Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who can work alongside your chosen curriculum—whether you're using a structured program like Sonlight or Classical Conversations, a secular approach, or a custom combination. Tutors can reinforce concepts from your curriculum, help with challenging units, or provide supplemental instruction in areas where your student needs extra support.

Many homeschooled students struggle with self-directed learning, staying motivated without classroom structure, or tackling advanced subjects where parents may feel less confident teaching. Math, science, and writing are frequent areas where families seek additional support. Personalized tutoring helps bridge these gaps by providing accountability, expert instruction, and the encouragement students need to stay on track.

The first session is about understanding your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals. A tutor will assess strengths and areas for growth, discuss your curriculum and expectations, and create a personalized plan for ongoing instruction. This foundation ensures that every future session is targeted and productive.

Tutors are familiar with grade-level standards and benchmarks, so they can help ensure your student is progressing appropriately in core subjects like math, reading, and writing. They can identify gaps from earlier grades, provide targeted practice, and help accelerate learning when your student is ready—keeping them aligned with or ahead of typical grade-level expectations.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who specialize in the subjects your student needs—whether that's elementary math, high school chemistry, AP preparation, or language learning. You can discuss your student's specific curriculum and learning needs, and you'll be matched with someone qualified to teach exactly what you're looking for.

Absolutely. Homeschool families have unique schedules, and tutoring can be arranged to fit your student's routine—whether that's mornings, afternoons, evenings, or weekends. Personalized instruction works around your family's needs, making it easy to integrate tutoring into your homeschool plan without disrupting your overall structure.

Progress looks different for every student—it might be improved test scores, mastery of a difficult concept, increased confidence, or better work completion. A good tutor will track progress regularly, celebrate wins, and adjust the approach as needed. You'll see tangible improvements in your student's understanding, independence, and attitude toward learning.
