The price you pay for personal instruction can vary depending on a variety of factors. For example, the expertise of your mentor, the type of material that you want to cover, and the timeline of sessions can all have an effect on the cost. No matter the situation, working with a mentor is a great investment.
A wide variety of independent research has demonstrated that working with a personal mentor can help both students who are struggling and high-achieving students make the most of their educational opportunities.

What's involved in finding a private tutor in Albuquerque?
The process to find a tutor in Albuquerque can be stressful and demand a great deal of your attention if you search on your own. Between reading tutor profiles, checking references, and interviewing candidates, you could lose a lot of time that would be better spent improving your knowledge.
If you attend an institution like the University of New Mexico, you know that time is at a premium. However, when you reach out to us, our Educational Directors learn about your needs, learning preferences, and the material you are studying. They can also make sure that you learn with a great private teacher in Albuquerque who is available at times that fit your schedule. In addition to getting assistance with common subjects like chemistry, literature, or history, you can choose to learn with someone who is able to help you hone study skills that are useful across all subjects.
It is important to mention that private instruction is valuable for all students. If you are doing well, working with a tutor can be a great way to challenge yourself so that you are more prepared for future academic challenges. Likewise, if you need help understanding complicated material, your mentor can go through key topics slowly to make sure that you fully comprehend the topic before moving on. Tutoring allows you to learn at your pace without having to adjust to the needs of other students.
Are there different types of tutoring available in Albuquerque?
There are tutors available to fit any need or situation. We can find mentors to fit a variety of academic needs from study skills to content learning.
We have a network of over 40,000 mentors with expertise in subjects ranging from kindergarten to graduate-level. If you attend a school like La Cueva High School, for example, you could work in a one-on-one setting with a tutor in Albuquerque. However, if your student is homeschooled, they can supplement your classes with small group learning sessions with an Albuquerque tutor. A private instructor can complement what you are teaching to make sure that your student learns as well as possible, whether they attend in-person school full-time, part-time, or are part of a learning pod. You can also invite a couple of friends to tutoring sessions if that would help you learn better.
In addition to mentors for academic subjects, we will also find assistance for those who need help with other skills. If you are preparing for a professional certification exam, you can cover the relevant skills and look over the test with an experienced instructor. Likewise, if you need help with a standardized test such as the LSAT or MCAT, a skilled tutor can help you develop test-taking strategies that help you make the most of your time on the exam and answer as many questions correctly as possible. No matter your learning needs, our Live Learning Platform provides an excellent virtual environment in which to communicate with your mentor. In addition to live video chat, tools like a shared document editor virtual whiteboard make for easy interactive learning. You can also use our online Learning Lab to access tests and diagnostic tools to help you and your mentor see where you need extra help and guide your learning plan.
What types of qualifications do tutors in Albuquerque have?
When you sign up to work with a tutor in Albuquerque, you can feel confident that you are learning from a qualified expert. Our extensive vetting process separates excellent teachers from less-qualified candidates.
The private teacher in Albuquerque that we connect you to must demonstrate thorough content knowledge, of course. However, they must also show that they have the ability to effectively communicate the ideas to you in ways that suit your learning preferences. The ability to modify sessions to accommodate changing situations is another key quality in a great mentor. No matter what you need from these sessions, we will find a tutor who can help you improve your skills in a helpful and methodical fashion.
Varsity Tutors believes that customized instruction can help any student make the most of their educational opportunities. Young students attending schools like Hubert H. Humphrey Elementary School can work with a supportive mentor who can tailor their instruction to the needs of developing learners. Likewise, you can get help with whatever subjects you need help with even if you are pursuing a graduate degree or professional certification. You or your student can learn in an environment devoted to academic success and skill development. We would love to help you get the registration process started. Contact one of our Educational Directors online or over the phone to ask any questions you might have and get started. We hope to hear from you soon!
The Albuquerque School System
Albuquerque, New Mexico, is the most populous city in the state, with a population of about 559,000. The Albuquerque greater metropolitan area has a population of nearly 910,000. The Albuquerque Public School (APS) district is one of the largest in the nation, providing educational services to nearly 100,000 students. In addition to the public and charter schools in the area, there are also many private and religious schools.
It can be challenging for parents to navigate such an extensive school system, especially if their child has unique learning needs or is struggling with their studies. Varsity Tutors helps parents connect with highly qualified Albuquerque tutors who can help children reach their academic potential.
Albuquerque students need to prepare for the ACT or SAT during their high school years, but they have several other standardized exams to prepare for throughout their academic careers. The New Mexico Standards-Based Assessment (NMSBA) is a statewide program with assessments given in reading, writing, social studies, math and science beginning in third grade. Exams are given each year through eighth grade. In high school, students take the New Mexico High School Standards Assessment (NMHSSA) and the New Mexico High School Competency Exam (NMHSCE). Students must pass the NMHSCE to graduate from high school.
Even students who attend the best schools may find themselves unsure of core academic concepts. A personal tutor can help your child fill any knowledge gaps and gain greater academic confidence.
As one of the largest school districts in the country, it is not surprising that many of the schools would be among the most highly ranked in the entire state. In fact, the top two schools in the state are in Albuquerque. To see how the best schools in the city compare to New Mexico’s overall averages, please review the table below.
Albuquerque High School Rankings
| High School | Albuquerque Ranking | State Ranking | AP Pass Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Albuquerque Institute of Math & Science | 1 | 1 | 84% |
| La Cueva High School | 2 | 2 | 72% |
| Cottonwood Classical Preparatory Academy | 3 | 7 | N/A |
| Early College Academy | 4 | 9 | 18% |
| Southwest Secondary Learning Center | 5 | 11 | N/A |
| Eldorado High School | 6 | 16 | 70% |
| College & Career High School | 7 | 18 | N/A |
| Sandia High School | 8 | 20 | 63% |

| Volcano Vista High School | 10 | 23 | 62% |
A professional tutor can help your child prepare for one of the many standardized exams required by the state of New Mexico, but parents may not realize that private tutoring can also be beneficial for other learning needs. If your child is struggling with a concept or seems bored with their regular instruction, they may find it easier to work with a tutor in a one-on-one setting.
With such a large student body, parents may be surprised that the student-to-teacher ratio in Albuquerque schools remain reasonable. Many classes have fewer than twenty students even in the largest schools. Regardless, teachers can give only so much attention to one student. Tutoring allows your student to get the individualized attention they deserve. Below you can see how the largest Albuquerque high schools compare in class size.
Albuquerque Student-to-Teacher Ratios
Atrisco Heritage Academy High School has a 17 1 student-teacher ratio.
Volcano Vista High School has a 19 1 student-teacher ratio.
Cibola High School has a 19 1 student-teacher ratio.
Eldorado High School has a 20 1 student-teacher ratio.
La Cueva High School has a 20 1 student-teacher ratio.
New Mexico State Average has a 15 1 student-teacher ratio.
While there are many options for parents of students in Albuquerque’s public school system, there are far fewer options when it comes to choosing a nearby university. In part, this is reflective of a lack of higher education institutions in the state. However, there are a few excellent options for those who wish to remain close to home for their college studies. Below you will find the top universities in the state.
Albuquerque University Rankings
| College | National Rank | Acceptance Rate |

Session Summaries by Tutors
The student needs to increase her attention span. After a half an hour she gets restless and her performance suffers. Today we reviewed the part of the assessment from last week that she finished modeling strategies for her to use to comprehend better. She then practiced them on her own to finish the test. She was able to perform the task with 80% accuracy.

The student wrote all his spelling test words and we discussed them together. Then he wrote the two sentences for his homework and worked on his handwriting.

The student worked on word problems that involved ratios, time, adding and subtracting with decimals, given an equation she had to correct the error, exponents and positive or negative outcomes, and order of operations. We also worked on science and the scientific methods, defining the components of experiments, and writing the observations. Excellent session.

This was my last day with the student, and we focused on math, specifically the speed subtraction tests. After looking over his tests, I saw that subtracting 9 from any number was usually left blank. I taught him the pattern where if you want to subtract 9 from any number first subtract 10 (which is easy to do in your head), and then just add 1. He was very successful with this strategy.

This session was mostly dedicated to precalculus. We looked at questions that asked about symmetry over the x axis, y axis, and the origin. We also looked at interpreting slopes with respect to real life situations. We then looked at questions in physics on vectors and how to determine resultants as well as breaking a vector into components. Overall, this session went well.

Today, I went over atomic number, mass number, and atomic mass and what they are. I did many problems with the student, and he understood how to do the problems. Next, I covered ions and how to tell which element takes on what charge. I did many problems on that, and he understood how to do the problems. Lastly, I had him name ionic compounds and molecular compounds, and he was able to do the problems easily.
