Michael
BA Rice University • Doctor of Philosophy, Physics University of Michigan
7+ Years Tutoring

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.

Nicole
MS University of Michigan-Flint • BA University of Innsbruck
5+ Years Tutoring

I am passionate about helping students. I believe that we all are learners and teachers. all of us are readers and writers. I have the ability to share my passion for learning with others, and one of my greatest strengths is building relationships with students which is the corner stone to successful learning and teaching. I believe that there are no bad kids or bad students, it's just that we all have different paths and ways of learning, we all have a different pace. As a teacher i strive to acknowledge that and find ways to support all students, adapting to their needs and paths, meeting them where they are at. It is my job to believe in every single student and help them believe in themselves. When I am not teaching or engaging with students, I like to read, walk, hike, travel, explore, work out, watch my favorite shows. I enjoy playing and watching ice hockey, and I try to go home to visit my family in Italy once a year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Saginaw's 63 schools and 11 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Saginaw Public Schools district, Bridgeport-Spaulding Community Schools, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands Michigan's curriculum standards and can support their specific academic goals.

Saginaw's average student-teacher ratio is 17.6:1, which means classroom teachers often manage large groups with varying learning needs. Personalized 1-on-1 tutoring allows a tutor to focus entirely on your student's strengths, gaps, and learning style—something that's difficult in a traditional classroom setting. This individualized approach helps students progress faster and build confidence in subjects where they're struggling.

Tutors connected through Varsity Tutors are familiar with Michigan's academic standards and how they're taught across Saginaw's school districts. They can target specific areas where your student needs support—whether that's reading comprehension, math problem-solving, or test preparation—and align their instruction with what's expected in Michigan classrooms. This ensures tutoring directly supports what your student is learning in school.

Students in Saginaw seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects, with math and reading being particularly common at elementary and middle school levels, while high school students often need support in algebra, geometry, chemistry, and test prep for the SAT and ACT. We also connect students with tutors for Michigan-specific assessments, writing skills, and subject-specific challenges. Whatever your student's academic needs, Varsity Tutors can help match them with the right tutor.

The first session is a chance for the tutor and your student to get to know each other and identify specific learning goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically, understand their learning style, and discuss what success looks like—whether that's improving grades, building confidence, or preparing for a specific test. From there, they'll develop a personalized plan to address your student's needs and track progress over time.

Absolutely. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction is especially effective for students who are falling behind, because tutors can slow down, reteach concepts in different ways, and fill specific knowledge gaps without the pressure of keeping up with a classroom pace. With consistent tutoring and targeted support, students often catch up to grade-level expectations and regain confidence. The key is starting early and being consistent with sessions.

Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and teaching experience. Many tutors have education backgrounds, teaching credentials, or deep expertise in their subject areas. We vet tutors carefully to ensure they're qualified to help students in Saginaw succeed, and we match your student with someone whose teaching style and experience fit their specific needs.

Getting started is simple—reach out to Varsity Tutors and tell us about your student's academic goals and challenges. We'll ask questions to understand what they need, then connect them with a tutor who's a great fit. You can schedule your first session at a time that works for your family, and from there, you and the tutor will work together to support your student's success throughout the school year.
