Sherrie
Comparative Literature Tutor • +22 Subjects
I taught public school 6th, 7th, and 8th graders for 10 years and loved it! The students I worked with were unique in that they had realized many areas where they excelled, but they really needed someone who could motivate them and boost their confidence in their weaker areas. I have currently taught kindergarten for the past 14 years, and I also love this group of learners! Going through the process of teaching them to read is a passion of mine, and seeing that look on their face when they get it, they know they are "READERS!"; it's priceless! My own daughter struggles with dyslexia, so working with her has given me lots of insight into the patience and different teaching approaches I need to use to help each individual student reach their goals. I am very patient and work with each child to learn their strengths and then work with those strengths to help them succeed.

Allison
Analytical Chemistry Tutor • +5 Subjects
Hi, my name is Allison, and I am a fifth year Ph. D. candidate in the chemistry department at the University of Florida. I have worked with high school and college level chemistry students, and I am willing to meet you where you are at in chemistry. If you are willing to work to learn it, I will match that effort to help you learn it. When I work with students I prefer to work in smaller groups, so that I can better address your specific concerns and areas where you want help. After having been a TA for three years and tutoring for five, I have learned that there are many ways to present a concept, and some ways of explaining things make more sense than others to some people. I am flexible with how I present information and will work to do it in a way that maximizes your ability to understand the material. I have also gained a series of tips and tricks that help to keep easily confused information straight. As a tutor I want it to be enjoyable, but I want you to learn also, so I typically have a focused but relaxed tutoring environment.
Christa
ACT Writing Tutor • +15 Subjects
I have always had a passion for working with young people. I worked for the Baton Rouge Youth Coalition throughout my entire college career helping students in math. One of my greatest joys was seeing my students improve academically and celebrating with them as they gained admission to the colleges of their dreams. My involvement with the young people at BRYC as a teacher, mentor, and friend over the years has been some of the most meaningful work I have been involved in and I would love to continue that work with students in Houston.I had the opportunity to teach a section of Honors 1000 undergraduate students which made me more sensitive to the needs of college students academically and socially and my first job out of college involved working with young people at the Posse Foundation as a Trainer. In that role I served as a mentor, counselor, tutor, college advisor, and friend. I developed and strengthened many of my skills at that time including my skills at facilitating workshops and developing lesson plans, my verbal, written, and public speaking communication skills, time management, and my ability to organize and prioritize tasks in a dynamic working environment with people from diverse backgrounds.I believe that my skill set and experience working with young people would be particularly helpful in working as a Varsity Tutor and I am hopeful that I will be able to share my knowledge with you. Thank you!

Becky
ACT English Tutor • +12 Subjects
I am a recent graduate from Siena College and I am now currently living in New Jersey for the summer. At Siena, I was a biology major and a religious studies minor. I also wrote a senior thesis that was primarily focused on social psychology. In the fall, I will be starting law school at Notre Dame Law School, and will hopefully attain my J.D in the next few years. Aside from my academic interests, I also enjoy traveling and photography, as well as learning about other cultures. I also enjoy finding cool coffee shops, going on hikes, and practicing yoga.In the past, I have tutored students through Kumon Education Company. I have also been a teaching assistant for a scientific writing class, as well as tutored peers throughout my undergrad. I also was given the opportunity to teach English in Bolivia last summer. My favorite subjects to tutor are Math and English, because I think both subjects can be mastered through practice, and don't necessarily require memorization. I believe that in order for someone to master a subject, he or she must practice the methods necessary to do so, and be able to solve the problems individually.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. With 18 school districts and 135 schools across Glendale, students come from diverse educational backgrounds and curricula. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who understand the specific standards, pacing, and expectations of Glendale's various districts—whether you're in Litchfield Elementary, Peoria Unified, or another local district.
Glendale's average student-teacher ratio of 18.2:1 means classroom teachers often have limited time for individual attention. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction fills that gap by giving your student focused support tailored to their specific learning pace and challenges—something that's difficult to provide in a larger classroom setting.
Tutors work with students on Arizona's state standards for reading, math, science, and other core subjects. Whether your student is preparing for state assessments, working toward grade-level proficiency, or advancing ahead, tutors align their instruction with Arizona's learning expectations to help students succeed.
The first session focuses on understanding your student's specific needs, learning style, and academic goals. The tutor will assess current skill levels, identify areas where your student needs support, and discuss what success looks like—whether that's improving a grade, building confidence, or mastering a particular skill.
Glendale students frequently seek support in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and test preparation for state assessments and standardized tests. Science and foreign language support are also popular as students work toward graduation requirements and college readiness.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. Varsity Tutors offers flexible scheduling and package options to fit different budgets and needs. Contact us to discuss your student's specific needs and get a personalized quote for tutoring in Glendale.
Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have expertise in your student's subject and grade level, plus familiarity with Glendale's schools and Arizona standards. The matching process considers your student's learning style, schedule, and specific academic goals to find the right fit.
Many students show noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though results depend on the subject, starting point, and frequency of sessions. Regular 1-on-1 instruction helps students build confidence and mastery, which typically translates to better grades and test performance over time.
