Jeffrey

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Frequently Asked Questions

Vestavia Hills has 10 schools across the community, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends an elementary, middle, or high school in the area, we can match them with a tutor who understands the specific curriculum and expectations they're working with.

With over 7,400 students across Vestavia Hills schools, we see consistent demand for support in math, English/language arts, and standardized test preparation—particularly as students progress through middle and high school. Many families also seek help with science and foreign language courses, especially when students are aiming for advanced placement or college readiness.

While Vestavia Hills maintains a 16.6:1 student-teacher ratio, classroom instruction still can't address every student's individual learning pace or gaps. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring fills that gap by giving your student focused attention on their specific challenges, whether that's catching up on foundational skills or accelerating ahead in a subject they love.

Tutors connected through Varsity Tutors are familiar with Alabama's standards and curriculum frameworks, so they can help students master the specific skills and content required for success in their grade level and courses. This is especially valuable for students preparing for Alabama's standardized assessments or working toward college and career readiness benchmarks.

The first session is focused on getting to know your student—their learning style, current challenges, goals, and what's working or not working in their classes. The tutor will assess where your student stands and develop a personalized plan tailored to their needs, so every session afterward builds on that foundation.

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors experienced in SAT, ACT, AP exam, and other standardized test preparation. For Vestavia Hills students aiming for college, personalized test prep can make a significant difference—tutors work at your student's pace to build test-taking strategies and strengthen content knowledge in areas where they need it most.

Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's needs. We work with families to find solutions that fit their budget, and many families find that personalized instruction prevents the need for more intensive (and costly) interventions down the road. Contact us to discuss pricing and what would work best for your situation.

Absolutely. Many Vestavia Hills students benefit from tutoring when they've fallen behind or are struggling to keep up with classroom pace. A personalized tutor can identify exactly where the gaps are, reteach concepts your student missed, and rebuild confidence—all without the pressure of a full classroom environment.
