Joshitha
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +27 Subjects
I am a sophomore at Johns Hopkins University studying Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. I tutor many STEM subjects, SAT/ACT prep, and AP/IB classes! In the years past, I've mentored two robotics teams and I have experience tutoring at my school and in my neighborhood. I deeply believe that an intuitive understanding of educational content is crucial to success, and I implement this philosophy by teaching problem-solving techniques and strategies in addition to the material. In my free time, I love to read, paint, crochet, and watch TV shows. :)

I'm passionate about guiding high schoolers through the college application process. The admissions process is probably one of the most confusing, anxiety-inducing experiences you'll have in high school, but I'm full of ideas for making the entire process as successful and stress-free as possible. I've successfully guided many students through every stage of admissions -- from figuring out where to apply and then staying organized and on-track, to "packaging" themselves and producing a perfect personal statement -- and I love witnessing them achieve their admissions dreams.

I am a rising senior at Duke University majoring in Psychology and minoring in English. I first started tutoring when I was 10; I'd explain new words in books to my little sister and help her with cursive, work on times tables with my older brother, and teach the little bit of English I knew to my immigrant parents. I tutored students in my middle school through a counseling program, helped deaf and disabled students develop social and creative skills, and freelance tutored throughout high school, and have tutored Spanish-speaking immigrant families (ages 6-12) in Durham, NC since October 2018. Other teaching experiences include training my dog to go down a slide on command and teaching my 10th-grade precalculus teacher how to hand whistle. Though I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Writing. I believe reading and writing are not only complex forms of thinking, but avenues for understanding someone else's unique perspective and ways of being in life. I have the most fun helping my students dissect arguments and meaning from texts, especially when it's in Spanish, my native language. When I'm not tutoring, I most likely am listening to music, playing board games with my family, or looking at cat videos online.
Caitlin
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +36 Subjects
I am a rising senior at Duke University who is Pre Med and majoring in Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. I was born and raised in Miami FL and went to public school until college (Sunset Elementary, GW Carver Middle and Coral Reef Senior High for those from Miami). I decided to start tutoring because I would not be on this path had I not had good teachers supporting me along the way. For that reason I want to be able to help others achieve their goals without academics being a huge hurdle.

Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books, running
James
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +54 Subjects
I am a graduate of SUNY University at Albany. I received my Bachelor of Science in Economics and Japanese with a minor in History in 2010. Since then (and even before as a sub) I have predominantly been teaching in the New York City public education system. I had worked as a substitute teaching assistant since 2008, moving between dozens of NYC public schools before finally settling in late 2011 at M.S. 216 George J. Ryan--an incredibly diverse middle school in Queens. During my tenure in the school system I have spent time teaching students from Pre-K to 12th grade, from all cultural background and socioeconomic statuses. Regardless of whom I have taught, I have always enjoyed it, partly because I often learn as much from my students as they learn from me. Regardless of the subject, I love teaching, and I find it to be one of the most rewarding and meaningful activities, which cliched as it may sound, really can make a difference in people's lives. Besides teaching, I am also keenly interested in the human body, specifically biomechanics, kinesiology, and rehabilitation through movement. I am currently enrolled in a Doctorate of Physical Therapy program at Washington University in St. Louis, which I should finish in 2018. Hobbies: art, books, sports, reading, music, writing

Rodrigo
SAT Tutor
My tutoring sessions are interactive, patient, and highly personalized. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all methodeach student learns differently, so I adapt my approach to match their individual pace, goals, and learning style. I focus on helping students truly understand the why behind each concept, not just memorize formulas or shortcuts. Together, we work step-by-step through problems, discussing reasoning, strategy, and underlying principles until everything clicks. My goal is to build lasting confidence and clarity. Whether a student is catching up, aiming to excel, or just trying to feel more comfortable with the material, I create a supportive environment where they can ask questions freely, think critically, and stay engaged. I also believe in strong communicationkeeping parents informed and helping students take ownership of their learning. Above all, I want my students to leave each session feeling capable, confident, and genuinely connected to what they're learning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Miami Lakes's 12 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a public elementary, middle, or high school in the area, we match them with tutors who understand the local curriculum and can help them succeed in their specific coursework and school environment.
Tutors work with students on Florida's B.E.S.T. standards and other state requirements across subjects like math, reading, science, and social studies. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify gaps in understanding and target the specific skills your student needs to master for state assessments and grade-level success.
During the first session, your tutor will assess your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building foundational skills. This helps the tutor create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and pace.
Students in Miami Lakes frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and science—subjects that are critical for Florida state assessments. We also support students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as AP and honors coursework.
While Miami Lakes schools maintain a 21.5:1 student-teacher ratio, personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to focus entirely on your student's unique needs, learning pace, and challenges. Research shows that individualized attention significantly improves understanding and retention compared to classroom settings where teachers must manage many students at once.
Frequency depends on your student's goals and current performance. Some students benefit from weekly sessions for consistent support, while others may need intensive help before a test or during a challenging unit. Your tutor will recommend a schedule that fits your student's needs and works with your family's schedule.
Varsity Tutors works to connect students with qualified tutors quickly. Once you reach out, we'll match your student with a tutor who fits their needs, and sessions can typically begin within a few days. We understand that students often need support urgently, especially as they work toward grades or test deadlines.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's needs. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets, and many families find that the investment in personalized instruction pays off through improved grades and academic confidence. Contact us for specific pricing and to discuss what works best for your situation.
