James
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +41 Subjects
I am currently a senior at Harvard College where I study chemistry, and I'll be attending Columbia Medical School next year. I have years of experience tutoring college students in math (mostly calculus) and chemistry including both general and organic chemistry. In addition, I am very familiar with all sections of the SAT and ACT having prepared several high school students for these tests. I believe that every student is capable of boosting his or her baseline score on these tests, so long as he or she works hard to get to know the format of the tests and the most popular types of questions. I tutor because I love seeing students develop a genuine passion for the subjects they once disliked (such as math and science), once they understand the power of these subjects and their applications to the real world.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning.

Johari
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects
I am an actor/composer/lyricist who loves to write new showtunes. Musical theatre is something I have grown to love, and the love, surprisingly, stems from my own devotion to cartoons and video games. But, make no mistake, while I can often be found watching an episode of Justice League, playing Smash, or giving the City of Angels score another listen, I will always put you first. Hobbies: art, reading, writing, books, music
Chelsey
Calculus Tutor • +31 Subjects
I'm a recent graduate of Northwestern University, a native New Yorker, and a recent addition to Varsity Tutors. I grew up in Westchester County, where I volunteered as an assistant creative writing teacher in high school. After high school, I moved to Evanston, Illinois for school. I studied a wide variety of subjects in college: from Medieval Literature to Buddhist Psychology. I moved back to New York after graduating to pursue a career in the arts. I currently work as a reader for the literary director of an Off-Broadway theatre company.
Sherry
Middle School Math Tutor • +34 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, with a bachelor's degree in psychology and linguistics. Currently, I am pursuing a master's degree in speech-language pathology at Teachers College, Columbia University. In the past, I have worked as a teacher's aide in a public school classroom, a mentor to middle school girls, an instructor and tutor at the literacy education organization 826, and a summer camp counselor. I tutor a diverse range of subjects, and I find that I especially enjoy tutoring language arts, reading, and writing at all levels, from elementary school all the way up to college/grad school test prep. As a tutor, I am committed to helping students reach their full potential as learners. Throughout my years as an educator, I have seen firsthand the remarkable academic growth that can occur when tutors provide students with the individualized support that they need. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, journaling, and learning about other languages and cultures.

Laura
College Algebra Tutor • +37 Subjects
I am a graduate of Princeton University, class of 2014. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with a focus on recent American economic history. I was a pre-med, molecular biology major for my first two years at Princeton, and while I ended up deciding not to pursue a career in the sciences, I took many science classes in high school (AP) and in college, and still enjoy these subjects. Since graduating from Princeton, I have moved to Manhattan where I have started a job as an analyst at a private equity firm. I tutored professionally in Princeton for three years, and am excited to continue working with students as a Varsity Tutors tutor. I have experience tutoring elementary school math, Algebra, Algebra II/Pre-calc, English literature, writing (esp. essay editing), Biology (including AP), Chemistry (including accelerated and AP), SAT, and French (through French III). My own educational experience has had a formative impact on my style as a tutor. I attended a Montessori school from pre-school through 8th grade, and was heavily influenced by the focus on independent learning, discovery, and exploration as a way to develop a more thorough and better understanding of academic subjects. I am passionate about making sure that students enjoy what they are learning, and I try to individualize tutor sessions to match the specific needs of each student. Both my parents are teachers (one a violin teacher and another a professor), which has also influenced my ability and desire to help students learn.

I myself am Colombian, bilingual, and a believer in an approach to teaching that prioritizes informed conversation and dialogue, while encouraging critical thinking and gaining skills that will be useful in futural professional and academic fields.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students in Peekskill with expert tutors across all subjects and grade levels. Whether your student attends one of Peekskill's schools or is homeschooled, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific learning needs and academic goals.
Peekskill students most commonly seek support in math, English language arts, and test preparation for standardized exams like the SAT and ACT. We also work with students on New York State Regents exam preparation, science, and foreign languages. Varsity Tutors can connect you with a tutor who specializes in whatever subject your student needs help with.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students master the specific skills and content outlined in New York State standards at their own pace. Tutors work with students on Regents exam preparation, grade-level proficiency in core subjects, and building the critical thinking skills New York assessments require. This targeted approach fills gaps and builds confidence as students progress through their coursework.
The first session is an opportunity for the tutor and student to get to know each other and identify specific areas where support is needed. The tutor will assess your student's current level, discuss academic goals, and create a personalized plan tailored to their learning style. This foundation ensures every future session builds directly on what your student needs most.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We work with families across different budgets and can discuss flexible scheduling options that fit your needs. Contact Varsity Tutors for a personalized quote based on your student's specific situation.
Absolutely. Regents exams are a critical part of New York's education system, and many Peekskill students benefit from focused test prep. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors experienced in Regents-level content across math, English, science, and social studies. Tutors help students master key concepts, practice with released exams, and build test-taking strategies.
Learning gaps often develop when students miss foundational concepts or need extra time to process new material. Personalized tutoring allows a tutor to identify exactly where gaps exist and work at your student's pace to rebuild that foundation. This targeted approach is far more effective than classroom instruction alone, where teachers must move at the pace of the whole group.
Getting started is simple—reach out to Varsity Tutors with information about your student's grade level, subject needs, and goals. We'll match them with an expert tutor who fits their learning style and schedule. From there, you can begin personalized sessions designed to help your student succeed.
