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.

Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

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

Matthew
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects
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, Varsity Tutors connects students from all five Leawood schools with expert tutors. Whether your student attends one of the elementary schools, middle school, or high school in the district, we can match them with a tutor who understands the local curriculum and Kansas academic standards.
While Leawood's 13.2:1 student-teacher ratio is strong, personalized 1-on-1 instruction offers something classroom learning can't—complete customization to your student's learning style, pace, and specific gaps. A tutor can focus entirely on your student's needs without managing a full classroom, which is especially valuable for students working toward advanced placement, test preparation, or catching up in a particular subject.
Tutors working with Leawood students are familiar with Kansas standards and the Leawood school district's curriculum expectations. They can target specific skills outlined in Kansas standards, whether that's literacy benchmarks in elementary grades, math proficiency in middle school, or college-readiness standards in high school—ensuring your student is building exactly what they need to succeed.
During the first session, the tutor and student get to know each other and identify specific learning goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for an exam, or building confidence in a challenging subject. The tutor will assess your student's current level and learning style to create a personalized plan for future sessions.
That depends on your student's needs. Many students work with one tutor across related subjects (like math and algebra), while others prefer specialists for different areas. Varsity Tutors can match your student with one tutor or multiple tutors based on what works best for your family—there's no one-size-fits-all approach.
Scheduling is highly flexible and designed around your family's needs. Whether your student needs sessions during the school week, on weekends, or during school breaks, Varsity Tutors works to find a tutor whose availability matches your schedule.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. There's no enrollment fee or long-term contract—you can start with as few sessions as you need. Contact Varsity Tutors for a personalized quote based on your student's specific tutoring needs.
Parents play an important role. You'll receive updates on your student's progress, and many tutors communicate regularly about what's working and where additional practice might help. You can also share specific concerns or goals with the tutor to ensure the sessions stay focused on what matters most to your family.
