Mark
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects
i'm currently in the University of Notre Dame and am going to declare my major as Science and Business.
Ava
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +37 Subjects
I am current master's student pursuing an advanced degree in environmental engineering. I have about 3 years of experience tutoring a standard math and science curricula to students ranging in age from 7-17. I attended college at Washington University in St. Louis receiving a degree in mechanical engineering and energy engineering in 2020. During my time there, I worked as a teaching assistant for several different engineering courses, tutoring students outside of class in the calculus and physics related topics. As someone that benefitted greatly from tutors and teaching assistants, I really love being able to help students that are struggling in certain areas. I am able to help with standardized tests, focusing on math and science sections, AP Calculus and AP Physics exams, and high school math. Hobbies: books, writing, reading, music, hiking, art
Vincent
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +26 Subjects
I am a rising Sophomore studying Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. I graduated at James E. Taylor High School as rank 7 out of over 600 students and swam for my high school swim team for 4 years. Currently, I'd say I'm most experienced in math and science and above average in English and would feel most comfortable teaching any of these subjects. I'm welcome to any other subjects and will try to provide the best tutoring services for you.
Xiang
College Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am interested in sharing my knowledge with students, in helping them understand the subject and solving problems. I believe a good tutor can provide guidance, leading students through a thought process in solving problems. A good tutor will motivate the student to think and propose his or her own solutions and develop independent learning.
Andrew
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +19 Subjects
I am a graduate of The University of Portland, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. After graduation, I worked for Nike as a Test and Validation Engineer on their Digital Sport products (FuelBand, SportWatch, Nike+, etc.) for one year before returning to graduate school. I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in mechanical engineering from Stanford University, with a focus in design and manufacturing, and will graduate in the summer of 2015.

I am passionate about both. I have been a teaching assistant, tutor, researcher, guest lecturer, researcher, and am currently a practicing engineer.
Steven
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +45 Subjects
I'm looking forward to working with you. My degree is in Mechanical Engineering, so I can assist with that (mechanics would be my specialty there). I can definitely assist with math through Calc 1. I can assist with most Physics, and some Chemistry. Hobbies: writing, art, movies, books, reading, music
Fadzai
Calculus Tutor • +22 Subjects
I am a graduate of Yale University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on 3D Mechanical Design. During my time there, I was exposed to the many inequities that exist in accessing resources in STEM and since then I've been passionate about breaking down any barriers to entry. I've worked as an Engineering teacher, exposing students to Robotics, Engineering Design as well as Architectural design through platforms such as VEX, Roblox, Onshape, Autodesk Inventor and Autodesk Revit. As a mechanical engineer, I love to do anything that's hands on, innovative and challenges and improves my own skills. STEM is meant to be fun!

Frequently Asked Questions
Mechanical Engineering builds critical thinking and problem-solving skills that apply across academics and careers. A strong foundation in Mechanical Engineering opens doors to advanced coursework and prepares students for standardized tests.
Many students find that success in Mechanical Engineering boosts their confidence in related subjects too.
Common challenges include gaps from earlier material, difficulty with specific concepts, and trouble applying what's learned to new problems. These issues compound quickly in Mechanical Engineering because topics build on each other.
A tutor identifies exactly where you're stuck, fills in gaps, and gives you targeted practice until the concepts click. That 1-on-1 attention makes a big difference.
Look for someone with strong Mechanical Engineering knowledge who can explain concepts in multiple ways until you understand. Patience and the ability to adapt to your learning style matter as much as expertise.
Varsity Tutors vets all tutors through background checks, credential review, and teaching evaluation—so you can focus on finding the right personality and teaching approach fit.
For students who are struggling, stuck, or want to excel, tutoring often pays off in better grades, stronger test scores, and reduced stress. The 1-on-1 format lets you move at your own pace and focus on what you actually need.
Many students also develop better study habits that serve them in other subjects.
