I am currently working on a Master of Arts in Philosophy at Georgia State University, where I serve as a teaching assistant and writing consultant. I currently tutor in the areas of test preparation, government, philosophy, and religious studies. My passion for education stems from the joy I find in helping students achieve their goals. My teaching style involves asking lots of strategic questions to help students discover answers for themselves, a process which my students typically find quite empowering. Still, I recognize that each student has unique needs, questions, and learning styles, so I strive to listen first and then craft individualized plans to meet each student's particular objectives. In my spare time I like to get outside hiking, playing soccer, or volunteering at my church's community garden. I also enjoy reading, watching football, and cooking.

As an accomplished online math tutor with expertise in high school and undergraduate mathematics, my primary focus is on optimizing the learning experience for students. With a genuine passion for guiding students towards their academic goals, I am committed to personalized instruction tailored to each student's unique needs. I possess a strong track record of simplifying intricate mathematical concepts, enabling students to grasp core principles with clarity and confidence. By leveraging my extensive experience, I create an engaging learning environment that fosters deep comprehension and application of mathematical knowledge. My tutoring approach combines effective teaching strategies with interactive resources, ensuring that students actively participate in the learning process. Through targeted exercises, real-world examples, and practical applications, I empower students to develop a strong foundation in mathematics while simultaneously cultivating critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Furthermore, I emphasize adaptability and flexibility in my teaching style, recognizing that each student possesses different learning styles and paces. By customizing lesson plans and employing various instructional techniques, I accommodate diverse learning preferences and facilitate optimal progress. I am eager to contribute my expertise and dedication to foster academic excellence among students. Together, we can unlock their full potential and guide them towards a successful mathematical journey.
I am a lifelong learner, teacher, and researcher in the field of physics. I received a PhD in Physics from the University of Michigan and a BS in Physics from Rice University. I have four years of physics teaching experience at the University of Michigan, primarily undergraduate laboratory courses with an emphasis on electromagnetism, circuits, waves, optics, and real-world applications of these and other physical phenomena. Many of these courses, including one I helped design, focused on helping non-STEM students master physics concepts that may be difficult to grasp in a standard classroom setting. I have tutored in a variety of subjects since high school, but most recently I have spent several years helping students understand concepts and succeed in coursework throughout a large variety of college-level physics topics, from basic mechanics to advanced electrodynamics and special relativity.
I am passionate about children's education and excited to help students learn!
I am a PhD student at the University of Michigan, studying social psychology. Before this, I was at Duke University completing a BS in psychology as well as a MS in global health. My research combines the fields of global health and psychology by examining the effects of culture on self-related psychological processes. I hope to continue in academia to become a professor of psychology, as teaching is among my greatest passions.
I am a current sophomore at Yale University, studying Environmental Engineering and Global Affairs. I spent four years tutoring K-12 students in reading and math, and I believe in the importance of appreciating the process of learning and mastering concepts.
I am a senior at Yale University studying English. I have 5+ years experience tutoring high school/middle school students in writing, college essay editing, Common App advising, AP English, and ACT! My students have earned acceptances to Brown, Duke, Cornell, Vanderbilt, and the University of Michigan.
I am a secondary education teacher with a certification in Biology and Chemistry. I also completed my Masters in the Arts of Teaching degree at Wayne State University. I have a great passion for teaching and motivating students of all abilities to help them succeed in school and reach their full potential.
I am currently working towards my MD/PhD degree at Michigan Medical School.
I am a former high school STEM teacher with a passion for teaching, certified in Secondary Math and Biology. I LOVE math and science, and what they tell us about the world. As a teacher in Detroit, I've worked with students of all ability levels and learning styles, so I have a lot of strategies in my tool belt for tackling difficult concepts. My style as a tutor is to be patient, positive and encouraging. I tend to develop strong relationships with students as a mentor.
I am a graduate of The University of Michigan and The University of Pennsylvania (The Wharton School). I received my undergraduate degree in Civil & Environmental Engineering with a minor in history. Also, I recently graduated with an MBA from the University of Pennsylvania (The Wharton School).
I am really excited to become a tutor at Varsity Tutors. Currently, I am retired from a career in accounting. I have a master degree in accounting from University of Texas (Arlington), a master degree in education from Harvard University and a Bachelor degree in Psychology from National Taiwan University. I was born and raised in Taiwan but have lived in the U.S. for almost 34 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Varsity Tutors connects students from across Lansing's 11 school districts with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Lansing School District, East Lansing Public Schools, or any of the other districts in the area, we can match them with a tutor who understands Michigan's academic standards and local curriculum expectations.
With an average student-teacher ratio of 16.4:1 in Lansing schools, many students benefit from the focused attention that personalized 1-on-1 instruction provides. Tutoring fills that gap by giving your student dedicated time with an expert tutor who can target their specific learning needs, move at their pace, and provide the individualized feedback that larger classrooms can't always offer.
Tutors who work with Varsity Tutors are familiar with Michigan's content standards and assessments, including state testing requirements and grade-level expectations. They tailor instruction to help Lansing students build the specific skills and knowledge needed to succeed on state assessments and in their courses, whether that's reading comprehension, math problem-solving, or science concepts.
In the first session, the tutor will get to know your student—their learning style, current strengths, and areas where they need support. They'll also learn about specific goals, whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building confidence in a subject. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized plan that addresses your student's unique needs.
Lansing students seek tutoring across a range of subjects, with math and reading being particularly common, especially in elementary and middle grades. High school students often need support in algebra, geometry, chemistry, and writing. Varsity Tutors also connects students with tutors for test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams), language learning, and subject-specific help across the curriculum.
We consider your student's subject needs, learning style, grade level, and goals to connect them with a tutor who's a strong fit. Our matching process takes into account tutor expertise, availability, and experience working with students in similar situations. You'll have the opportunity to meet with a tutor and make sure the relationship works before committing to ongoing sessions.
Yes. Tutors work with families to find session times that fit your student's schedule, whether that's after school, evenings, weekends, or during school breaks. This flexibility helps ensure tutoring supports rather than competes with your student's other commitments, and allows for consistent, regular instruction that builds momentum over time.
Many students show noticeable progress within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline varies depending on the student's starting point and goals. Regular 1-on-1 instruction with a skilled tutor accelerates learning because it's tailored to your student's pace and needs. We recommend discussing realistic expectations with your tutor based on your student's specific situation.
