Who needs tutoring?
No obligation. Takes ~1 minute.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an incoming first-year medical student with a deep passion for the human body and mind. As a student who thrived with tutoring, I love teaching students how to think about problems and answer tough questions.
I am a recent magna cum laude graduate of Duke University and a full-time educator in North Carolina. I have a passion for helping young people figure things out and have experience writing professionally.
I am currently a student at Duke University studying Biomedical Engineering and Economics. Just a little bit about me and some of my interests. Some of my favorite academic interests include memoirs and modern classics. I think Catcher in the Rye is still one of my all time favorite books but Percy Jackson, a modern classic, is up there too. Beyond academics, I take great guilty pleasure in watching TV shows such as Westworld, Sherlock, How I Met Your Mother, and even The Bachelorette when I'm at a low point.
I am currently doing research on personalized therapies for glioblastoma brain tumors at the Duke Medical Center, before I continue on to medical school. I love to swim, walk my pug dog, and hang out with family and friends in my free time. I hope I can help you in your studies. I look forward to working with you!
I am proficient at US History and can help an AP US History student towards a 4 or 5 on his or her exam. My concentration for both of my post-high school degrees was religion, and I would love to tutor students who are taking religion courses. My favorite hobby is reading, and I believe it is important to instill an enjoyment of reading in students as early as possible. I can help young people who need extra support to become better readers.
I am an avid rower and bicyclist. I also greatly enjoy growing vegetables and playing basketball.
I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Duke University. I received my Bachelor's degree in History and my Master's degree in Religious Studies. Since graduation I have tutored students in American History and Biblical Hebrew, which were exceedingly rewarding experiences. I am especially passionate in helping students learn to think critically, and enjoy the process of learning. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most enthusiastic about tutoring in History and Writing because these subjects utilize skills that students will use and cultivate throughout their lives and are applicable for many careers. I would describe my teaching philosophy as hands on and project-based learning. I strive to include fun and relevant videos, songs, and activities into my curriculum to ensure the engagement of my students. Outside of academia I like painting, baking, hiking, photography, and having game nights with friends.
I am a sophomore at Duke University studying computer science and physics. Academically, I am drawn towards disciplines that employ logical problem-solving. I enjoy working with others to discover new intuitive ways of understanding problems.
I am a freshman at Duke University in the Pratt School of Engineering. I plan on majoring in Civil or Environmental Engineering, as well as Economics. While I am qualified to tutor a range of subjects from math and science to ACT prep, I get the most excited when working on improving a student's writing because it is such a beautiful process. Sparking students' curiosity and excitement is the most rewarding part of tutoring, and I make it my mission to achieve that with all students I work with. In my free time, I am involved in a variety of groups on campus such as the triathlon club, FEMMES (a female-oriented STEM tutoring club), and The Chronicle, which is Duke's student newspaper. I also enjoy reading, running and baking all sorts of delicious delicacies.
I am a rising senior at Duke University. I major in Computer Science and am also getting a minor in Physics. I have had experience tutoring/teaching as a teaching assistant for three classes: Intro to Databases, Electricity and Magnetism (for engineers), and Computer Network Architecture. I have had industry experience in software development as an intern for IBM and a cybersecurity analyst for TIAA. Outside of school/work, I play the piano and train with the Duke Taekwondo Club. I have a strong background in computer science, physics, and math, but I love learning about and helping students with a wide variety of subjects!
I am a Marshall Scholar and will begin graduate studies at the University of Cambridge in the fall.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Gastonia's 29 schools and all three school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in Gaston County Schools, Gastonia City Schools, or another district in the area, we can match them with a tutor who understands local curriculum standards and can provide targeted support.
Tutors working with Gastonia students are familiar with North Carolina's Standard Course of Study and can help students master grade-level expectations in math, English language arts, science, and social studies. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify specific gaps and build skills at a pace that works for each student, which is especially valuable given Gastonia's average student-teacher ratio of 15.9:1 in classroom settings.
Gastonia students frequently seek help with algebra, geometry, and other high school math courses, as well as reading comprehension and writing skills. We also work with students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, and those needing support in science courses like biology and chemistry. The specific needs vary by grade level, so tutors tailor their approach to each student's academic goals.
The first session is a get-to-know-you meeting where the tutor learns about your student's academic strengths, challenges, and goals. They'll review recent schoolwork, discuss what your student is studying in their Gastonia school classes, and create a personalized plan for ongoing support. This foundation helps the tutor deliver instruction that directly supports what your student is learning in class.
Absolutely. Research on 1-on-1 instruction shows it's one of the most effective ways to help students catch up and build confidence. Tutors work with Gastonia students to fill specific knowledge gaps, reinforce classroom concepts, and develop stronger study habits—all at a pace that allows the student to truly master the material rather than just keep up.
Yes, tutoring isn't just for students who are struggling. Advanced Gastonia students benefit from personalized instruction that challenges them to go deeper into subjects they're passionate about, prepare for advanced placement (AP) or honors courses, or explore topics beyond the standard curriculum. Tutors can accelerate learning and help gifted students stay engaged.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. Many Gastonia families start with one or two sessions per week and adjust based on their student's progress and upcoming academic milestones. We can discuss what works best for your budget and your student's needs when you connect with us.
Simply reach out to let us know your student's grade level, subject, and goals. We'll match them with a tutor who fits their needs and schedule. Most Gastonia families are able to connect with a tutor quickly and can begin personalized instruction within days.
