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!

Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
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

Frequently Asked Questions
Students in East Honolulu seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects, with math and science being particularly common as students work to meet Hawaii's state standards and prepare for college entrance exams. English language arts, test prep (SAT/ACT), and Hawaiian language courses are also frequently requested. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who can support whatever subject or skill your student needs to succeed.
Hawaii's curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, cultural competency, and real-world application across all subjects. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to align their teaching with Hawaii's standards while addressing your student's specific learning gaps and learning style. This targeted approach helps students build mastery in core concepts rather than just test-taking skills, supporting long-term academic success.
During your student's first session, the tutor will assess their current understanding, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving grades, preparing for the SAT/ACT, or mastering a challenging concept. This initial conversation helps the tutor create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs. Subsequent sessions build on this foundation with targeted instruction and practice.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject expertise and teaching experience. Each tutor is vetted for their ability to explain concepts clearly and adapt to different learning styles. Many have backgrounds in education, professional experience in their subject area, or both, ensuring your student gets instruction from someone who truly knows the material.
Yes—tutoring works around your student's schedule, not the other way around. Whether your student is balancing school, extracurriculars, or work, Varsity Tutors can connect you with a tutor available at times that work for your family. Sessions can be as frequent or flexible as needed, making it easy to fit academic support into even the busiest week.
Absolutely. Many students in East Honolulu work with tutors to prepare for the SAT (scored 400-1600, with a national average around 1050) and ACT (scored 1-36, with a national average around 21). Tutors can focus on specific sections where your student needs improvement, teach test-taking strategies, and provide practice with realistic test conditions—all personalized to your student's goals and timeline.
Tutoring costs vary depending on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. Varsity Tutors works with families to find options that fit different budgets. We recommend discussing your needs and budget when connecting with a tutor, so you can find an arrangement that makes sense for your family while providing the academic support your student needs.
Getting started is simple—tell us about your student's needs, goals, and preferred subjects or areas for improvement. Varsity Tutors will connect you with a tutor who's a great fit. You'll have a chance to discuss your expectations, schedule your first session, and begin working toward your student's academic goals right away.
