I believe anyone can do well in school. I believe timelines aren't for everyone, but I believe that progress should be judged as a function of effort, a function whose derivative is always positive :)

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.
Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Sharon
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Jonesboro's 38 schools and 4 school districts with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Jonesboro School District, Nettleton, Westside, or other local districts, we can match them with tutors who understand Arkansas academic standards and local curriculum expectations.
While Jonesboro's average student-teacher ratio is 15.3:1, personalized 1-on-1 instruction gives your student undivided attention tailored to their specific learning style and pace. This focused approach helps address gaps and build confidence in ways that aren't always possible in a traditional classroom setting, allowing tutors to adjust explanations and practice in real time based on your student's needs.
Tutors working with Jonesboro students are familiar with Arkansas Department of Education standards and benchmarks across grade levels and subjects. They can target specific skills your student needs to master—whether that's reading comprehension, math fluency, science concepts, or test preparation—and build a learning plan that aligns with what's expected in Arkansas classrooms.
We work with Jonesboro students across all core subjects, but math and reading comprehension are among the most requested areas, particularly as students transition between grade levels. We also support students preparing for standardized tests like the ACT, as well as those needing help with science, writing, and subject-specific courses like algebra, geometry, and chemistry.
The first session is focused on getting to know your student—understanding their strengths, challenges, learning style, and specific goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically, ask about what's working and what isn't in their current classes, and work together to create a personalized plan for moving forward. This foundation helps ensure every session that follows is targeted and effective.
Absolutely. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who can work around your family's schedule—whether that means sessions after school, on weekends, or during the week. We understand that Jonesboro families juggle sports, activities, and other commitments, so we work to find tutoring times that actually work for you.
When you connect with Varsity Tutors, we match your student with a tutor based on their specific needs, subject, and learning style. You can discuss your student's personality, what motivates them, and any teaching approaches that have worked well in the past. This personalized matching process helps ensure your student works with someone who understands their goals and can communicate in a way that clicks with them.
Progress looks different for each student—it might mean improved test scores, stronger grades on assignments, increased confidence in class participation, or a better understanding of challenging concepts. Tutors regularly check in with families about what they're seeing, and you'll notice changes in your student's attitude toward schoolwork and their willingness to tackle harder problems. Most families start seeing meaningful progress within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring.
