Jessica

College Algebra Tutor • +51 Subjects

I am a licensed physician from Florida who is currently changing careers. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and have extensive tutoring and editing experience. While a student, I became a certified writing tutor through the Critical Writing Department. Since I completed my writing requirement at the University prior to matriculating, I was the first freshman tutor to be accepted into this selective program. The tutoring program involved a preliminary peer-tutor training course prior to beginning tutoring, in order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects. After graduation, I worked for a full-service learning center where I created and implemented high school lesson plans for home-schooled students, provided academic support for students ranging in ages from 8 to 20 years old, and taught group and individual standardized testing preparation classes. I have also assisted students with application essays for various undergraduate and graduate programs.

Jeffrey

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Tony

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

Matthew

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Henderson's 64 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Green Valley area, the newer developments, or anywhere else in Henderson, we match them with tutors who understand Nevada's curriculum standards and can support their specific academic goals.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 21.2:1 in Henderson schools, many students benefit from one-on-one attention that classroom settings can't always provide. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by giving your student dedicated time to work through challenging concepts, ask questions without hesitation, and build confidence in their learning—something that's difficult to achieve in larger classes.

Henderson students typically seek tutoring in math, science, and English—especially during transitions between grade levels and when preparing for state assessments. We also see strong demand for algebra support, chemistry, and reading comprehension, as well as test prep for the ACT and SAT. Tutors can help with any subject your student is studying, tailored to Nevada's academic standards.

The first session is designed to build rapport and assess your student's strengths and challenges. The tutor will ask about their learning style, current coursework, specific struggles, and goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or mastering a particular concept. This foundation helps create a personalized plan that addresses exactly what your student needs.

Tutors working with Henderson students are familiar with Nevada's academic standards and curriculum expectations across grade levels. They can help students master state-tested content, prepare for Nevada's assessments, and develop the skills needed to succeed in Nevada's schools. Whether your student needs to catch up or get ahead, tutoring is aligned with what's expected in Nevada classrooms.

Tutoring pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's specific needs. We work with families to find options that fit their budget, and many families find that personalized tutoring is an investment that pays off quickly through improved grades and confidence. Contact us to discuss your situation and get pricing information tailored to what your student needs.

Absolutely. Tutoring sessions can be scheduled around your family's commitments—whether that's after school, evenings, weekends, or during school breaks. We work with you to find times that work, so tutoring enhances your student's learning without adding stress to your family's routine.

Personalized tutoring addresses the root of your student's struggles rather than just covering material. A tutor can identify whether the issue is a gap in foundational skills, a learning style mismatch with how the material is being taught, or simply needing more time to process concepts. With one-on-one support, your student can rebuild confidence, fill knowledge gaps, and develop strategies that help them succeed—often leading to noticeable grade improvements within weeks.
