9+ Years Tutoring

Strong writing comes down to knowing what to cut and what to develop, and Sam's background in both human biology and the humanities means he's comfortable coaching across genres — from lab reports to personal narratives.

Phonemany
BA University of California Los Angeles
1+ Years Tutoring

Getting ideas onto the page is only half the challenge — organizing them into a clear argument with strong transitions and purposeful structure is where most students struggle. Phonemany's anthropology background trained her to build written arguments from evidence, and she brings that same discipline to teaching thesis development, paragraph cohesion, and revision strategies. Rated 5.0 by students.

Justin

10+ Years Tutoring

Strong writing starts with a clear argument, not a five-paragraph formula. Justin's training in anthropology and political analysis taught him to build evidence-based claims from scratch, and he applies that same process when teaching students to outline, draft, and revise persuasive or analytical essays. He holds a 5.0 rating from students.

Sanda
BA Babes Bolyai University • Current Grad Student, Esol Babes Bolyai University
1+ Years Tutoring

Strong writing starts before the first sentence — with a clear claim and a plan for how each paragraph supports it. Sanda's English background and current ESOL graduate work mean she's equally comfortable coaching someone through argumentative structure, narrative voice, or the mechanics of clean, precise prose.

Kyle
Current Undergrad Student, Forensic Science University of New Haven

Alexis
BA Tulane University of Louisiana
6+ Years Tutoring

Clear writing starts with understanding how to build an argument — thesis, evidence, analysis — and Alexis teaches each piece as a distinct skill before combining them. Her International Relations background at Tulane meant producing research-heavy papers under tight deadlines, and she brings that same structured drafting process to every student she works with. Rated 4.9 by students.

Mackenzie
BA Northern Arizona University
5+ Years Tutoring

Getting ideas onto the page is one challenge; organizing them into a coherent argument is another entirely. Mackenzie teaches outlining and paragraph-level structure as concrete skills — topic sentences that actually preview the paragraph, evidence that connects back to a thesis — so students can replicate the process independently on any assignment.

Brandon
BA University
10+ Years Tutoring

Brandon treats writing as a process of thinking on the page, not performing. Pursuing his English degree at UNLV, he walks students through everything from generating ideas and building outlines to crafting thesis-driven arguments with clean, purposeful prose. His own experience producing music also gives him an ear for rhythm and flow in sentences.

AM Dartmouth College

Zachary teaches students how to build an argument from a clear thesis outward, connecting each paragraph with purposeful transitions and supporting claims with specific evidence. His magna cum laude work at Dartmouth and a master's thesis at the University of Toronto gave him extensive practice turning messy ideas into polished prose.

Dylan
BA Northwestern University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a freshman Computer Science major enrolled in the McCormick School of Engineering at Northwestern University. I have a passion for teaching students, and I am experienced with having to give one-on-one guidance in teaching many concepts. Tutoring is very rewarding for me because I am driven to help others and give whatever knowledge I have gained over the years in every field. I also have experience dealing with situations in which students are not quickly or readily grasping concepts, and I have developed the patience to handle these situations. Teaching is just as rewarding for the student as it is for me, because I am thrilled when I see others achieve, and I would love to be part of the process. In addition to high school AP courses and test prep, I have taken college level multivariable calculus, linear algebra, physics electricity/magnetism and mechanics, computer programming (c++, matlab, LISP/Scheme), Dynamics of Systems, and Mechanics of Systems.

Michelle
BA Tufts University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent graduate from Tufts University with a major in International Relations and a minor in Economics. I have been helping students since I was in middle school working with students of all ages from kindergarten to college. Prior to spending four years at Tufts, I attended a boarding school in Massachusetts where I was committed to tutoring middle school students at a local Boys and Girls' Club for all four years. I always enjoyed seeing the energy of younger students who were eager to learn and their visible improvements. I also worked as a teaching assistant for an SAT prep center where I tutored SAT verbal and writing along with SAT II literature and math. I moved to Las Vegas a few months ago after finishing up college, and I would love to get back to working with students on a regular basis because I understand the importance of education and enjoy helping and seeing results. My favorite subject to teach is SAT because with the right help it is a standardized test that can see huge improvements in scores. Writing section is especially my forte because I think that grammar is the basic building block of the English language that deserves a little more attention in school. I feel a great sense of fulfillment when students start to understand the different structures of English sentences and appreciate such knowledge. In my spare time, I like to stay active and go to yoga classes, including antigravity yoga, and drive to national parks for fresh air. I am also a big foodie who enjoys regular trips to different restaurants with friends and an avid movie fan. I look forward to meeting with students here in Las Vegas!

Deepal
BA University
10+ Years Tutoring

I'm a sophomore at USC studying Biomedical Engineering. In high school, I maintained a 4.0 GPA while participating in organizations like Mu Alpha Theta so that I could tutor struggling math students in subjects ranging from Algebra to Calculus III. Seeing how comfortable I was in the environment really made an impact on me, and I want to continue that experience tutoring through Varsity Tutors both online and in person. Students I have tutored before in math and standardized testing subjects tell me that my strategies and quick methods for arriving at solutions saves them a great deal of time and energy as they take their exams, which reaffirms my passion and love of tutoring. In my classroom experiences, I found that sometimes the methods that were taught were just too confusing, so then I either created or looked up better ways that secured a better grade for me in the class; the idea that the same problem can be solved in many ways is an idea I try to impart in all of my students so that they can feel comfortable using a process they picked out instead. In my free time, Iove to watch movies, play Super Smash Bros, listen to new music, and read articles on Flipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your first session is about understanding your writing goals and challenges. A tutor will review your current writing samples, discuss what you're working on (whether it's essays, creative writing, or standardized test prep), and identify specific areas to focus on—like thesis development, organization, or grammar. This personalized assessment helps create a learning plan tailored to your needs.

Tutors work with you on the fundamentals of strong essay writing: developing a clear thesis, organizing your ideas logically, and supporting arguments with evidence. Rather than just marking errors, they help you understand how to build persuasive arguments and guide you through the revision process so you can apply these skills to future essays. This personalized feedback is especially valuable since classroom teachers often have limited time for detailed writing feedback.

Writer's block is common, and tutors have strategies to help you overcome it. They can guide you through brainstorming techniques, help you organize your thoughts before writing, and break down the writing process into manageable steps. Working 1-on-1 with a tutor also means you have someone to talk through your ideas with, which often helps ideas flow more naturally.

Yes. Tutors can teach you how to properly format citations, integrate sources into your writing, and avoid plagiarism—whether you're using MLA, APA, Chicago, or other styles. They'll help you understand not just the rules, but why proper citation matters, so you can apply these skills confidently across different assignments and classes.

Strong writing about literature starts with deep reading comprehension. Tutors help you analyze texts closely, develop interpretations supported by evidence, and articulate your ideas clearly in essays. Whether you're writing about novels, poems, or essays, personalized instruction helps you move from understanding what you read to writing persuasive analyses about it.

Grammar is the technical foundation—spelling, punctuation, sentence structure—while voice and style are about how you express your ideas uniquely. A tutor helps with both: correcting errors and helping you develop a stronger, more confident writing voice. This balance ensures your writing is both technically correct and engaging to read.

Absolutely. Whether you're preparing for the SAT Essay, ACT Writing, or AP exams with writing components, tutors can help you understand the specific requirements and time constraints of each test. They'll work with you on timed writing practice, thesis development under pressure, and strategies for organizing essays quickly—skills that transfer to classroom writing as well.

In a classroom with a 22:1 student-teacher ratio like many Las Vegas schools, teachers often don't have time to provide detailed feedback on every assignment. Working with a tutor gives you individualized attention on your specific writing patterns and challenges. This targeted feedback helps you understand your mistakes and develop stronger writing habits faster than general classroom instruction alone.
