Troy

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +57 Subjects

I am an Arizona native. Upon graduating from Desert Mountain High School, I attended Rice University and I received my Bachelor of Arts in Kinesiology with a business focus. At Rice I was a student/athlete representing the Division I Owls in track and field. After several years experience voluntarily tutoring friends and family members I became a professional private tutor my junior year of college. My senior year, I took advantage of the opportunity to reach more students, creating a small private tutoring company in Houston in which I served as lead tutor and conducted all business operations.

I'm a rising senior at Yale University. My two main passions in life are biology and English--people might see them as completely opposite subjects, but I think they're just two sides of the same coin! As a tutor, I believe that flexibility and personalization are key. Above all, my goal is to help people not just do well in their assignments but also truly understand the material. I look forward to working with you!

Aaron

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +25 Subjects

I'm fairly new to formal tutoring but I've been helping my five children with their homework for the last 18 years. I consider math and science my favorite subjects, with physics being one of my most favorite. When I'm coaching a student, I believe in a very tailored approach which encourages and strengthens the knowledge and skills that a student has and then adds the information that is needed to succeed. Rote memorization is not my strong suit, I believe in really understanding the underlying organizing principles. In my other job I design houses, and when I'm not doing that I love to read, and hike and do some woodworking now and then.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Buckeye's 42 schools and all 6 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Buckeye Valley Unified District, Avondale Elementary, Litchfield Elementary, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their school's curriculum and academic expectations.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 20.6:1 in Buckeye schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. A tutor can provide the individualized attention and customized pacing that's difficult in larger classroom settings, helping your student master concepts more deeply and build confidence in their abilities.

Tutors work with students on Arizona's specific standards and benchmarks across math, English language arts, science, and social studies. They're familiar with what Arizona assessments expect and can help students develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills emphasized in state standards, whether your student is preparing for end-of-year assessments or building foundational skills.

During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, learning style, and specific challenges in their subject area. They'll discuss your goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building long-term skills—and create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and Buckeye's curriculum requirements.

Students in Buckeye typically seek tutoring in math (especially algebra and geometry), English language arts (reading comprehension and writing), science, and test preparation for standardized assessments. We also support students in Spanish, history, and other subjects—tutors can help with any academic area where your student needs extra support.

Absolutely. Personalized tutoring is especially effective for students who are struggling because a tutor can identify exactly where learning gaps started and address them at the right pace. Rather than moving forward with incomplete understanding, your student gets targeted help to catch up, build confidence, and stay on track with their grade-level curriculum.

Yes, tutoring isn't just for students who are struggling—many advanced students in Buckeye use tutors to deepen their understanding, prepare for advanced placement courses, or explore topics beyond their regular classroom. A tutor can provide enrichment, challenge your student appropriately, and help them prepare for competitive academic opportunities.

Simply tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match them with a tutor who's a good fit, and you can schedule your first session at a time that works for your family. Most families see their student connect with a tutor within a few days of reaching out.
