Amanda
PhD Yale University • MS Yale University
2+ Years Tutoring

I recently finished my PhD from Yale University, where I studied Developmental and Cognitive Psychology. Specifically, I have designed experiments to research how adults and children learn about complicated things like combustion engines, how lightning bugs light up, etc. I have years of experience teaching and tutoring undergraduate college students in 1-on-1 sessions and in classrooms as large as 500+ students. Outside of the classroom or the lab, however, I also spend time teaching through coaching. In my role as an assistant coach for the Yale Softball team I have coached student-athletes to be their best on and off the field, helping them to balance and achieve their individual goals. I am excited to be able to continue to teach here with Varsity Tutors!

Valerie
BA University of Chicago
1+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate student at the University of Chicago majoring in Classics and Theatre. However, my college uses the core curriculum and as a result, I've had a well-rounded, eclectic education covering everything from math to fine arts. I've won awards in community service, dance, and film, but most notably, 20 writing prizes before I reached eighteen. I was a National Merit Semi-Finalist in high school and I've had a passion for education and the art of learning since I was a child. I hope to instill in my students the love of amassing knowledge, excelling in your studies, and walking out of a test feeling like you rocked it. I especially had a passion for the Critical Reading and the Writing portions of the SAT's and the SAT 2 in Literature. I have teaching experience with everything from stand-up comedy to Emergency Medical Services to tap dancing, and I've been told that I am unmatched in my enthusiasm. In my free time, I like to perform sketch and improv comedy, dance, play the banjo, and volunteer in my local hospital.

Xaviera
BA The University of Alabama • Juris Doctor, Legal Studies Yale University
7+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent graduate from the University of Alabama who will be starting at Yale Law School in the fall of 2019. I double majored in International Studies and French with a minor in African American Studies. During my time at UA, I participated in mentoring programs that allowed me to work with elementary school children, in addition, to being a coach for children aged 2-18 years old. I entirely self-studied for the LSAT and scored in the top 1 percentile, so I am well prepared for helping students achieve their law school goals.

Maxwell
BA Yale University
4+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate student at Yale University. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology along with a certificate of advanced language in Spanish. I currently do research studying changes in stem cells and gene expression during different planarian physiological processes. I am extremely interested in biochemical and biophysical processes, closely tied to my interest in STEM courses and education. I have the most experience tutoring math, science, and Spanish, using my personal and current education with feedback from previous students to refine my approach. In high school I started a student success center during covid to provide free online tutoring, providing tutors in all subjects during set hours of the week. I work hard to create a comfortable environment to reduce the stresses and pressures of tutoring, not only allowing me to enhance my student's education but do so in a way that is most suited to their learning styles. I have gone through the college application process recently and would love to share my knowledge of standardized testing (study tips, general questions, and subject-specific tutoring), college preparation, and the application process. Outside of the classroom, I dance for Sabrosura (Yale's Premier Latin Dance team), explore what borders campus on walks and hikes, and love trying new foods and experiences.

I am a freshman at Yale University, hailing originally from Seattle in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I believe that education is one of the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way.

Brittany
BA Yale University
7+ Years Tutoring

I am a Yale University graduate with professional teaching experience at the college level. I know the SAT Writing and Reading sections like the back of my hand, and I know English, writing, and history as subjects just the same, but what I know most is how stressful and daunting the college admissions process can be. I am most passionate about helping you succeed in your school and test prep endeavors and to do that, I will teach you the test taking methods, study habits and study tricks that work best for you individually. No cookie-cutters tactics, no frustration. I am here to instruct, support, build confidence, encourage, and most of all, to be a patient guide in getting you where you want to be.

Current Undergrad, Mathematics and History Yale University
10+ Years Tutoring

I'm an undergraduate student at Yale University, with a prospective double major in Mathematics and History. I strive to bring students toward their lightbulb moments not by repeating facts until they're drilled in, but by helping my students understand precisely why the laws of science, the rules of grammar, and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across New Britain's 19 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the New Britain school district or transfers in from elsewhere, we match them with tutors who understand Connecticut's academic standards and can support their specific learning needs.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 11.9:1 in New Britain schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who provide the individualized attention that classroom settings sometimes can't offer, helping students master challenging concepts and build confidence in their abilities.

Tutors working with New Britain students are familiar with Connecticut's curriculum frameworks and assessment expectations across core subjects like math, English language arts, science, and social studies. They tailor instruction to align with grade-level standards and help students prepare for state assessments and district benchmarks.

The first session focuses on getting to know your student—their learning style, current challenges, and goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically, discuss any specific areas of concern (whether it's keeping up with classwork, preparing for a test, or building foundational skills), and create a personalized plan moving forward.

New Britain students most often seek support in math (from elementary arithmetic through algebra and geometry), English language arts (reading comprehension and writing), and standardized test preparation. We also work with students on science, social studies, and foreign language support, depending on their grade level and academic goals.

Varsity Tutors offers flexible pricing options to fit different budgets, with rates varying based on the tutor's expertise, subject, and frequency of sessions. We recommend starting with a consultation to discuss your student's needs and learn about pricing options that work for your family's situation.

Many students show improvement in understanding and confidence within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the student's starting point and goals. For students working toward specific milestones—like improving a grade, passing a test, or mastering a skill—tutors establish clear benchmarks to track progress and adjust instruction as needed.

Start by telling us about your student's needs, grade level, and subjects they need help with. Varsity Tutors will match them with a tutor who's a good fit, and you'll schedule an initial session to see how the tutoring relationship works for your student.
