Pre-Algebra Tutor • +53 Subjects
I am a student at Brown University, where I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science in psychology. I employ a student-centered approach to tutoring, grounding the session in the student's knowledge of what topics it would be most beneficial to review. I typically begin a session by asking a student if there is any material they have learned since the previous session whose reasoning they would like for me to walk them through. I then help the student work through problems or questions that employ that understanding. My favorite subject to tutor is math; I love helping students understand the logic of a subject in which they may have been relying for years on memorization. I have been tutoring since 2016, and I have experience teaching math, science, language arts, history, French, and study skills to students in elementary, middle, and high school. I currently focus on math (pre-algebra, algebra, geometry), English, test prep, and essay writing.

I am a Brown University senior graduating this May with a bachelors of science in neuroscience. For the past year and a half I have spent numerous hours as a volunteer for Let's Get Ready, a SAT and college prep program. I began my involvement in this organization purely on a whim, in order to give back to the community around me. I quickly discovered my passion for teaching, however, and began serving as the head math coach within a few short months. Teaching has allowed me to take part in the development of future intellects. To this purpose, I teach only mathematics and science, as those are my personal favorite subjects. I also focus on improving one's ability to think through a problem, as opposed to learning simply by base memorization. I do this because when a student's focus is solely on memorization, they often quickly forget the material due to time or stress. However, the skills one gains from learning how to think through problems are much more stable and flexible. This flexibility allows for those skills to be used in multiple subjects, and towards more advanced learning.

Kashish
College Algebra Tutor • +59 Subjects
I am a student at Brown University pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering. In high school, I took a multitude of AP and college courses, so I am qualified to work with students on challenging material. I took high-level mathematics courses at a local university while in high school and participated in gifted programs as well as internship and research opportunities. My most recent tutoring endeavors include: tutoring math and reading for a variety of grades from K-12 and working for a private tutoring company as an SAT instructor, leading test-prep classes for high school students. I continue to pursue my educational and personal goals while at Brown. Although I am most experienced in the maths and sciences, I also love teaching English subjects as well as social sciences. I also value community involvement and have a love for the arts. I have danced for more than 15 years, on company teams and for benefit events in several communities. I also really enjoying figure skating, swimming, and participating in robotics programs and other enrichment activities. I have a passion for learning about and tutoring the maths and sciences because I have always been curious about the world around us, and science is a process of searching for fundamental and universal principles that govern causes and effects in the universe. I enjoy tutoring students for the opportunity to aid them in their quest for knowledge and to help them to question the world around them. I am a strong proponent of education and am excited to guide other students, helping them achieve their educational goals!
Alyna
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +26 Subjects
I am a graduate of Brown University, and I received my Bachelor of Arts in Classics and Evolutionary Biology. Throughout my undergraduate years, I tutored and mentored children from the local area, refugee children and adult immigrants. While living in Atlanta, I worked with the Fugees Family program tutoring and mentoring refugees, as well as worked with high school students from the Atlanta area. While I enjoy tutoring many subjects, I am most passionate about Classical and English Literature and Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. In my experiences assisting students with tough concepts, I always try to cater to the student's best learning style and work to make the material approachable, engaging and relevant. I believe that learning how to learn and loving to learn are critical skills and I hope to pass on this appreciation to my students. In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, reading, and making art.
Leah
Calculus Tutor • +34 Subjects
I am a junior at Brown University pursuing a degree in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics. After I graduate, I intend to enroll in an MD/PhD program in bioethics or health policy. In the past, I have tutored students between ages 10 and 19 in Political Science, Algebra II/Trigonometry, English as a Second Language, and sixth grade English and Math. I decided to become a tutor because my math tutor (from 8th-12th grades) took me from hating math to enjoying and succeeding in it. I want to help others make that same transition--a bad teacher or tough class can crush a student's innate curiosity, but a good tutor can restore it.
Alexandra
12th Grade Math Tutor • +42 Subjects
I'm a Math and French major at Brown University, and I've been tutoring for over three years. I have worked with young kids taking elementary-level math, middle school students taking Pre-Algebra and Algebra, high school students taking Pre-Calculus and Calculus, college students taking Calculus I/II and Linear Algebra -- and any level in between! Tutoring is one of my favorite activities, because every student I work with teaches me something new about my field. In addition to doing math and writing French poetry, I play the piano, contract bridge, soccer and tennis. I am also a passionate vegan, and hope to one day combine math and language into a field that draws on both the sciences and the humanities. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Providence has 17 school districts across the area serving over 26,000 students, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a public, charter, or private school in Providence, tutors can support their specific curriculum and learning needs.
Providence students frequently seek help with math, reading comprehension, and test preparation—especially as they work toward Rhode Island's state standards and assessments. Tutors also support students in science, writing, and standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, tailoring instruction to each student's grade level and goals.
Your first session is about understanding your student's strengths, challenges, and goals. Tutors assess where your student is academically, discuss what you hope to improve, and create a personalized plan. This foundation ensures every follow-up session is focused and effective.
Providence's average student-teacher ratio of 14.3:1 means classroom teachers often can't provide individualized attention. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction fills that gap—tutors focus entirely on your student's learning style, pace, and specific gaps, leading to faster progress and stronger understanding than group settings allow.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. Varsity Tutors offers flexible packages to fit different budgets and schedules. Contact us for a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and teaching experience. Tutors are vetted for their ability to work effectively with students at various levels, from elementary through college prep and standardized test preparation.
Many students show measurable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though this depends on the subject, starting point, and frequency of sessions. Regular 1-on-1 instruction helps students close gaps faster than classroom alone, and tutors track progress to adjust strategies as needed.
Start by telling us about your student's needs—subject, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and academic needs. You can then schedule sessions at times that work for your family's schedule.
