As a passionate educator with a Master's degree in Chemistry from the University of Notre Dame, I thrive on empowering students in both math and chemistry. My tutoring experience includes working with high school students in subjects like pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry. I believe in fostering a supportive learning environment where students can conquer their apprehensions about challenging topics. By incorporating interactive problem-solving and encouraging students to explain concepts back to me, I ensure they grasp the material thoroughly. My background as a teaching assistant in analytical and organic chemistry has further honed my ability to connect with students and make complex subjects accessible.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame, IN, where I earned my doctoral degree in contemporary American poetry.

I have taught college-level composition courses, as well as a poetry course, and have tutored at Wake Forest University's writing center for two years, and therefore have experience in coaching students at different skill levels through many stages of the writing process, including formulating arguments, brainstorming ideas, handling grammatical issues, finding sources for research, and revising essays. I continue to enjoy meeting students where they are and walking with them through the learning process. We are all students of language; I find a deep satisfaction in enabling others to become great students.

Hi I'm Quinton! I'm a PhD student at the University of Notre Dame and I love talking about chemistry! To me, chemistry is a hands-on, creative discipline, much like art, where we solve problems and design things the world hasn't seen before. As your tutor, my goal is to help you build the skills and confidence you need to think critically, approach challenges creatively, and build a deep, genuine understanding of the material.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 25.1:1 in South Bend schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning.

We also work with students on executive function skills and homework support across all grade levels, helping them develop strong foundations for success in Indiana's schools.

In the first session, the tutor and student get to know each other and the tutor assesses your student's current level, learning style, and specific challenges. They'll discuss goals—whether that's improving grades, preparing for an Indiana state assessment, or building skills—and create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and your family's timeline.

Varsity Tutors works with families to find tutoring solutions that fit their budget and schedule. Rates vary based on the subject, tutor qualifications, and frequency of sessions.
