Karishma
Calculus Tutor • +32 Subjects
I am very dedicated to helping students excel in school and in helping them develop study methods and styles that work best for them and that will serve them throughout school. I previously tutored with Boys Hope Girls Hope in Evanston, IL. I tutored middle and high school students in Spanish and English, and I was able to help them develop study strategies such as using flashcards or translating a sentence they had spoken aloud that day in their heads for extra language practice. I am very excited to be able to tutor again and to work with students. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a previously struggling student excel and to have helped them improve along the way. Hobbies: reading, music, running, art, books, dancing, writing
Rebecca
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects
I am a graduate of Northwestern University where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Religious Studies. I am currently pursuing a masters degree in social work at the University of Chicago's School of Social Service Administration. I am passionate about tutoring because I want everyone to be able to perform academically at their highest possible level. I also think it is important that learning is not just for one assignment or one test, but rather that it sticks with you to build a solid foundation of knowledge and confidence that you can carry forward. My favorite subjects to tutor include English, SAT test preparation, math, and psychology. My approach to tutoring is to meet the student where they're at and go from there. I find that this way we can build a productive tutoring relationship where I can help individualize learning to each person's particular learning style. Outside of academic interests, I enjoy cooking, being with friends and family, traveling the world, and looking as ridiculous as possible doing Zumba.

I am eager to help students wrestle with and master concepts in their math and physics classes. I have extensive experience tutoring students in both math and physics at the high school and college level in one on one and larger group settings. During my PhD I was awarded a teaching fellowship which allowed me to continue teaching while I continued to perform research and carry out my dissertation work.

I am a current law student at Washington University in St. Louis and also graduated summa cum laude from their undergraduate program in 2014. I have dual citizenship with the US and Chile, and my hispanic roots have always been very important to me. I grew up speaking Spanish but have also dedicated a significant portion of my academic studies to Spanish language and literature as well. I am passionate about helping others reach their goals and take pride in helping make the Spanish language and various Spanish-speaking cultures more accessible to anyone willing to learn.

I graduated from the University of Chicago in 2016 with a B.A. in English and Theatre. I then got my M.S.Ed from Northwestern. I have worked with children of all ages in various capacities, including teaching, and I find that the best way for students to learn is to have fun and engage them.

Rashida

I am a self-motivated, results-driven educator who enjoys teaching/tutoring students of all stages and from diverse backgrounds. I have a doctorate in Biological Sciences from the University of Illinois, Chicago and over 5 years' experience teaching college level biology courses in classroom (as a teaching assistant) and in private tutoring settings. In my teaching/tutoring roles, I plan and lead discussion sections in Mendelian and Molecular Genetics, Biochemistry, and Cell Biology. I create worksheets and practice questions to help student prepare for exams. I also guide students to understand and master course concepts in the above-mentioned courses as well as in research methods, and dissertation writing . I have helped improve students' grades, self-confidence and study skills, in part through motivating students and practicing constructivist teaching/learning approaches.

Elena
Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a second year law student at the University of Chicago who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area! I tutor the SAT, ESL, and Spanish. I was an AVID tutor in high school, and after college I taught an ESL class and tutored a high school student in Spanish. In law school, I am involved with the Lawyers in the Classroom program. My tutoring philosophy is based on listening to students work through problems and helping them to spot their confusions or incorrect assumptions. I believe students learn much better when they aren't simply told the right answer or right reasoning; they need to get there on their own.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Westmont's 8 schools and both school districts with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in Community Unit School District 200 or Indian Prairie School District 204, tutors can support them with subject-specific help tailored to their school's curriculum and pacing.
Westmont schools maintain a 12.3:1 student-teacher ratio, which is solid, but even in well-staffed classrooms, teachers must divide attention across many students. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring allows tutors to focus entirely on your student's learning style, pace, and specific gaps—research shows this individualized attention significantly accelerates progress compared to group instruction.
Westmont students most frequently seek tutoring in math (especially algebra and geometry transitions), reading comprehension, and test prep for standardized assessments. As students progress through Illinois' rigorous curriculum standards, many also benefit from support in science and writing—areas where personalized feedback makes a real difference in building confidence and mastery.
Tutors are familiar with Illinois State Standards and work with your student to address specific skills outlined in their grade level's curriculum. Whether it's building foundational literacy in elementary grades or tackling complex problem-solving in middle school math, personalized instruction ensures students aren't just keeping pace—they're building deep understanding of the concepts their schools emphasize.
The first session is a chance for the tutor and student to get to know each other and identify specific learning goals. Tutors will assess your student's current level, understand any challenges they're facing in their Westmont classroom, and create a personalized plan that aligns with their school's curriculum and your family's expectations.
Varsity Tutors offers flexible scheduling to fit your family's needs—whether your student needs help during the school week, on weekends, or during school breaks. You can adjust frequency and timing based on your student's workload and your family's schedule, making it easy to provide support without adding stress to an already busy routine.
Tutors provide regular feedback on your student's progress, including improvements in specific skills, test scores, and classroom performance. You'll see concrete results in areas like homework completion, quiz grades, and confidence—and many parents notice their student developing a more positive attitude toward learning within the first few weeks of personalized instruction.
Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have strong subject expertise and experience working with students at various levels. All tutors are vetted and trained to deliver personalized instruction, and many have teaching backgrounds or deep knowledge in their subject areas—ensuring your Westmont student gets quality support from someone who truly knows their material.
