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.

I look forward to meeting and working with you soon!
Quinn
Calculus Tutor • +17 Subjects
I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.
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
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!
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

From running a piano program at a nonprofit children's theatre to private tutoring in math, science, and standardized test prep, I enjoy helping my students become confident and self-sufficient learners! Hobbies: photography, travel, reading, music, writing, running, art, books, traveling

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Lexington's 108 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Fayette County Public Schools district or another area school, we can match them with a tutor who understands local curriculum standards and can provide targeted help with their specific coursework.
With an average student-teacher ratio of 12.7:1 in Lexington schools, many students benefit from the focused attention that personalized 1-on-1 instruction provides. A tutor can work at your student's pace, address specific learning gaps, and provide the kind of individualized feedback that's harder to give in a classroom setting, helping them build confidence and master challenging material.
Your student's first session is an opportunity for them and their tutor to get to know each other and establish goals. The tutor will assess your student's current understanding of the subject, identify specific areas where they need support, and create a personalized plan aligned with their school's curriculum and learning objectives. This foundation ensures every session that follows is focused and productive.
Tutors working with Lexington students are familiar with Kentucky's academic standards and how they're taught in local schools. They can help students master grade-level content, prepare for state assessments, and develop the critical thinking skills emphasized in Kentucky's curriculum—whether your student needs support in math, reading, science, or other core subjects.
Lexington students work with tutors across a wide range of subjects, with math and English being among the most common areas where students seek support. However, we also connect students with tutors for science, history, foreign languages, test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams), and specialized subjects—whatever your student needs to succeed in their coursework.
Tutoring costs vary based on factors like the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We work with families to create a tutoring plan that fits their needs and budget. During your initial consultation, we can discuss your student's goals and help you understand pricing options so you can make the best decision for your family.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and experience helping students succeed. Tutors work across different backgrounds—some are teachers, subject matter experts, or experienced educators—and are selected based on their ability to connect with students and deliver personalized instruction that works.
Getting started is simple—reach out to Varsity Tutors and tell us about your student's needs, goals, and schedule. We'll match them with a tutor who's a great fit, and you can begin personalized instruction right away. Most families see their student connect with a tutor quickly and start making progress on the areas that matter most.
