As a licensed CPA and CFA Level III candidate, Jonathan knows the exam inside out — from FAR's government and nonprofit accounting standards to the AUD section's logic for evaluating internal controls. He breaks down each section's weight and question style so candidates study strategically instead of trying to memorize every AICPA blueprint line item. Rated 4.9 by students.

Finishing dual degrees in accounting and finance at UNF, Daniel knows the academic side of CPA exam content — FAR topics like governmental accounting and consolidations, and BEC concepts like cost accounting and corporate governance — inside and out. He walks candidates through the trickiest areas of the material with a structured, concept-first approach that builds real understanding before drilling multiple-choice strategy.
Nearly two decades as a licensed CPA in New York State — spanning public accounting, manufacturing, banking, and nonprofit work — means Sharon has actually applied the material tested on FAR, AUD, REG, and BEC in real engagements. Her Master's in Accountancy with a forensic accounting concentration adds depth on topics like fraud examination and valuation that candidates often find abstract. Rated 5.0 by students, she connects exam concepts to the professional scenarios that make them easier to internalize.
Jonathan scored a 93 on FAR, 90 on AUD, 95 on BEC, and 94 on REG — and he uses that recent experience to teach candidates exactly how to prioritize study time across each section. He digs into the areas that sink most first-time takers, like governmental accounting in FAR or basis calculations in REG, and builds targeted review strategies around them. His Master in Professional Accounting from UT Austin gives him the technical depth to explain even the trickiest multi-step simulations.
I'm looking forward to helping your student find personal success in their academic lives!
I am most passionate about SAT/ACT Reading and Writing, Spanish, History, and ESOL. I enjoy being a tutor because I love to help students strive for and achieve their goals! I believe every student learns in a different way, which is why I personalize my tutoring approach to fit YOUR needs. I am familiar with the SAT and ACT reading and writing sections, and I can help students improve their scores by walking them through practice questions AND giving them my own testing strategies. I know the SAT and ACT can be stressful for students, but I prepare them so that they walk into the testing room feeling confident and ready!
I am a rising senior at The University of North Texas in Denton. I am working towards my Bachelor of Arts in Spanish as well as English with a concentration in Creative Writing. I was raised in an academically competitive environment in Fort Bend County and my rigorous secondary education prepared me for success in college. I am a fortunate member of the Terry Scholarship Foundation, which has provided me and hundreds of other Texans with a private, four-year, full-ride scholarship. As a Terry Scholar, I am well-versed in all subjects and have taken on the role of mentor to many of the incoming freshmen. I have spent most of my free time in college as a nanny and tutor to families around the DFW area. I have experience with all age groups and there is nothing that intimidates me! While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, History, Spanish, and Government/Social Studies. Through my experiences helping struggling students and peers, I have realized the value of adaptability. Most people reach out to a tutor because the traditional classroom method is not best suited for their learning needs. There is nothing more joyful than when a student finally understands the material in a way that makes sense to them. Many times, students need flexibility and patience in order to grasp a foreign concept. I am a firm believer in the power of education and I hope to share my love of learning with all of my students. After graduation I plan on returning to Houston to obtain my Master of Arts in Teaching from Rice University. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and writing anything from poetry to screenplays. I have also been involved in competitive dance for most of my adolescence, so I understand the balance of academics and extracurriculars.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam is a rigorous, four-part test administered by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that validates expertise in accounting, auditing, financial reporting, and taxation. Passing the CPA exam is essential for anyone pursuing a career in accounting or finance, as it's required by most states to practice as a CPA and significantly increases earning potential and career opportunities.
The CPA exam consists of: Auditing and Attestation (AUD), Business Environment and Concepts (BEC), Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR), and Regulation (REG). Each section tests different competencies, with FAR and REG typically considered the most challenging. Most candidates benefit from focusing on one section at a time, allowing for deeper mastery before moving to the next.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify your specific weak areas—whether that's consolidations, lease accounting, or tax concepts—and create a targeted study plan rather than generic review. A tutor can explain complex topics in multiple ways, provide practice problems tailored to your learning style, and offer real-time feedback to help you understand not just the 'what' but the 'why' behind accounting principles, leading to faster improvement and higher pass rates.
Many candidates struggle with the breadth and depth of material—FAR and REG each cover hundreds of accounting standards and tax rules—combined with the pressure of balancing study time with work and life. Time management, understanding complex consolidation and lease accounting topics, and maintaining focus during the lengthy exam are frequent obstacles. Personalized tutoring helps by breaking material into manageable chunks and building confidence through targeted practice on problem areas.
Most candidates spend 120–150 hours studying per exam section, though this varies based on your accounting background and the specific section. Full-time study typically takes 4–6 months to complete all four sections, while part-time study may take 6–12 months. Working with a tutor can help you study more efficiently by focusing on high-impact topics and avoiding common pitfalls, potentially reducing your overall preparation time.
Look for tutors who are themselves CPAs or have extensive accounting backgrounds, as they understand the exam's nuances and real-world applications. Ideally, they should have experience helping multiple candidates pass the exam and be familiar with current AICPA standards and exam format changes. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have proven success in CPA exam preparation and can tailor their approach to your learning needs.
Your first session is typically an assessment and planning meeting. The tutor will discuss your accounting background, which exam sections you plan to tackle first, your target timeline, and any specific topics causing difficulty. Together, you'll create a personalized study roadmap that identifies your strengths and focuses on closing knowledge gaps, ensuring your tutoring time is spent on what matters most for your success.
Allentown's educational landscape includes multiple school districts and institutions with strong business and accounting programs that provide foundational knowledge. Personalized CPA tutoring complements formal coursework by filling specific gaps and providing targeted exam preparation. Many candidates in the Allentown area combine their accounting degree or professional experience with expert tutoring to accelerate their path to CPA certification.
