BA The University of Texas at Austin
1+ Years Tutoring

I am looking to begin tutoring as a true mentor, and not as a classmate. I have always excelled in and enjoyed the classroom setting. I scored a 34 composite on my ACT and 2120 on my SAT, and would be happy to help with the challenges of preparing for standardized tests, as well as regular subjects for school. Through the use of your or your child's textbook/test prep materials and problems that I assign for practice, I will make sure that you or your child is fully equipped for success!

Claire
BA University of North Texas
6+ Years Tutoring

I am working towards a degree in biochemistry, and I have a passion for science and math! My tutoring style is to meet students where they are at, which means each tutoring session can vary based off of material, age, pace, learning style, or level of understanding. It is my promise to give each student a personalized, fun tutoring experience. In my free time, I love to read, play violin, and indulge in board and trivia games.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

Reid
PhD Harvard University • BA Wesleyan University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

Charles
BA Yale University
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!

Christopher
BA Harvard College
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

Liz
MS Simmons College • BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Middle school is a critical transition where students juggle multiple classes, teachers, and increased academic expectations. Common challenges include struggling with organization and study skills, falling behind in foundational math or reading concepts, managing the jump from elementary to a more independent learning style, and balancing multiple subjects with different requirements. Personalized tutoring helps students build these skills before gaps widen.

In Denton's middle schools with an average student-teacher ratio of 12.1:1, teachers focus on the whole class while individual learning needs can get overlooked. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to adapt pacing, teaching style, and content to match each student's specific strengths and gaps. This targeted approach helps students catch up on missing concepts, build confidence, and move ahead—all at their own pace rather than the class schedule.

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who understand Texas state standards and the specific curriculum used in Denton schools. Whether your student attends a Denton ISD campus or another local school, tutors can reinforce classroom concepts, prepare for assessments, and help with homework in ways that directly support what's being taught in class.

The first session is focused on understanding your student's needs, learning style, and current academic situation. The tutor will assess strengths and areas for improvement, discuss goals, and build rapport with your student. From there, a personalized plan is created to address specific challenges—whether that's improving grades, preparing for a test, or building foundational skills in a particular subject.

Absolutely. Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors across all core subjects—math, English/language arts, science, and social studies—as well as electives and test prep. Whether your student needs help with algebra fundamentals, essay writing, science concepts, or study skills, there's a tutor with the right expertise to help.

Many students show noticeable improvement in confidence and understanding within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring. Measurable grade improvements often follow as students apply new skills and build momentum. The timeline depends on the student's starting point and how frequently they receive tutoring, but regular sessions—even 1-2 per week—create meaningful progress over a semester or school year.

This depends on your student's needs and goals. Some students benefit from weekly sessions to build consistency and tackle ongoing challenges, while others may need intensive support before a test or during a difficult unit. A tutor can recommend a schedule based on your student's specific situation, and you can adjust frequency as needs change throughout the school year.

Start by telling us about your student's grade level, subject needs, and learning goals. Varsity Tutors will connect you with qualified tutors who match those needs and are available to work with students in Denton. You can then meet with tutors to find the right fit before committing to ongoing sessions.
