Zachary
Trigonometry Tutor • +35 Subjects
I am passionate about teaching and tutoring and I thoroughly enjoy helping students gain an understanding and a drive for their studies. I have a long history of working with students of all grade levels and abilities (elementary school through college), and I have a good understanding of strategies to excel in both general academics and standardized tests.
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.
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!
Tiffany

I am available to tutor a broad range of subjects, I am passionate about test preparation, Accountancy, and Algebra.
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!
Annie
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am currently a second year medical student. I was a Physiological Sciences major at UCLA (class of 2015), and pursued research during my gap year between undergrad and medical school.
Samantha
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +38 Subjects
I'm a first-year medical student and recent graduate from Duke University, where I studied Global Health Determinants, Behaviors, and Interventions. 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
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
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

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Sanford's 7 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends one of the schools in the Sanford school district or is homeschooled, we can match them with a tutor who understands Maine's curriculum standards and can help them succeed.
Maine's learning standards require strong foundational skills in reading, writing, and math at every grade level. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students master these core competencies at their own pace, filling gaps that might develop in a classroom setting with a 12:1 student-teacher ratio. Tutors can focus on exactly what each student needs to progress and meet grade-level expectations.
Students in Sanford most frequently seek tutoring in math, reading, and writing—subjects that build the foundation for success across all other areas. We also work with students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as those needing support in science and social studies. Tutors can target whichever subject or skill your student needs to strengthen.
The first session focuses on getting to know your student—their learning style, current strengths, and specific challenges. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically and work with you to set clear goals. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized plan that addresses your student's unique needs and fits with what they're learning in their Sanford school.
Absolutely. While Sanford's average student-teacher ratio of 12:1 is reasonable, individual students still benefit tremendously from one-on-one attention. Personalized tutoring ensures your student gets dedicated time to ask questions, work through challenging concepts, and receive immediate feedback—something that's difficult in a classroom setting, no matter the ratio.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets and schedules. Contact us to discuss your student's needs and get a personalized quote—we'll help you find a tutoring plan that works for your family.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and tutoring experience. Many tutors have education backgrounds, professional expertise in their subject areas, or both. Each tutor is carefully selected to ensure they can provide high-quality personalized instruction aligned with Maine's educational standards.
Yes, tutoring can be scheduled around your family's availability. Whether your student needs help after school, on weekends, or during school breaks, we work with families to find times that fit. This flexibility makes it easier for Sanford families to add academic support without disrupting their routines.
