Who needs tutoring?
No obligation. Takes ~1 minute.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
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!
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.
I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campus); social sciences; and literature/writing.
I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
I am an aspiring applied mathematician, with particular interest in image processing and climate science. I graduated in May 2017 from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelor's in physics and mathematics, and am beginning a PhD program in September 2017 at the University of Chicago in Computational and Applied Mathematics. I've tutored introductory physics students for three years and enjoyed it thoroughly, as a chance to help other students while revisiting fundamental concepts to enhance my own knowledge. I'm eager to continue reaching out and helping students of math and physics to succeed and, furthermore, to appreciate the beauty and power of these subjects.
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. Currently, I am in the master's program at the University of New Mexico where I am continuing my education in philosophy. Ultimately, I hope to go on to earn a PhD in Philosophy so that I can continue engaging in my passions for learning and teaching. While in school, I have spent countless hours coaching high school speech and debate both in person and working online with students across the country. My focus in coaching has been to emphasize philosophy and critical thought to prepare students to think through novel arguments on their own. I am passionate about teaching and tutoring because I love seeing students learn to be intellectually independent and think through problems on their own terms by developing their critical thinking skills. I have devoted my life to education because I am passionate about it, and I try to share some of my passion for learning with the students I work with. I tutor all sorts of Standardized Tests, and I particularly enjoy working on logic-based problems like analogies and math sections. When I am not tutoring or reading for school, I enjoy strategy games (both board games and video games), listening to music, hiking, playing basketball, and just relaxing with friends.
I am comfortable tutoring math subjects up to multivariable calculus and differential equations, as well as college physics.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ancient Greek opens doors to understanding Western civilization, philosophy, literature, and science at their source. Students who study Ancient Greek gain deeper insight into English vocabulary (over 60% of English words have Greek roots), improve critical thinking skills, and develop a foundation for advanced study in classics, history, theology, and medicine. For students in Baton Rouge pursuing higher education, Ancient Greek proficiency strengthens college applications and prepares them for advanced humanities coursework.
Ancient Greek instruction typically progresses from foundational elements—the Greek alphabet, basic grammar, and simple vocabulary—to more complex topics like verb conjugations, noun declensions, and sentence construction. Students advance to reading authentic texts from classical authors like Homer, Plato, and Aristotle. The curriculum emphasizes both reading comprehension and translation skills, with many programs incorporating cultural and historical context to deepen understanding of ancient Greek civilization.
The Greek alphabet and unfamiliar grammar system—particularly the complex case system and verb tenses—often challenge new learners. Many students struggle with memorizing vocabulary and mastering declensions and conjugations, which are foundational to reading fluently. Additionally, translating authentic texts requires both grammatical knowledge and cultural context, which can feel overwhelming without structured guidance and practice.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to target your specific weaknesses—whether that's grammar fundamentals, vocabulary retention, or translation strategy—at a pace that works for you. A tutor can break down complex concepts into manageable steps, provide immediate feedback on your work, and create a customized study plan that builds confidence. This focused approach helps students move from struggling with basics to reading authentic texts with growing fluency.
Your first session is an opportunity for a tutor to assess your current level—whether you're just starting the Greek alphabet or working through classical texts—and understand your goals. The tutor will ask about any specific challenges you're facing, review your curriculum or course materials, and begin building a personalized plan. You'll leave with a clear sense of your strengths and areas to focus on, plus actionable next steps for your learning journey.
Proficiency depends on your starting point and goals. Foundational literacy—reading simple texts and understanding basic grammar—typically takes 6-12 months of consistent study with regular tutoring. Deeper fluency with classical authors and cultural context requires 1-2 years or more. With personalized tutoring and focused practice, students progress faster than self-study alone, as tutors help you avoid common pitfalls and reinforce concepts efficiently.
Look for tutors with strong academic credentials in classics, Ancient Greek, or related humanities fields, ideally with graduate-level study or teaching experience. Effective tutors combine subject expertise with the ability to explain complex grammar clearly and adapt to different learning styles. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have proven experience teaching Ancient Greek and can demonstrate their ability to help students progress from fundamentals to advanced reading.
Consistent, spaced practice of grammar and vocabulary is essential—reviewing material at increasing intervals helps long-term retention. Regular translation practice, starting with simple sentences and progressing to authentic texts, builds fluency and confidence. Working with a tutor who assigns targeted homework, reviews your translations, and identifies patterns in your mistakes accelerates improvement far more than passive study. Many successful students combine tutoring sessions with daily practice and immersion in Greek cultural context.
