Jeffrey
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.
Rhea
AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects
I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Matthew
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects
I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Sharon
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Hobbies: photography, travel, reading, music, writing, running, art, books, traveling

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Waco has 9 school districts serving over 26,000 students across 68 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in Waco ISD, China Spring, Midway, or another local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and academic goals.
Texas has rigorous academic standards, and personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to accelerate learning more effectively than classroom instruction alone. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who understand Texas TEKS standards and can target exactly where your student needs support—whether that's building foundational skills, preparing for STAAR exams, or advancing in advanced courses.
While Waco's average student-teacher ratio is 13.7:1, which is reasonable, many students still benefit from one-on-one attention for specific challenges. Personalized tutoring fills gaps that classroom instruction can't always address—whether a student needs to catch up, move ahead, or work through a particular subject they find difficult. This targeted support complements what teachers do in the classroom.
Waco students seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects, but math, reading, and science are particularly common—especially as students prepare for STAAR assessments or transition to more rigorous high school coursework. We also connect students with tutors for test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams), foreign languages, and subject-specific help in courses like algebra, geometry, and biology.
The first session is focused on getting to know your student and understanding their specific needs. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically, discuss goals, and learn about any challenges they're facing—whether that's keeping up with their Waco ISD curriculum, preparing for a specific test, or building confidence in a particular subject. This foundation helps create a personalized plan for future sessions.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions, and we work to offer flexible options for Waco families. We recommend starting with a conversation about your student's needs and budget—Varsity Tutors can connect you with tutors at different experience levels and help you find a schedule that works for your family.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong backgrounds in their subject areas—many hold degrees in their fields, have teaching experience, or bring specialized expertise like test prep certification. All tutors are vetted professionals, and we match your student with someone whose qualifications and teaching style align with what your student needs to succeed.
Getting started is simple—just reach out to Varsity Tutors and tell us about your student's needs, whether that's help with a specific subject, test prep, or academic confidence. We'll match your student with a tutor who's a good fit, and you can begin personalized instruction on a schedule that works for your family.
