Madeleine

Calculus Tutor • +19 Subjects

I am currently a senior attending the University of Notre Dame, and I am pursuing a degree in the Program of Liberal Studies (PLS). PLS is a renowned Great Books program that aims to perfect the student's ability to think critically in a variety of disciplines, such as literature, philosophy, and history. In PLS, great emphasis is placed on formulating deep and effective arguments and presenting them clearly in a technically correct manner, both in class and through my written work. Consequently, I have had much practice writing and editing my own work as well as editing that of my classmates. I am also pursuing a minor in education and am seriously considering pursuing a career in the educational field after graduating. I am passionate about helping others learn to the fullest extent of their abilities while enjoying the subject at the same time! Hobbies: running, reading, music, writing, art, books

Dylan

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects

I am known among friends for my love of puzzles, riddles, word problems, and mathematical challenges. I have a deep knowledge of pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and pre-calculus and a passion for teaching it. I also enjoy tutoring Spanish. While foundational vocab and grammar are important, I emphasize speaking and encourage my students to take risks. I believe embracing discomfort is critical to learning a language. Spanish has helped me to travel and live in different communities throughout the world. I strive to kindle a similar appreciation and passion for language in my students.

Tyler

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am a graduate of Luther College, a liberal arts school in Decorah, IA. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Religion, with a minor in Social Welfare. Throughout college, I tutored many students in high school and college level math. I loved the process of helping people through math problems, so after graduating I served in the MN Math Corps as a Math Enrichment Tutor, where I learned research based teaching methods to tutor middle school students who were below proficiency in math. Currently, I am certified to tutor a broad range of math subjects ranging from elementary math to pre-calculus, as well as ACT Math and GRE Math/Verbal test prep. Through my experience, I've found that the best method of tutoring is to tailor it to each student's learning style (every concept can be taught/understood in multiple ways), and make sure the student actually understands what he/she is doing versus just learning equations and methods to complete assignments. I am very passionate about tutoring math as I love empowering people, and I believe mathematics is a vital subject to learn and understand. In addition to tutoring, I have worked as a data analyst for a market research firm near Chicago. In my free time, I enjoy keeping up on current events, reading (I love Harry Potter and Hunger Games!), Ultimate Frisbee, playing guitar and piano, and learning economics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects students across Forest Grove's 11 schools and serves the Forest Grove School District. With a 17:1 student-teacher ratio in the area, personalized 1-on-1 instruction can provide the individualized attention that helps students thrive—whether they attend elementary, middle, or high school in the district.

Oregon has specific learning standards across math, language arts, science, and social studies. Tutors work with Forest Grove students to master grade-level content, build foundational skills, and prepare for state assessments. Personalized instruction targets each student's unique learning gaps, helping them progress at their own pace while staying aligned with district expectations.

Forest Grove students most commonly seek tutoring in math, reading comprehension, and writing—subjects that build the foundation for success across all other courses. Many students also benefit from support in science and test preparation for standardized assessments. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who specialize in these core areas and can adapt instruction to each learner's needs.

The first session focuses on getting to know your student—their learning style, current strengths, challenges, and goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically and discuss what you'd like to accomplish, whether that's improving grades, building confidence, or preparing for a specific test. This foundation helps create a personalized learning plan tailored to your student's needs.

Yes. Many Forest Grove students benefit from tutoring when they're struggling with specific concepts or falling behind grade-level expectations. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to slow down, reteach concepts in different ways, and build confidence. With consistent support, students often catch up and develop stronger foundational skills that help them succeed in future courses.

Absolutely. Tutoring isn't just for students who are struggling—advanced learners in Forest Grove benefit from enrichment and acceleration too. Tutors can challenge high-performing students with deeper problem-solving, advanced concepts, AP or honors course preparation, and intellectual curiosity projects. Personalized instruction ensures advanced students stay engaged and continue growing.

Varsity Tutors works with Forest Grove families to find a tutoring plan that fits their budget and schedule. Pricing varies based on the tutor's expertise, subject, and frequency of sessions. We recommend discussing your needs and budget when connecting with a tutor—many families find that even a few sessions per week can make a meaningful difference in their student's progress.

Getting started is simple: tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match you with an experienced tutor who's a great fit for your student. Once connected, you'll schedule your first session and begin working toward your student's academic goals with personalized, flexible instruction.
