I am passionate about creating individualized lesson plans to address a tutee's needs, so that the student can thrive. I have a long list of resources that can provide alternative ways to learn, whether that's through well-written textbooks, videos, or interactive virtual tools. I am patient and encourage questions, and will work with a student step-by-step until they understand it well enough to answer it on their own.
Czarina
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects
I'm Czarina Alfonso, a junior at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. In high school, I was a honors student with membership in the National Honor Society, Science Honor Society and Math Honor Society. I was also a member of my school's Diversity Council and president of the medical club. Since I'm currently a chemistry major/premed student, I have lots of experience with STEM related courses (AP Chem, AP Bio, AP Calculus, AP Statistics). I've also taken both AP English Language and Composition and AP English Literature. In addition to my AP course load in high school, I also studied for multiple SAT subject tests (Bio 790, Math 2 770, Chem 770) and the SAT (770M, 770ERW). Outside of academics, I did lots of volunteer work (founded nonprofit called Give It a Shot that raises money to provide pneumonia vaccines to daycare aged children in the Philippines, worked at local hospital, peer tutored at school) and played a sport (fencing) at a national level. I have lots of experience tutoring students and sharing some of my time management/organizational strategies. I look forward to working with you! Hobbies: books, music, baking, art, reading, writing

Sabrina
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +27 Subjects
I am a third year electrical engineering student at Princeton University, with a focus in applied physics, and minors in German studies and history. I want to tutor because I am always excited about learning new things, and I want to share this with students of all ages. I find that this way, a student can do difficult work, excel, and feel both accomplished and happy. I have a broad range of specialties, from physics, to programming in Java and C, to German, to test prep and college applications help. I also love workshopping all kinds of writing, whether personal or academic. Some of my qualifications include physics research at a Max Planck Institute and acceptances to Harvard and UC Berkeley. I have experience teaching environmental science to children at a botanical garden and volunteering as a reading tutor for elementary schoolers behind grade level.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Paramus's 28 schools and 4 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Paramus Public School District, Ridgewood, Hackensack, or another local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands the specific curriculum and academic standards they're working with.
Paramus students benefit from tutoring that's aligned with New Jersey's academic standards and grade-level expectations. A tutor works with your student on the specific concepts they're struggling with—whether that's foundational skills or advanced material—allowing them to progress at their own pace rather than keeping up with a classroom of 20+ students. This personalized approach helps close gaps and build confidence in meeting state benchmarks.
During the first session, a tutor will assess your student's current level, understand their specific challenges, and learn about their learning style. They'll discuss goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building foundational skills—and create a plan tailored to your student's needs. This personalized foundation ensures every session that follows is focused and productive.
Paramus students commonly seek tutoring in math, English/language arts, science, and test prep (SAT, ACT, and AP exams). Many students also benefit from support in foreign languages, particularly Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. A tutor can help with any subject your student is taking, from elementary through college-level coursework.
While Paramus schools maintain an 8.8:1 average student-teacher ratio—better than many districts—classroom instruction still needs to move at a pace that works for the whole group. Personalized tutoring fills the gap by providing one-on-one attention focused entirely on your student's individual needs, learning style, and pace. This targeted approach helps students who need extra support, want to accelerate, or benefit from a different explanation of challenging concepts.
Absolutely. Varsity Tutors connects high school students in Paramus with tutors experienced in SAT and ACT prep. A tutor will assess your student's strengths and weaknesses, focus on the specific sections where they need improvement, and use strategies proven to boost scores. Many students benefit from starting prep in junior year to build skills gradually rather than cramming right before test day.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We work with families to find options that fit their budget—whether that's weekly sessions, intensive prep for an upcoming test, or ongoing support throughout the school year. Contact us to discuss your student's needs and get pricing information for your specific situation.
Getting started is simple: tell us about your student's grade level, subject, and goals, and we'll match them with an experienced tutor who's a good fit. You can typically connect with a tutor within days, and the first session can be scheduled at a time that works for your family. Most families find the personalized approach makes a noticeable difference within the first few weeks.
