for your unique areas of opportunity and goals. If you already understand electrical signaling, your neuroscience tutor can concentrate on other content areas to keep your study sessions as engaging as possible.
If you're having a tougher time with what conditions like addiction and depression do to the brain, your instructor can provide fresh explanations and examples until you're ready to move on. In contrast, a computer has no way of adapting its programming to accommodate any individual's needs.
The price of one-on-one neuroscience tutoring depends on several variables, including how often you meet your instructor and the specific concepts you'd like to review. For instance, you may pay a different hourly rate to review cellular mechanisms of neural plasticity than you would for a brief overview of how researchers study the human brain.
If you're looking for a more affordable option, we can facilitate group tutoring so that you can split the cost of your instructor. Varsity Tutors also provides a live neuroscience class that can stand alone or act as a supplement to private instruction. Contact us directly for more specific pricing information in your area.
Your online neuroscience tutoring sessions will take place on our Live Learning Platform: a virtual study space equipped with a plethora of powerful features to facilitate the same type of hands-on instruction you could receive in person. For example, your instructor can use our platform's virtual whiteboard to make it easier for you to take notes on sensorimotor control systems or another topic, while a shared document editor allows you to collaborate on written research assignments.
Our platform also records every study session automatically for future reference. If you want to work with a tutor without planning your entire week around it, online tutoring could be the right solution for you.
Independent research suggests that working with a private tutor can help students raise their test scores up to 35 percent higher than relying on software-based alternatives, indicating that a personal touch adds value. Furthermore, studies suggest that high-achievers are just as likely to benefit from private tutoring as their peers.
