Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable 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

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 across Lafayette's 38 schools and 5 school districts with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Lafayette Parish School System, Acadian Charter Schools, or another local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and academic needs.
Tutors work directly with your student's coursework and Louisiana's academic standards, whether that's mastering grade-level math concepts, building reading comprehension skills, or preparing for state assessments. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to target exactly where your student is struggling and build confidence in the specific areas your school emphasizes.
While Lafayette's average student-teacher ratio of 19.2:1 is reasonable, it still means individual students can get lost in the shuffle, especially in subjects like math or writing where personalized feedback matters most. One-on-one tutoring fills that gap by giving your student dedicated attention to work through challenging concepts at their own pace, something that's difficult to achieve in a classroom setting.
The tutor will start by understanding your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving grades in a particular class, preparing for a state test, or building foundational skills. They'll assess what's working and what isn't, then create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and Lafayette's local curriculum.
Math and English are the most common subjects, especially as students progress through middle and high school where concepts become more abstract. Science, Louisiana History, test prep (for ACT and state assessments), and foreign languages are also popular. Whatever subject your student needs support in, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an expert tutor.
Tutors are experienced educators and subject matter experts who understand how to teach effectively one-on-one. They're familiar with Louisiana's curriculum standards and know how to explain concepts in ways that click for different learners. All tutors go through a vetting process to ensure they can deliver quality instruction for students in Lafayette.
Tutoring schedules work around your family's life—whether your student needs help after school, on weekends, or during summer break. You can adjust frequency and timing based on what works best, whether that's weekly sessions or intensive help before a big test or assignment deadline.
Contact Varsity Tutors and let us know your student's grade level, subject, and what they need help with. We'll match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and academic goals, and you can start personalized instruction right away. Most families see their student more engaged and confident within the first few sessions.
