I am firmly of the belief that learning a technical subject like chemistry, physics, or math is much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what t...

I'm listening! My students are going to have a better idea than I -- at first -- about what they need help with. Observe, ask questions, and work together to problem solve their success.

I am a firm believer of this and, as such, I do not spoon feed students during sessions but rather guide them to figure out how to answer their own questions and solve their own problems. Thus, I focus not only on what to do, but how and why to do it. One of the most significant drivers of independe...

Frequently Asked Questions

Homeschool tutoring provides personalized 1-on-1 instruction tailored to your child's unique learning pace, style, and curriculum. Unlike traditional classrooms where teachers manage 20+ students, personalized tutoring allows tutors to focus entirely on your student's strengths, gaps, and goals—whether that's filling knowledge gaps, accelerating through advanced material, or building confidence in challenging subjects. This individualized approach often leads to faster progress and deeper mastery of concepts.

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors experienced in working with various homeschool curricula, including popular programs like Charlotte Mason, Classical Conversations, Sonlight, and secular options. Whether you're using a structured curriculum or a flexible approach, tutors can align their instruction with your family's educational philosophy and specific materials. During your initial consultation, you can discuss your curriculum so the right tutor match is made.

Many homeschooling families struggle with teaching subjects outside their expertise (like advanced math or sciences), maintaining consistent progress tracking, and keeping students motivated in challenging areas. Personalized tutoring addresses these by providing expert instruction in specific subjects, creating structured accountability, and building student confidence through targeted practice. Tutors can also help bridge gaps from earlier grades, ensuring a strong foundation for future learning.

The first session is typically an assessment and planning meeting. The tutor will evaluate your student's current level in the subject, identify strengths and areas needing support, and discuss your goals—whether that's mastering a specific topic, preparing for standardized tests, or building long-term skills. This information helps create a personalized plan for subsequent sessions so every meeting is focused and productive.

Tutors support all core subjects including Math (from elementary through Calculus), English/Language Arts, Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), History, and Foreign Languages. Many homeschooling families also seek tutoring for test preparation (SAT, ACT, AP exams), writing skills, and specialized subjects like coding or debate. Varsity Tutors can connect you with expert tutors in virtually any subject your student needs support with.

Very flexible. Since homeschooled students often have more varied schedules than traditionally schooled kids, tutoring can be arranged around your family's routine—weekday mornings, afternoons, evenings, or weekends. You can also adjust frequency based on your needs, whether that's weekly sessions for ongoing support or intensive sessions before exams or major projects. This flexibility helps tutoring integrate seamlessly into your homeschool structure.

Progress is tracked through multiple methods: improved performance on practice problems and assessments, mastery of specific concepts or skills, increased confidence and engagement, and achievement of your stated goals (like completing a challenging unit or improving test scores). Tutors provide regular feedback and can help you document progress for your homeschool records. Many families find that personalized tutoring leads to measurable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent sessions.

Varsity Tutors matches you with tutors based on your student's specific subject needs, learning style, grade level, and curriculum. You can discuss your preferences during the matching process, and if the first tutor isn't the right fit, you can request a different match. The goal is to connect your student with a tutor who understands homeschooling dynamics and can provide the personalized support your family needs.
