I am in my second year at MIT studying mathematics, and I am currently doing a research project in Spectral Graph Theory. I have been a tutor since my junior year in high school, and I enjoy teaching all levels of math; everything from pre-algebra through calculus and linear algebra! I focus primarily on making sure that the definitions and processes given in class make intuitive sense, so that math can begin to feel like second nature.
Wamweni
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania pursuing a Masters in International Educational Development. I graduated from Stetson University with my BA in 2017, and since then have worked in inner city schools. The last two years, I have taught Algebra and Geometry at a charter high school, while managing a math tutorial program within the school. I find great joy is setting students up for success and helping them achieve the utmost in school. I do not only focus on student academic performance, but also on their social-emotional well-being, so they may attain a positive mindset of their day-to-day learning. I have 10 years experience working with elementary kids, including assisting with homeschooling. However, I am more passionate about helping students understand higher levels of mathematics. I am a believer in quality education, that's why I make sure to create an engaging learning environment for my students.

Matt
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +43 Subjects
I am a firm believer that all students learn differently and identifying how each student best learns is essential to his/her academic success. Therefore, as a tutor, I aim to specifically tailor my teaching style to each student in order to help them maximize their potential. Outside of academics, I enjoy exercising, playing basketball, cooking, and attending concerts and other live performances in the Philadelphia area.

Katherine
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a senior at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania studying Finance and Operations & Information Management. I am an Executive Board Member of one of the largest community service groups on campus, the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project, so I have had plenty of experience tutoring elementary and middle school students in reading and math in the Philadelphia area. Prior to my experience tutoring in Philadelphia, I ran an online writing program teaching essential writing skills to elementary school students and served as an Algebra I instructor at a local community center. I enjoy tutoring math up to Algebra 2, SAT Math, and editing essays (including college essays) because helping students build math foundations that will help them for the rest of their life is rewarding and I greatly enjoy editing essays! I have a very flexible tutoring style - I am approachable and willing to answer any questions related to the material. Hopefully, I can explain things as simply as possible so they stick. Outside of school, I enjoy piano, dancing, visiting museums, art, and discovering new foods and restaurants. Looking forward to tutoring!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across York's 8 school districts with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends school in the York City School District, South Western School District, or any of the other districts in the area, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and academic goals.
Pennsylvania has specific standards for math, reading, science, and social studies that students must master at each grade level. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who are familiar with these state standards and can provide targeted instruction to help close gaps and build confidence in key areas like PA-required standardized testing and course competencies.
York students frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing skills, and test preparation for standardized assessments like the PSSA and Keystone Exams. We also work with students on science and social studies support, particularly when they're preparing for AP or honors-level coursework.
During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, identify specific challenges, and learn about their learning style and goals. This initial meeting helps establish a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and sets the foundation for productive, focused sessions moving forward.
York's average student-teacher ratio is about 14:1 in classrooms, which means teachers have limited time to address each student's individual needs. With personalized 1-on-1 tutoring, your student gets dedicated attention focused entirely on their specific challenges and learning pace, allowing for faster progress and deeper understanding of difficult concepts.
Absolutely. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors experienced in preparing for PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment), Keystone Exams, and other state-required assessments. Tutors can focus on the specific content areas and test-taking strategies that help York students perform confidently on these important evaluations.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions your student needs. Varsity Tutors works with families to create flexible tutoring plans that fit different budgets and schedules. Contact us to discuss your student's specific needs and get personalized pricing information.
We consider your student's subject needs, grade level, learning style, and specific goals when connecting them with a tutor.
