Samuel
Expert Tutor
I am a graduate of Augustana College, where I received a Bachelor's degree, as well as Northwestern University, where I received a Master's of Science. After graduation, I worked as a research assistant at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. I have had experience in tutoring college-aged and adult students in the fields of research methods, Philosophy of Mind, and writing. I have also given informal instruction to friends with regards to math, coding, and preparation for standardized tests. I am especially interested in tutoring for Python coding, math, and test prep. As a self-taught coder, I am especially excited to see other people succeed in the field of Python. As somebody who had to learn to love math, I am excited to see students understand the workings of mathematics. Finally, as somebody who has been taking standardized tests since grade school, I enjoy helping others understand the workings of standardized tests and the skills (both academic and personal) needed to succeed at them. My teaching approach emphasizes flexibility and empathy; I firmly believe that there are always multiple ways of reaching the same solution, and I recognize that students may have different educational foundations. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, coding, and re-learning how to play the piano.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors throughout Houston and the surrounding areas, serving families across all 45 school districts in the region. Whether your student attends school in HISD, Katy ISD, Cy-Fair ISD, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands the specific curriculum and academic standards they're working with.
Houston students frequently seek tutoring in math, science, and English—subjects that are critical for meeting Texas state standards and preparing for standardized tests like the STAAR exam. We also work with many students on test preparation for the SAT and ACT, as well as AP courses, which are increasingly popular in Houston's competitive academic environment.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction is highly effective for STAAR preparation because tutors can focus on the specific areas where your student struggles—whether that's reading comprehension, mathematical reasoning, or writing skills. With Houston's diverse student population and varying academic needs across our 945 schools, tutors tailor their approach to match your student's learning style and fill gaps in understanding before test day.
In the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current level, discuss academic goals, and identify areas needing the most support. This might involve reviewing recent test scores, classwork, or specific topics causing difficulty. The tutor uses this information to create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and your family's objectives.
Houston's average student-teacher ratio is 16.3:1, which means classroom teachers often juggle the needs of many students at different levels. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to focus entirely on your student, adjusting pace and teaching methods to match their learning style. This targeted approach is especially valuable for students who need to catch up, move ahead, or master challenging concepts before they fall further behind in class.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's specific needs. We work with families to find tutoring options that fit their budget. Contact us for a personalized quote, and we can discuss flexible arrangements that work for your family's situation.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong backgrounds in their subject areas and experience working with students in Texas schools. Many tutors are familiar with Houston's curriculum standards and the specific challenges students face on state assessments. Each tutor is vetted to ensure they can provide high-quality, personalized instruction.
Yes, tutoring can be scheduled flexibly to fit your student's needs—whether that's after school, on weekends, or during the summer. Varsity Tutors works with families to find times that work best, making it easier to add academic support without disrupting your student's other commitments and activities.
