Anthony

Calculus Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a certified English teacher and Principal in the State of Missouri. I believe that students are under more pressure than ever to succeed in school. However, due to the ever increasing class sizes that some of the best schools are experiencing students are not able to receive the personal attention that some of them need to be at their best. That is why tutoring can be so valuable. I am able to work one on one with a student which allows me to devote all my time to helping them with their particular problems. I am able to help students understand what it is they are being asked to do, assist them in accomplishing it and finally, provide them the ability to recall the information for future use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from all 9 schools across Hazelwood with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends Hazelwood High School, one of the middle schools, or an elementary school in the district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and grade-level expectations.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 15.5:1 in Hazelwood schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. Tutoring provides the individualized attention that allows students to ask questions freely, work at their own pace, and build confidence in challenging subjects without the constraints of a traditional classroom setting.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who are familiar with Missouri's academic standards and Hazelwood's curriculum expectations. Whether your student needs help with Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) preparation, state-aligned content in core subjects, or grade-level benchmarks, tutors can provide targeted instruction aligned with what Hazelwood schools teach.

The first session is an opportunity for the tutor and student to get to know each other and identify specific learning goals. The tutor will assess your student's current understanding, discuss any challenges they're facing in their Hazelwood classes, and create a personalized plan to address their needs—whether that's homework help, test prep, or building foundational skills.

Many tutors work across multiple subjects, so you can connect with a single tutor for help in math, reading, science, and other core areas. However, for specialized test prep (like ACT/SAT) or advanced subjects like AP courses, you might benefit from a tutor with deeper expertise in that specific area. Varsity Tutors can help match you with the right fit for your student's needs.

Tutoring sessions can be scheduled around your student's school day, extracurriculars, and family commitments. Whether your student needs help during the week after school, on weekends, or during busy exam periods, Varsity Tutors works with flexible scheduling to fit your family's life in Hazelwood.

Many students see noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the subject, the student's starting point, and how frequently they meet with their tutor. Regular sessions combined with practice between meetings help reinforce learning and build momentum toward academic goals.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have subject expertise and experience working with students at various levels. Tutors are vetted professionals with backgrounds in education, and many have experience teaching or tutoring in Missouri schools. When matching your student, we consider both their academic qualifications and their ability to work effectively with your student's learning style.
