Virginia's Standards of Learning assessments create real academic benchmarks for Woodlawn students at every grade level — and for families with ambitious goals, meeting those benchmarks is just the starting point. From algebra and geometry to reading comprehension and science, the SOL framework rewards students who go deeper than classroom instruction alone can take them, especially when SAT and ACT preparation enters the picture.
Each tutor matched through Varsity Tutors brings subject-specific expertise and, often, advanced degrees or teaching credentials. The first session focuses on assessing where your student stands and building a personalized plan around their goals — not a generic curriculum. Flexible scheduling around after-school activities, evenings, and weekends means consistent sessions are realistic even for busy households.

Amber
Calculus Tutor • +19 Subjects
I am very excited to have the chance to work with students preparing for the PSAT, the SAT, or the LSAT! While I'm originally from Connecticut, I attended college and law school in Buffalo, New York. While there, I worked for a test prep agency helping students prepare for the SAT and the LSAT. In 2003, I moved to Richmond. I worked with the Virginia Department of Taxation for 7 years doing policy work and assisting with the legislative process. In 2011, I began working for Bryant and Stratton College, where I taught students in the Paralegal Studies program. I loved helping my students prepare for new careers. I can't wait to work with you and help you succeed as well!

Kyle
AP Statistics Tutor • +48 Subjects
I am currently preparing to begin a Master's of Teaching program at VCU this fall and have continued to excel in the math and history courses I need to round out my teaching endorsements. Because my future career path focuses on teaching at the high school level, I have a preference for tutoring math (especially algebra through calculus) and history, along with writing and my current subject of philosophy. Besides my career motivations, I find that I stand out the most as a tutor in these areas because of my capability in clearly presenting complex material and my ability to grasp the diverse perspectives of my students. Hobbies: sports, reading, writing, books, music, art

David
Calculus Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a graduate of Tufts University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English as well as a minor in History. Since graduation, I have worked as a 7th grade Reading Language Arts teacher in Dallas Texas at a newly formed public all boys school. This has provided me with great experience and insight into how students best learn and how to create culturally responsive lessons that students will engage with. I am most passionate about English, Literature, History, and Spanish. In my experience, working to prepare students for state standardized tests has had the additional benefit of helping students to discover what they enjoy reading about. This increase in intrinsic motivation to read has had an important impact on struggling students. I am dedicated towards ensuring that students are provided with an education that increases their quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Getting started is simple—tell us about your student's needs, and we'll match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and goals. You can schedule a first session at a time that works for your family, and the tutor will work with you to create a personalized plan. Most families see their tutors begin making an impact within the first few sessions.
Virginia's SOL assessments set specific benchmarks in math, reading, science, and social studies at each grade level. Tutors work with students to master the exact content and skills tested on SOL exams, using targeted practice and personalized instruction to build confidence and competency. Whether your student needs support in a single subject or multiple areas, tutoring can help bridge gaps and prepare them for success on these important assessments.
Students in the Woodlawn area commonly seek tutoring in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and science—all core SOL subjects. We also work with students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as those needing support in foreign languages, history, and test preparation. Whatever your student's academic challenge, we can connect them with a tutor who specializes in that area.
The first session is an opportunity for the tutor and student to get to know each other and establish goals. The tutor will assess your student's current level, identify strengths and areas for growth, and discuss what success looks like for your family. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized instruction plan that addresses your student's specific needs and learning style.
Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We offer flexible scheduling and package options to fit different budgets and needs—whether your student needs weekly sessions or intensive test prep. Contact us to discuss what works best for your family, and we'll help you find a solution that fits your situation.
Varsity Tutors connects students 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 standardized assessments. Each tutor is carefully matched to your student's needs to ensure the best fit for learning.
One-on-one tutoring is highly effective for students who are falling behind because it provides personalized attention that addresses their specific gaps and learning style. Rather than keeping pace with a classroom, a tutor can slow down, reteach concepts, and build confidence at your student's own speed. Many students who start tutoring see noticeable improvement within a few weeks, especially when combined with consistent practice and effort.
Yes—we work with families in Woodlawn to find tutoring times that fit your schedule, whether that's after school, evenings, weekends, or other times that work best for you. Tutors offer flexible scheduling to accommodate sports, activities, and family commitments. We understand that busy families need convenience, and we're committed to making tutoring accessible for your household.
