I'm more likely to give an answer quickly when a teacher asks a question if I have a habit of properly attuned instincts. So, if I want your confidence to grow, I need to redirect the water your instincts flow through to the proper conduits of careful thinking.

I am a graduate of Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with a focus on European history and the history of religion. I am extremely passionate about history and writing, and I have enjoyed tutoring students in these subjects for over five years. I began my journey as an educator in 2017, when I taught lessons about human rights and the history of religion to high school students in the San Francisco Bay Area. I continued honing my educational skills at Carleton, where I worked as a tutor and mentor for students with learning differences. I used my deep knowledge of history and writing to help students proofread their essays, study for humanities courses, and teach them important executive functioning and study skills to help them succeed in college. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to form empathic and intentional connections with my students. By learning more about their educational backgrounds and understanding their goals, I become a better mentor who will more effectively guide them through their studies. When I am not tutoring, I like to hike, kayak, read, write, and research my family's history.
Anniessa
Middle School Math Tutor • +46 Subjects
I am an educator and artist with a passion for languages. I have experience teaching in both Minneapolis and Paris, and I have tutored in K-12 core subject matters - math, science, language arts, and social studies. I have my Master's of Education from the University of Minnesota in Second Languages and Cultures with a narrow focus on English as a Second Language. I am fluent in French and have an intermediate level in Spanish and Arabic. My main goals when working with students is to meet them where they are at in their learning, as well as use creative ways to make knowledge accessible. When I'm not teaching, I am spending time outside, reading up and working on anti-oppression, and watching movies. I am also a novice herbalist and astrologer, and hope to dedicate more time in learning about our plan(t)cestors and how they help with healing. Hobbies: art, movies, books, reading, music, writing

Adam
Calculus Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am a class of 2015 graduate of Boston College. I have been brought to the world of tutoring because of my desire to help students through the stressful time of taking those big scary standardized tests. Both the ACT and the SAT gave me a large amount of anxiety when I was a junior in high school and I want to help other students through this process. This desire brought me to tutor kids in the local Boston high schools while I was in college and now I have taken my talents to the Twin Cities.
Reed
Statistics Tutor • +13 Subjects
Hi my name is Reed and I am a graduate from Carleton College with a degree in Economics. I have a passion for helping students learn and achieve their academic and personal goals. At Carleton, I played Varsity Soccer, hosted a radio show, and served as an economics prefect/TA for introductory microeconomics classes. In this role, I both held classroom sessions and tutored students individually. It was rewarding to see the results of my efforts and the impact I could have on other students. I am at an expert level in many math and economics areas. The key to my process is helping you not just 'get the answer' but also understanding the process of how to get there. I want to help students of all ages and make them think and have fun while learning.

I am a multi-media artist based in MN. I earned a BA in Cinema and Media Studies from Carleton College in 2016. In addition, I completed my IB diploma in 2012 from the International School of Geneva, Switzerland. I am passionate about teaching. As an artist, I am always seeking creative solutions to problems. This is part of why I am drawn to teaching. The act of teaching/tutoring requires creativity and awareness. As a tutor, I think it's important for me to be able to adapt my teaching methods to match the learning styles of my students and find dynamic ways to engage students with the subject material.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Lakeville's 24 schools with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Lakeville area or nearby, we match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and can provide targeted support aligned with what they're learning in their classrooms.
While Lakeville's average student-teacher ratio is reasonable, personalized 1-on-1 tutoring provides something classroom instruction can't: undivided attention focused entirely on your student's specific learning gaps and goals. This individualized approach helps students move at their own pace and build confidence in subjects where they're struggling, complementing their classroom experience.
Lakeville students frequently seek tutoring in math, reading comprehension, and test preparation (SAT and ACT). We also work with students on science concepts, writing skills, and support for students learning English as a second language. Tutors are experienced in helping students meet Minnesota academic standards across all grade levels.
The first session is a get-to-know-you meeting where the tutor learns about your student's current level, specific challenges, and learning goals. They'll assess what's working well and where support is needed, then create a personalized plan moving forward. This foundation ensures every session after that is targeted and productive.
Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who are familiar with Minnesota's academic standards and how they're applied in Lakeville schools. Tutors can reinforce concepts from your student's curriculum, help with homework aligned to state expectations, and prepare them for Minnesota-specific assessments. This localized approach ensures tutoring directly supports what's happening in the classroom.
Many students show noticeable improvement within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, especially in confidence and understanding of specific concepts. Larger gains—like improved test scores or grade increases—typically develop over a few months of regular sessions. The timeline depends on your student's starting point, the subject, and how frequently they meet with their tutor.
Absolutely. Varsity Tutors works with families to find tutoring times that fit around school, activities, and family commitments. Sessions can be scheduled throughout the week and adjusted as needed, so tutoring complements rather than complicates your student's routine.
Contact Varsity Tutors to tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals. We'll match them with a qualified tutor experienced in their subject and learning style, and you can schedule your first session at a time that works for your family. The process is straightforward so your student can start getting support quickly.
