Certified Tutor
Iman
AB University of Pennsylvania

Hi everyone! I'm Iman, an MCAT tutor with over 3 years of STEM tutoring experience. I scored a 519 (96th percentile) on the MCAT, including a 130 in CARS (98th percentile), and will be starting medical school this July. I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Pennsylvania, where I developed a strong foundation in the biological and physical sciences alongside hands-on research and clinical experience. I bring a positive, supportive mindset to every session and focus on working WITH each student's learning style, not against it. I specialize in supporting students with a weaker science foundation, non-STEM majors, non-traditional applicants, and neurodivergent learners. I specialize in all four MCAT sections, with particular strength in CARS, Biology/Biochemistry, and Chemistry/Physics. I also tutor General Biology, General Chemistry, Biochemistry, and college-level Physics. My goal is to help students build personalized strategies that raise scores and develop medical-school-ready study habits. I view MCAT prep as an opportunity to grow the skills students will rely on throughout their entire medical career, and I care deeply about empowering students to become confident, independent learners.

Breanne
BA Virginia Wesleyan College
1+ Years Tutoring

I will be graduating this Spring from Virginia Wesleyan University with double degrees in political science with a prelaw track and Hispanic studies. I am passionate about legal studies and have made it my mission to expand the prelaw community on my campus and beyond. I am president of the university's prelaw society and host an LSAT study group, leading dedicated individuals in their LSAT preparation. I am equally passionate about my work in Hispanic studies. I was enrolled in a dual-immersion program and began immersive Spanish education in elementary school. I took the AP Spanish test my freshman year of high school, and while at the university, I have tutored over 45 students in their Spanish classes. I have studied abroad in Spain and intend to continue expanding my academic passion for language and culture. Test-taking is a vital skill to master at both the high school and college levels. I have achieved high scores on the LSAT, ACT, AP Spanish, AP Human Geography, AP Psychology, and AP World History exams, and I hope to help other students achieve the same.

Andrew
BS Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University
9+ Years Tutoring

I'm a Crane Structural Engineer at a major defense contractor with a VA Mechanical Engineering FE/EIT. I've spent years tutoring math, physics, and engineering courses and use them everyday. I also graduated from Virginia Tech with a B.S. in Engineering Science and Mechanics and minors in Mathematics and Leadership Studies. I use humor and relatable situations to teach, turning difficult topics into easy concepts to remember. I've been the student at the bottom of the class before, so I know what it's like to be overwhelmed. I find the best fix for that is to use what students know to WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER. I've also tutored students with disabilities, tailoring my approach to meet unique learning needs with patience and creativity. I'm on the East Coast but keep a flexible schedule to ensure full availability for West Coast students. Whether you're local or four time zones away, I'm ready to help you reach your full potential. Hope to see you soon and best of luck with classes!

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. With 123 schools and two school districts across Virginia Beach serving over 65,000 students, Varsity Tutors connects students from all Virginia Beach schools—whether they attend public schools in Virginia Beach City Public Schools or other local districts. We work with students at every grade level and understand the specific curriculum and standards each school follows.

Virginia Beach students must master Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL) across core subjects, and personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to accelerate mastery of specific standards. Tutors work with students on the exact skills and content their schools emphasize, whether that's reading comprehension, algebra, science concepts, or writing—helping them build confidence before SOL assessments and improve performance in the classroom.

Virginia Beach students frequently seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), reading and writing skills, science (particularly biology and chemistry), and test preparation for SOL exams and the SAT/ACT. Many also benefit from tutoring in world languages, history, and study skills—subjects that build strong foundations for high school success and college readiness.

During the first session, a tutor will assess your student's current level, understand their specific challenges (whether that's keeping up with Virginia Beach's curriculum, preparing for SOL exams, or building confidence in a subject), and create a personalized plan. This foundation ensures every session afterward is focused on what your student actually needs to succeed.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 14.3:1 in Virginia Beach schools, many students benefit from one-on-one attention outside the classroom. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by giving your student dedicated time with an expert tutor who can focus entirely on their learning style, pace, and specific gaps—something that's difficult in a classroom setting with 14+ students.

Varsity Tutors offers flexible pricing based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. To get started, you'll share your student's needs and goals, and we'll connect you with a tutor who's a great fit. There's no long-term contract required—you can adjust your plan as your student progresses.

Yes. Many Virginia Beach students prepare for the SAT (scored 400-1600, with a national average around 1050) or ACT (scored 1-36, with a national average around 21). Tutors provide targeted test prep, content review, and strategy coaching to help students improve their scores and strengthen their college applications.

Many students show noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the subject, starting level, and frequency of sessions. For SOL exam preparation or standardized test prep, students often benefit from starting 8-12 weeks before the test date to allow time for skill-building and practice.
