BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate at Washington University, and I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Math has always been one of my favorite subjects. I love Pre-algebra, Calculus, Linear Algebra and everything in between! I have tutored for about four years and have worked with students of all ages. Most students come to me for Math, but I have also worked with students on SAT and ACT test prep, Statistics and Physics. Everyone learns in a slightly different way, and I love figuring out the best way to teach something to people individually and dig down to what questions they really need to have answered to understand the material. In my spare time, I like to go on long bike rides and explore St. Louis's restaurants. I also love baking, playing with dogs and cats, watching movies with my friends and playing soccer.

5+ Years Tutoring

I am a dental student at University of Missouri-Kansas City and I will graduate with a DDS in 2025. I have benefitted immensely from study groups, peer workshops, and online resources during my time in undergrad, so I know how much a little extra work can help in the long run. I am excited to work with you to make your English, reading, writing, biology, or psychology goals a reality! When I'm not doing school stuff, I love to read, hang out with my foster cats, and spend time outside.

BA Washington University in St. Louis
15+ Years Tutoring

I'm tutoring to ask clarifying questions . I really enjoy taking seemingly difficult topics and explaining them in a logical fashion while emphasizing the basics every step of the way. I find that students' frustration with a concept generally stems from uncertainty regarding how to organize many intersecting ideas. Nothing makes me more proud then watching a student master a formerly daunting topic.

Mubariz
BA Washington University in St. Louis
6+ Years Tutoring

I am a high school graduate from The Pembroke Hill School in Kansas City, Missouri and currently studying at Washington University in St. Louis in the class of 2024. Through my high school's Spanish program, I tutored students just two years below my level of Spanish. And through our debate program, for my sophomore, junior, and senior years, I mentored students new to the activity. I have always seen helping other students as an opportunity of growth, not only for that student, but for myself as well. I feel that I am qualified to tutor all middle and most high school levels of math, chemistry, and Spanish. As for standardized tests, I am most oriented towards the ACT. My favorite subject to learn and tutor is Math because it allows the student an opportunity to understand a concept much deeper than the surface. And that is my focus for when I learn a concept or teach a concept: understanding not only the what but the how and why as well.

BA Rockhurst University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am originally from the suburbs of St. Louis, MO, and I attended Rockhurst University for my undergraduate degree. I obtained a Bachelor of Arts in French & Education with a minor in English Literature. I am also currently working towards a Master of Arts in French at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. I am certified to teach French K-12 in the state of Missouri (and have the qualifications for Kansas). I enjoyed teaching at both the middle school and the high school level as part of my training. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored both writing and French. I am now substitute teaching at a French immersion school in the area, and I had fun teaching grades 2nd and 5th there over the summer. I am available to tutor English grammar, literature, writing, math up to Algebra 1, all levels of French, and test prep (including ACT). As someone with an appreciation for languages, I especially like tutoring English and French. Since I am a certified teacher, I am prepared to present information in a variety of ways to help my students with understanding. Additionally, I like to help my students take responsibility for their own learning during our sessions. Aside from teaching, I enjoy spending time with my roommates and our animals, watching shows and movies, going to sporting events, and taking advantage of the nice weather outdoors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Florissant's 39 schools with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Florissant-Ferguson School District or nearby areas, we can match them with a tutor who understands local curriculum standards and can support their specific academic needs.

While Florissant's average student-teacher ratio of 12.5:1 is solid, personalized 1-on-1 instruction offers something different: completely customized pacing and teaching methods tailored to your student's learning style. A tutor can focus entirely on your student's specific gaps and strengths, providing the kind of individualized attention that's difficult to achieve even in smaller classroom settings.

Tutors connected through Varsity Tutors are familiar with Missouri's grade-level expectations and state assessment standards. They can target the specific skills your student needs to master in reading, math, science, and social studies, ensuring they're prepared for both classroom success and state assessments like the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP).

In the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, learning style, and specific challenges. They'll review any recent assignments or test results and develop a personalized plan focused on your student's goals—whether that's improving grades, preparing for standardized tests, or building confidence in a particular subject.

Like students across Missouri, Florissant students most frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, and standardized test preparation. We also work with many students on writing skills, science fundamentals, and test-taking strategies for ACT and SAT preparation.

Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's specific needs. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets, and you can discuss pricing directly when connecting with a tutor. Many families find that personalized instruction delivers strong results, making it a worthwhile investment in their student's academic success.

Absolutely. Tutoring sessions can be scheduled around your student's school day, extracurricular activities, and family commitments. Whether your student needs weekly sessions, intensive test prep before a big exam, or flexible scheduling around sports and other activities, we can work with your family's availability.

Results vary based on your student's starting point and goals, but many students see improved grades, stronger test scores, and increased confidence within a few weeks of consistent tutoring. The key is finding the right tutor match and maintaining regular sessions so your student can build momentum and master challenging concepts.
