On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...

Caleb
Middle School Math Tutor • +33 Subjects
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and I am studying social studies with a focus on Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. I have lived my whole life until college in the incredible countries of Rwanda and Kenya (with one year in Egypt). Since education wasn't easily accessible to me through elementary school, very early on I had to learn how to love learning and teach myself. Even after many years of more formal education I haven't lost that spark and that ownership of my education yet! I love tutoring because it allows me to bring people into that same kind of ownership of their knowledge. I love tutoring all sorts of different subjects, but I have the most experience (and maybe the most love) for tutoring in calculus, French, Arabic, English as a second language, and test prep!
Jonathan
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +14 Subjects
I am a freshman at Vanderbilt University currently pursuing a B.S. in Biochemistry. My inquisitive nature has fostered a love for mathematics, the natural sciences, and how they interact to produce the world we experience every day. This extends to my teaching strategy, where I emphasize the importance of conceptual understanding rather than pure memorization of equations and steps. My recent experience in a wide variety of Advanced Placement courses lends me insight to recent changes in course objectives and exam formatting.
Taariq
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Duke University, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in 2014. I am primarily a math tutor but I also enjoy teaching chemistry and physics. Math was always my favorite subject in high school and I continued my love of math at Duke. I have also been a middle school and high school tutor throughout my time at Duke through the Program in Education. One of my crowning achievements at Duke was winning the DT Stallings Award, which is awarded to a Duke senior who has shown sustained and dedicated service to tutoring local school children. When I am tutoring a student, I prefer a very hands-on approach. I love working out problems with my students after working through an example problem completely. By working problems out with my students, I am able to help them if and when they get stuck. I hope to convey to every student the ability to think logically and persevere when things seem difficult.

Katherine
Calculus Tutor • +42 Subjects
I am willing to help a student reach higher grades, but more important to me than the grade is that the student is actually getting something out of what we are doing, and truly learning, not just retaining information, but engaging with the material and enjoying what they are learning. I firmly believe that hard work pays off, and with the right encouragement and help, a student can achieve anything they set their mind to. You're never to old to learn something new, and the doorways opened by education are endless. Hobbies: travel, reading, music, writing, art, books, traveling, photography
Renee

I am a PhD student in Literature at Duke University. I have been tutoring (and directing tutoring programs) for years and am looking forward to working with you to meet your goals! I have spent nearly every year since college tutoring in some capacity, including as a volunteer through my current church. I enjoy the challenge of discerning the best way for each particular student to understand and absorb information, and am always thrilled to see when they regain their confidence in their own abilities. Hobbies: books, hiking, travel, reading, music, swimming, writing, painting, art, movies

Students in Cornelius frequently seek support in math, English/language arts, and science—subjects that form the foundation for North Carolina's state assessments and college preparation. We also work with students on standardized test prep, including SAT and ACT readiness, as well as subject-specific courses like algebra, geometry, and chemistry.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to focus on the specific North Carolina standards your student is working toward, whether that's mastering grade-level benchmarks or preparing for state assessments. With a student-teacher ratio of 17.6:1 in Cornelius schools, tutoring provides the individualized attention that helps students close gaps and build confidence in core subjects.
Your first session is focused on getting to know your student's learning style, academic goals, and current challenges. The tutor will assess where your student stands in their subject, discuss what they're working on in class, and create a personalized plan to help them succeed—whether that's catching up, staying ahead, or preparing for a specific test or assignment.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have deep knowledge in their subject areas and experience working with students at various levels. Tutors understand North Carolina's curriculum standards and are skilled at adapting their teaching to match each student's learning needs and pace.

You'll see progress through improved grades, stronger performance on assignments and tests, and increased confidence in the subject. We encourage ongoing communication between you, your student, and their tutor so you can track growth and adjust the tutoring plan as your student's needs change.
