Jessica

College Algebra Tutor • +51 Subjects

I am a licensed physician from Florida who is currently changing careers. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and have extensive tutoring and editing experience. While a student, I became a certified writing tutor through the Critical Writing Department. Since I completed my writing requirement at the University prior to matriculating, I was the first freshman tutor to be accepted into this selective program. The tutoring program involved a preliminary peer-tutor training course prior to beginning tutoring, in order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects. After graduation, I worked for a full-service learning center where I created and implemented high school lesson plans for home-schooled students, provided academic support for students ranging in ages from 8 to 20 years old, and taught group and individual standardized testing preparation classes. I have also assisted students with application essays for various undergraduate and graduate programs.

Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Jeffrey

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. South Bend is served by 9 school districts across 60 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the South Bend Community School Corporation, Penn-Harris-Madison, or another local district, we match them with tutors who understand Indiana's academic standards and can support their specific curriculum.

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. Tutoring provides the individualized attention that larger classrooms can't always offer, allowing students to move at their own pace, ask questions freely, and build confidence in challenging subjects.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who are familiar with Indiana's academic standards and assessments, including ILEARN and ISTEP+ requirements. Tutors tailor instruction to align with what South Bend schools are teaching, ensuring students master grade-level content and are prepared for state assessments and future coursework.

South Bend students typically seek help with math, reading and language arts, science, and test prep—especially as they approach high school transitions and standardized testing. 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. We recommend discussing your family's needs and budget when connecting with a tutor, so you can find an arrangement that works for you.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have subject expertise and experience working with students at various levels. Many have backgrounds in education, hold degrees in their subject areas, or have proven success helping students master Indiana standards. Each tutor is selected based on their ability to support your student's specific goals.

Varsity Tutors works to match students with the right tutor promptly. Once you share details about your student's needs, grade level, and subject, we connect you with qualified tutors available in the South Bend area. Many families schedule their first session within days of reaching out.
