Scoring 770 on her own Quantitative section, Elizabeth knows the GRE math isn't about advanced concepts — it's about recognizing which arithmetic, algebra, geometry, or data analysis principle a question is really testing beneath its wording. She taught GRE prep as an adjunct professor at American University and developed formula guides and shortcut strategies specifically for the Quantitative Comparison and Data Interpretation question types. Her students learn to spot the traps ETS builds into answer choices rather than grinding through brute-force calculations.

Between a biochemistry degree and a master's in biology, Thomas has run enough statistical analyses and quantitative problem sets to recognize the GRE Quant section for what it is — recycled algebra, ratios, geometry, and data interpretation dressed up in deliberately tricky phrasing. He teaches across the full math ladder from pre-algebra through differential equations, which means he can spot exactly where a rusty concept is causing downstream errors and fix it at the root. Rated 4.8 by students.
My teaching philosophy is focused on a single objective - that students learn. I have a Ph.D. in Criminology from the University of Pennsylvania and a J.D. from Temple Law School. My GRE score was a 326, and my LSAT score was a 173. I've tutored over 60 students through Varsity Tutors. I'm committed to helping students reach their full potentials.
Having taught high school math abroad through the Peace Corps and later completed quantitative coursework in her MPH at Emory, Irina has cycled through the exact algebra, ratios, and data analysis concepts the GRE Quant section recycles — multiple times, in multiple contexts. She's especially sharp at diagnosing the specific rusty spots that trip up students who haven't touched formal math since undergrad, then building targeted practice around those gaps.
Hello, my name is Destiny and I graduated from Howard University. I majored in Psychology with a minor in Biology and Administration of Justice. One of the most important lessons I've learned from school is the value of asking for help. This can be the difference between simply memorizing some facts and truly understanding the material given to you. In many cases, learning in a traditional school setting is not effective and students should feel free to reach out for extra guidance. I strive to be that source of guidance for all students who need it. I believe that everyone learns in their own way and that the key to helping someone else lies in finding their unique style of learning. I take great pleasure in finding those styles and using them to enrich students minds. My main areas of expertise are Psychology and English. Ive been reading at a college level since middle school and scored 5s on both AP English tests. I also scored a 5 on the AP Psychology exam in addition to receiving As in all my psychology classes. I have extensive experience with essay writing, essay editing, and researching. Other subjects I can assist with include Algebra I and II, Geometry, and SAT/ACT prep. Outside of class, I like to stay busy with school activities and hobbies. I spend most of my time playing the trumpet in my schools marching band or studying. But when I have free time, I typically catch up with my shows or read.
I am a graduate of Grinnell College, a private liberal arts college located in Grinnell, Iowa. I have a Bachelor of the Arts in Computer Science from Grinnell's Department of Math and Computer Science. Since graduation I have tutored students of a wide variety of ages and background in a number of subjects. I have tutored middle school students in the Chicago area in Math and science and high school students in advanced Math, chemistry, writing, and helped them prepare for standardized tests for college admittance. I have also tutored adults preparing for academic proficiency tests for their jobs and with GRE prep for those interested in going to graduate school. Additionally I have taught English grammar, reading, and conversational skills to ESL students in Chicago, Ecuador, and Colombia. While I tutor a number of subjects, I particularly enjoy helping students with standardized test strategy and following their scores as they increase towards their goal. When I tutor, I aim to lead students to an answer by example so that they can see the reasoning involved themselves, rather than me just telling them the answer. The more the students can come to their own solutions, the more memorable the lessons will be. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing skill games like scrabble, bridge, and poker, and outdoor activities like biking, camping, and canoeing when the weather is nice.
Reviews from students: "I loved how you explained math. You were able to explain formulas so they made sense and it was engaging. Thank you for making math interesting." - Ferol Conklin "I have published over 20 articles, and no one has ever edited my articles as thoroughly or as helpfully as you did." - Mark Ragel "The instructor was the best I had at this university." - Spanish student, University of Illinois "Elle was kind, patient, and funny. She seemed to really enjoy teaching." - Spanish student, University of Illinois I have three years professional teaching experience and several years of tutoring experience. I have always been a teacher at heart. I feel my biggest strength as a tutor is looking at material from the perspective of the student. I have also been described as a calm, patient, passionate, and fun tutor. I think lesson plans should be interesting to motivate students to care about the subject and engage in the process of learning. I worked as a Spanish TA at the University of Illinois for two years as as the main instructor for over 200 students. I have also worked as a middle school teacher. I have experience tutoring a variety of subjects, including test prep, reading and writing, and various levels of math. My degrees are in Linguistics, Spanish, and Journalism, with a minor in Math.
I have tutored and/or taught mathematics since 2009. I have received graduate degrees in mathematics from Clark Atlanta University and the University of Florida. I am very patient with my students and strive to develop their skills, strategies and critical thinking.
I have always been passionate about math and science. I love to teach others about these subjects so that they can appreciate and understand the material as well. I have a bachelors of science degree in Biology from the University of Florida. I know that many K-12 students loose interest in math and science because of inadequate teaching of these subjects. I want to help students do well in their math and science classes so they can succeed in school and use this knowledge in their future jobs and careers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and commitment level, but most students see meaningful gains—typically 5-10 points on the 130-170 scale—within 8-12 weeks of focused preparation. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps identify your specific weak areas (whether that's geometry, data interpretation, or algebra) and builds targeted strategies rather than generic test prep. The key is consistent practice between sessions combined with expert guidance on question patterns and time management.
Pacing and time pressure are the most common struggles—you have roughly 90 seconds per question, which forces you to work efficiently without sacrificing accuracy. Many students also struggle with recognizing question types quickly and knowing which strategy to apply (plugging in numbers, backsolving, estimation, etc.). Tutors help you build pattern recognition and develop a personalized approach to each question type so you can work faster while staying confident in your answers.
The best way is to take a full-length practice test under timed conditions, then review which question types and content areas caused the most mistakes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who can analyze your practice test results to pinpoint whether you need work on algebra, geometry, word problems, data analysis, or test-taking strategy. This diagnostic approach means you spend study time on what actually matters for your score, not generic review.
Most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of preparation, meeting with a tutor 1-2 times per week while doing independent practice in between sessions. Your timeline depends on your target score, starting point, and how much time you can dedicate to studying—someone aiming for a 160+ will need more intensive prep than someone targeting a 150. A tutor can create a personalized study plan that fits your timeline and goals, breaking down the content into manageable chunks.
Both—early on, focus on mastering individual question types and content areas so you build foundational skills. Once you're comfortable with the material, full-length timed practice tests are essential to build stamina and refine your pacing strategy under real test conditions. Tutors typically recommend taking 3-5 full practice tests during your prep period, reviewing each one thoroughly to identify patterns in your mistakes.
Confidence comes from preparation and familiarity—when you've seen question types repeatedly and practiced your strategies under timed conditions, the actual test feels less intimidating. Tutors help build this confidence by breaking down complex problems into manageable steps, teaching you how to recognize what a question is really asking, and giving you permission to skip difficult questions strategically. Regular practice with expert feedback also reduces the fear of the unknown on test day.
Your first session typically starts with understanding your goals, timeline, and current comfort level with math concepts. If you haven't taken a practice test yet, your tutor may recommend doing so to identify your baseline and specific weak areas. From there, they'll create a personalized study plan that prioritizes the topics and strategies that will have the biggest impact on your score.
