I am firmly of the belief that learning a technical subject like chemistry, physics, or math is much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what t...

I am a firm believer of this and, as such, I do not spoon feed students during sessions but rather guide them to figure out how to answer their own questions and solve their own problems. Thus, I focus not only on what to do, but how and why to do it. One of the most significant drivers of independe...

Frequently Asked Questions

Homeschooled students benefit from personalized instruction that fills curriculum gaps, accelerates learning in strong areas, and provides expert guidance tailored to their specific learning style. A tutor can offer accountability, structured feedback, and subject-matter expertise that complements a parent's teaching, especially in challenging subjects like advanced math, sciences, or foreign languages.

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors experienced in working with various homeschool curricula, whether you're using popular programs like Saxon Math, Apologia, or Classical Conversations, or following a custom approach. Tutors can align their instruction with your chosen curriculum and help reinforce concepts your student is learning.

Homeschooled students often struggle with subject areas outside a parent's expertise, staying motivated in isolated learning environments, and maintaining grade-level pacing across multiple subjects. Personalized tutoring provides expert instruction in difficult subjects, social accountability through regular sessions, and structured guidance to ensure students meet grade-level expectations in core academics.

During an initial session, a tutor will assess your student's current level, identify specific areas needing support, and discuss your homeschool goals and curriculum. This helps establish a personalized learning plan and allows your student to get comfortable with the tutor before diving into focused instruction.

It depends on the subjects and your student's needs. For elementary homeschool, one tutor can often support multiple subjects. For high school, subject-specific expertise becomes more important—connecting with specialized tutors in math, science, English, and other core subjects typically yields better results. Varsity Tutors can help you find the right match for your situation.

A tutor can assess your student's progress against standard grade-level benchmarks in reading, writing, math, and other core subjects, providing objective feedback on whether they're meeting expectations. Tutors can also recommend standardized assessments or progress monitoring tools to track growth over time and ensure your curriculum is appropriately challenging.

Frequency depends on your student's needs and goals. Some homeschoolers benefit from weekly sessions for targeted support in one or two subjects, while others prefer bi-weekly or monthly check-ins. A tutor can recommend an appropriate schedule based on your student's current level and the areas you'd like to strengthen.

Varsity Tutors connects Knoxville homeschoolers with experienced tutors who understand the unique needs of homeschooled students and can work flexibly with your schedule and curriculum. You can specify your student's grade level, subjects, and learning goals to get matched with a tutor who's the right fit for your family.
