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 across Springfield's 84 schools and both school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in Springfield Public Schools or Parkway, we match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and can support their specific academic needs.

Springfield students frequently seek help with math, English/language arts, science, and standardized test preparation—particularly as they work toward meeting Missouri's academic standards. We also support students preparing for ACT exams, which are widely taken across Missouri high schools. Tutors can focus on whatever subjects your student finds most challenging.

With Springfield's average student-teacher ratio of 12.6:1, many students benefit from one-on-one attention that addresses their individual learning gaps. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by providing focused instruction tailored to your student's pace and learning style, helping them master concepts that may get less attention in a traditional classroom setting.

During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current level, understand their specific challenges, and learn about their learning style. This helps establish a personalized plan that targets the areas where your student needs the most support, whether that's catching up, staying ahead, or preparing for an important exam.

Tutors are familiar with Missouri's academic standards and can align their instruction to ensure students are building skills in line with state expectations. This is especially helpful for students working toward grade-level proficiency or preparing for state assessments, as tutors can focus on the specific content and skills Missouri requires.

Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We recommend contacting us for a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs. Many families find that investing in targeted tutoring early prevents larger academic gaps down the road.

Yes, tutoring can be scheduled around your student's existing commitments—whether that's school, sports, or other activities. Tutors work with families to find times that work best, making it easy to fit personalized instruction into your student's routine.

Simply reach out to Varsity Tutors and let us know your student's grade level, subject needs, and availability. We'll match them with a qualified tutor who fits their learning needs, and you can start with a first session to see if it's a good fit.
