College English Tutor • +9 Subjects

I recently graduated from the University at Albany with a Bachelor of Arts in English and a minor in Communications. I will apply the skills and knowledge I learned there in my role as your tutor. In addition to my formal education, I spent a year working as a teacher's assistant at The Bronx Community College for the FYS program. I also volunteered at MASA in New York City, where I tutored children between the ages of six to thirteen on a wide range of subjects. In my other job roles, I've done mainly Customer Service related positions. This experience has allowed me to interact with and support children and adults with a range of abilities in their lessons and activities. During this time, I also learned different teaching styles that work best with different types of learners and just different interactive styles in general. As an enthusiastic tutor, I am dedicated to enabling that young minds grow and achieve as well as that mature minds will expand. I am confident my experience and teaching style will make all the difference in your educational journey.

Dr. Réagan

Anthropology Tutor • +78 Subjects

I am an adjunct instructor/professor of business, marketing, and management with 27 years of college and university teaching experience. Furthermore, I have taught in other countries such as Russia, and I go back and forth to France, which is my origin. Subsequently, I hold four Masters degrees which include an MBA in Management from Long Island University, Masters of Liberal Studies with a concentration in History and Political Science from StonyBrook University, an EdM in Education Administration from Columbia University, and an MLS in Library Science from St John's University. I completed my PhD in Management at Walden University.For the past 16 years, I have been a private tutor in the following subject areas; English, Writing, French, Basic Italian, History, Psychology, Social sciences, and Bible Studies. Furthermore, I am ESL certified from the Language School in Montpellier, France, where I obtained a certification in TOEFL and TOESL. I am experienced in APA format scholarly writing and can assist in all levels of written expression.It is difficult to say what my favorite subject is because I love tutoring and teaching them all, as I truly enjoy helping and mentoring students. If I had to say what my favorite subjects are, I would say the business area because of my teaching experience, the languages, and the writing areas. However, I truly enjoy all the subjects especially ethics and social sciences and hard sciences.Teaching and Tutoring PhilosophyIn my 27 years of teaching experience on the college and university level, and 10 years of tutoring experience, I have developed my own teaching and tutoring philosophy. From these experiences, I have learned that people have diverse learning styles. For example, some of my students are visual learners, and others are auditory learners as well as kinesthetic learners. Therefore, I have taken on a similar philosophy to Howard Gardner who believed there are many different kinds of intelligences and students have different ways they learn best. Hence, I employ many different learning modalities in my teaching including lecture, presentation, question and answer, group work, brainstorming, visual aids, and role-playing simulations. For tutoring, I use visual and auditory, based on the materials that the student provides. I try to use diverse learning methods that are tailored to each student. My philosophy is that all people can learn given the proper supports and tools. Learning curves vary in length but everyone can achieve and succeed with the proper supports. In addition, I believe that critical thinking and high order cognitive learning is crucial to success in higher education and careers. It is important for students to learn how to compare, contrast, apply, analyze, synthesize, evaluate, and implement. Critical thinking is excellent training in executive decision making and judgment which is crucial for students entering the work place or advancing their careers. I have a strong passion for teaching and it gives me great satisfaction when I see students grow in their knowledge and critical thinking as a result of what I can impart upon them.My interests outside academia include going out with friends, dancing, karaoke, general and space science, sports (hockey, American football, basketball, etc), technology, statistics, music, traveling, French culture, experiencing multicultural diversity, and classic cars.In closing, I think it is important for a tutor to be a knowledgeable teacher, a role model, a mentor, as well as patient and open-minded to all cultures and learning abilities, and styles. My goal is to fulfill that role which is who i admire li Manning who is my role model.

Biology Tutor • +47 Subjects

Look, learning can be toughbut it's rewarding in the end, and done right, it can be a lot of fun. My goal is to help students learn and succeed, but also to help them have a good time while doing it.Part of what I love most about being a journalist is breaking things down and making them understandable to the massesbasically, teaching people new things. If they don't comprehend and retain that knowledge, I haven't succeeded in my job, just like a tutor. I've been informally tutoring people for years, whether it's helping children study for classes while babysitting in high school and college or helping classmates learn and prepare for school all the way back to my elementary school days. In one form or another, I've been helping people learn almost as long as I remember.A great tutor needs to be intelligent, with a comprehensive, intuitive understanding of the subject matter. It's not enough to just know the answers to questions; a tutor needs to understand why the answers are what they are. A great tutor needs to be compassionate, patient, understanding, and kind, to help create a safe, creative and comfortable environment for the student to learn. And a great tutor needs to be empathetic, to be able to put him/herself in the student's shoes and understand why he or she might be having trouble.

I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas, working toward a degree in biochemistry with a minor in biology. I have one year of experience tutoring college students in biology and chemistry in a walk-in tutoring center called the AARC. I have also coached an inner-city youth soccer team, so I have experience with teaching younger kids in a sometimes challenging setting. My personal teaching philosophy includes helping students develop skills that they can use in their future academic endeavors, as well as assisting them with the class they're currently struggling in.

English Tutor • +10 Subjects

Ever since I was in elementary school, I have found passion and joy in the subject English. As a current Secondary English Education major, that passion has not wavered over the years! Having observed high school classes and assisted students in different areas, I found that I also enjoy spreading my knowledge on the subject whenever possible. To me, it is important that students feel competent and secure no matter what the assignment might be.I attained my general studies associates degree a week before I graduated with my high school diploma, accomplished through dual credit courses and dedication. I am expected to graduate from Indiana University in the spring of 2023. After that, I will begin my journey in the field as a professional english teacher!As a tutor, I value communication and dedication. It's my hope that everyone can feel comfortable and excited about every aspect of their academic career.

Lindsey

Arithmetic Tutor • +28 Subjects

I enjoy working with students because I believe that everyone has the ability to succeed academically, given the right tools. Many subjects, such as math, are often difficult for students to grasp at first, making the prospect of learning intimidating. However, given the right amount of hard work together and patients, I believe that there is not any difficult subject that cannot be surmounted. The most rewarding aspect of teaching is helping a student reach an "ah ha!" moment in a subject they previously thought impossible to comprehend.In my experience teaching psychology and statistics courses, I have had the opportunity to help many students reach their "ah ha" moment. I have taught psychology, research methods, and statistics courses at the University of New Hampshire and Granite State College. I received my B.A. in psychology from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. I received an M.A. in psychology from Southern Connecticut State University and an M.A. in psychology from the University of New Hampshire. I have also received a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of New Hampshire.I tutor subjects including math, statistics, psychology, psychology GRE subject test prep, and writing. My favorite subject to tutor is statistics because I find that it can be a bridge between math processes and real world context, lending a useful platform for math wary individuals to learn about mathematical concepts. Outside of my academic interests, I like to cycle, travel, and cook in my spare time. I like to be outdoors and I enjoy many outdoor activities such as skiing/snowboarding, swimming, and going to the beach.

Lisa

Arithmetic Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Hope International University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Human Development with a focus on counseling and biblical studies. I am applying for Graduate School this summer, so I can further my education in Psychology and Cultural Anthropology. My passion is listening to and working with children; and, I hope to become the kind of therapist that families, including our soldiers and veterans, will come to when they need help. While I have been working on my education, I have spent the last several years as a para-educator teaching children of immigrants in California for the "No Child Left Behind" program at an elementary school. I also edit and tutor writing composition for individual clients in middle school and high school using APA and MLA formats, focusing on good research methods, proper citing, and correct bibliography and reference pages. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Math, and test prep. I've always felt a great joy when my students experience their "aha" moment. They have just received something that belongs to them for the rest of their lives - knowledge. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be the key to a high quality of life; and, I try to impart this appreciation to my students by being a good role model, since I am also a student. I teach good work ethics, responsibility, and accountability so my students will not only gain an education, they will be productive and dependable adults one day. I love spending time with my teenager, swimming, drawing, volunteering for Feed The Children and Save Our Beaches. One of our goals is to create the best mac 'n cheese "known to man."

Abrahim

Abstract Algebra Tutor • +80 Subjects

I am passionate about teaching because I understand greatly a lot of the academic struggles and problems students may face through education, especially as a first generation college student. Currently I am studying for my medical doctorate degree (M.D.) at the Medical College of Wisconsin. I graduated UCLA with a Biology degree with Asian Languages minor in 2019, cum laude honors. Both during my undergrad and days since, I had a chance to tutor private clients in Southern California and work for a few exam prep companies. I enjoy tutoring math, sciences (chemistry, biology mainly), social sciences (history, politics), essay writing, and Japanese. I also help assist in studying for standardized exams (SAT, ACT, SAT Subject, AP, MCAT, PCAT, OAT)! My tutoring style will be very direct in trying to identify gaps in knowledge and working/practicing on those gaps. I like to be interactive and answer the students' questions directly. I strongly believe education is one path in which students may be able to reach their dreams and I will be your supporter along the way. In my free time, I enjoy playing the piano, practicing martial arts, and watching anime/playing games.

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects students across San Antonio's 42 school districts and 624 schools with personalized tutoring support. With over 333,000 students in the San Antonio area, we work with families from SAISD, North East ISD, Northside ISD, and other districts throughout the region to provide customized instruction that fits each student's unique needs.

Texas has specific learning standards across math, reading, science, and social studies that students must master at each grade level. Tutors work with San Antonio students to strengthen foundational skills, build confidence in tested subjects, and develop the critical thinking strategies needed to succeed on STAAR assessments and in the classroom. Personalized instruction allows tutors to focus on the exact areas where each student needs support.

San Antonio students frequently seek support in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, and science—subjects that are heavily tested under Texas standards. Many students also benefit from tutoring in English language arts to strengthen writing skills, and in test preparation for STAAR, SAT, and ACT exams. Tutors can also help with Spanish language instruction, a valuable skill in San Antonio's diverse community.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 14.5:1 across San Antonio's school districts, classroom teachers often have limited time for individualized attention. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring fills that gap by providing dedicated support focused entirely on a student's learning style, pace, and specific challenges—something that's difficult to achieve in a traditional classroom setting.

The first session is designed to build rapport and understand your student's goals, strengths, and areas for improvement. A tutor will assess your student's current knowledge in the subject, discuss what they're working on in school, and create a personalized plan for how tutoring can best support their learning. This foundation helps tutors tailor instruction to match your student's needs from day one.

Yes. While many San Antonio families connect with tutors for math, reading, and science support, tutors also help with subjects like social studies, foreign languages (including Spanish), test preparation, writing skills, and even study strategies. Whatever subject your student is taking in school, Varsity Tutors can help match them with a tutor who has expertise in that area.

San Antonio's 42 school districts each have their own curriculum frameworks and pacing guides, which is why personalized tutoring is so valuable. Tutors work with students from SAISD, North East ISD, Northside ISD, and other districts throughout the area and understand how to support students within their specific district's approach to learning. When you connect with a tutor, you can share details about your student's school and curriculum so instruction aligns perfectly.

Yes. Many San Antonio families use summer tutoring to help students maintain skills over the break, get ahead before the new school year, or catch up on concepts that were challenging during the year. Summer is also a great time for test prep (STAAR, SAT, ACT) or to build confidence in a subject before advancing to the next level. Tutors can work with your schedule to provide flexible support during the summer months.
