Kim
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +43 Subjects
I am able to determine what obstacles are preventing a student from grasping a concept, and create different means of overcoming those obstacles. Creating a partnership with the student and understanding what he or she needs to overcome is what makes me a great tutor.
Scott
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +26 Subjects
I am a huge component of constant feedback. A session may be wasted if feedback is only provided in the last five minutes. For this reason, I would help students stay motivated by maintaining a conversation over the material and relating to other interesting aspects of their life. Hobbies: books, reading, writing, music, art, sports
Shannon
College Algebra Tutor • +32 Subjects
I am an undergraduate at Rice University, and my favorite subjects to tutor are math and science. I also enjoy doing test prep, and my experience comes from helping fellow students in high school. One of the most important aspects of tutoring is fitting the teaching style to each student. One method that works great for one student may not work well for another. Tutoring is all about coming up with different ways for my students to understand the material. If my student is not interested in the subject we are learning, I will try to find a way to tie in their interests and passions into the subject to better engage them. I want to be there for my students, not only as a tutor, but also as a friend. In addition to my interests in math and science (and learning in general), I enjoy swimming, biking, reading, and cooking. I also believe that fostering curiosity and determination are the keys to success. Hobbies: art, books, reading, cooking, music, swimming, writing

Toshiki
Calculus Tutor • +18 Subjects
I am a science writer and podcaster with a rigorous academic background who is passionate about sharing my knowledge of chemistry with curious minds. I earned a bachelor's degree in chemistry and Asian art history from UC Berkeley and completed a PhD in inorganic chemistry at MIT. I have five years of experience teaching college-level general and organic chemistry courses at various institutions in California, Massachusetts, New York, and Texas, and hope to expand on my experience as a private tutor. Often a required subject for other classes, chemistry is often considered "the central science" as it's related to biology and physics, and I appreciate that chemical principles can be observed throughout daily life from cooking to medicine to electronics. I believe that education is the world's greatest social equalizer and hope that my students learn to make new connections between classes and other aspects of their life. Outside of science, I love dogs, food, and the outdoors.

Tolu
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a graduate from Stanford University. I received my Bachelor's in Economics there and continued to receive a certificate in Full Stack Web Development from the University of Texas Austin. I have tutored intermittently, primarily teaching test prep; however, I have at different points taught most everything. Here in the Houston area, I've worked with Testmasters, C2 Education and Test Geek. I implement the Socratic Method into my teaching style: I ask plenty of questions that force students to deeply understand the material and to explain how they know why their answer is correct or not. I also believe it is my duty to equip students with tools to become better learners themselves which entails welcoming unique and creative approaches to solving problems, encouraging students to connect the relationships between different topics and subjects, and recommending using external sources and materials to learn and supplement understanding. Hobbies: art, travel, sports, reading, writing, books, traveling, music

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students throughout Temple with personalized tutoring support. With 30 schools and over 15,400 students in the area, we work with learners at all grade levels and academic backgrounds—whether they attend public schools, charter schools, or are homeschooled. Our tutors are familiar with Texas curriculum standards and can support students regardless of which Temple school they attend.
Temple students most frequently seek tutoring in math, English/language arts, and test preparation—particularly for STAAR exams, which are critical benchmarks in Texas schools. Science and social studies support is also common as students progress through middle and high school. We can connect you with tutors who specialize in whatever subject your student needs, from foundational skills to advanced coursework.
Absolutely. STAAR preparation is a key focus for many Temple families, and personalized tutoring can help students build confidence in tested subjects and develop stronger test-taking strategies. Tutors can work with your student on specific skills that appear on STAAR assessments in reading, math, science, and social studies—targeting the areas where they need the most support before test day.
Your first session is about understanding your student's strengths, challenges, and goals. The tutor will assess where your student currently stands academically, discuss what you'd like to achieve, and create a personalized plan moving forward. This foundation helps ensure that every future session is focused and productive, building on what works best for your student's learning style.
While Temple schools maintain a 14.3:1 student-teacher ratio on average, even this level of attention can't match the benefits of one-on-one instruction. In a classroom setting, teachers must address the needs of many students simultaneously. With personalized tutoring, the entire session focuses exclusively on your student—their pace, their questions, and their specific learning gaps. Research shows this individualized approach leads to significantly faster progress than group instruction alone.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. We offer flexible scheduling and can work with different budget levels—whether you need weekly sessions or intensive support before a major exam or deadline. Contact us to discuss your needs, and we'll connect you with tutors whose rates align with what works for your family.
Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have strong backgrounds in their subject areas and experience working with students at various levels. Many have teaching credentials, advanced degrees, or specialized expertise in test prep and specific subjects. All tutors are vetted to ensure they can deliver high-quality, personalized instruction that meets Texas academic standards.
We work to match students with the right tutor quickly so you can begin making progress right away. Once you tell us about your student's needs and goals, we connect you with available tutors in the Temple area. Many families are able to schedule their first session within days, depending on tutor availability and your preferred schedule.
