Adrian

Middle School Math Tutor • +2 Subjects

I'm passionate about helping others succeed and that is why I engaged in tutoring. With a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Virginia and an MBA degree from Chicago Booth, I believe I bring a unique blend of perspectives and strategic thinking to the realm of tutoring. My journey as a tutor began during my own pursuit of excellence, as I prepared for standardized tests. I realized the pivotal role that skilled and passionate tutors can play in shaping students' academic success, and that is why I'm committed to paying forward the impact that tutoring had on my own educational journey by providing the best guidance I can provide to others. Having helped both high school students preparing for the SAT and adults tackling the GMAT, I've observed the transformational power of targeted instruction. What stands out for me is the engagement and focus that adult learners bring to their preparation. As a result, I find immense satisfaction in assisting them on their GMAT journey. I believe that understanding the individual needs of each student is paramount to tailoring effective teaching methods. I strive to imparting not just subject knowledge, but also study skills and problem-solving techniques that will serve students beyond the classroom. Subjects I tutor encompass a spectrum from mathematics, finance, business management and test-taking strategies. I'm excited to be a part of the Varsity Tutors community, and I look forward to working with you, students, to contribute my expertise and passion to guide you towards your goals.

Austin

AP Calculus BC Tutor • +24 Subjects

I am often asked by friends to help them with their math homework. I have spent countless hours teaching calculus to engineering, computer science, physics, and economics majors. Being one of seven children, I have been helping my sibling with math for as long as I can remember. I believe that a solid understanding of mathematics is crucial to success, and the demand for people with quantitative skills is only growing.

Iman

Expert Tutor

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.

Joel

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects

I am currently working on my Doctor of Pharmacy Degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, where I attained my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry. VCU is where I have held bioinorganic research positions as well as teaching positions. I acted as a teaching assistant in various chemistry and biology classes while studying and am currently an adjunct faculty teaching chemistry courses for the university. In addition to Varsity Tutors, I tutor for PCG education where I prepare students at J L Francis Elemetnary School for their mathematics SOLs. Throughout my different experiences with teaching and tutoring, I have found that each individual requires a different teaching style. Adjusting styles to accommodate different learning styles can be difficult at start, but overtime it helps the success of students to achieve their goals. Hobbies: art, books, outdoors, reading, music, writing

Briana

Calculus Tutor • +19 Subjects

I am most interested in improving the critical thinking and critical writing skills of students who will comprise the next generation of college graduates and working professionals. The ability to express oneself clearly through writing is an invaluable skill both within academia and the professional workforce. I believe it is my job to provide students with the necessary preparation and skills they will need to succeed in a college environment and beyond. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy reading fiction (with a special soft spot for sci-fi/fantasy), running and training for my next marathon, and experimenting with new recipes in my kitchen.

MARTHA

AP Statistics Tutor • +2 Subjects

I have spent my life teaching math, both as a classroom teacher and as a tutor, and I love it! My goal is always to make mathematics simple and understandable. I teach by asking questions, both to check for understanding and to allow the student to figure out the concept on his/her own. While my favorite topics are Statistics and Trigonometry, I love teaching all of Algebra too. I have taught both AP Statistics as well as IB SL. Nothing compares to seeing the look of understanding a math concept on a student's face! In addition, I have taught courses in, and tutored, SAT Prep for 35 years. While I do tutor both the math and Reading & Writing sections, I do believe that students can be helped more in the math section. Therefore, I choose to work with students who want to improve their math score more, but may still want some help with the Reading and Writing. Yes, the SAT has changed throughout the years but I have kept up with it and have seen more than 100 SAT tests. I am an expert in SAT test construction and offer many problem-solving strategies for success on the SAT test.

Linleyi

Middle School Math Tutor • +3 Subjects

I am a graduate of Georgetown University, holding a Master of Public Policy, a top 10 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) program nationally. Originally from China, I am now based in the US and have worked with researchers, NGOs, and international organizations to solve real-world problems. My subjects include GRE Quantitative, GRE, Math, Coding and Programming, and Chinese. Due to my practical experience, I believe that the most effective way to study is "learning by doing." I will create real-world scenarios and help students understand how to leverage their skills, thereby gaining a sense of accomplishment. Games, debates, and other interactive activities are also important for students to like the subject and improve their grades. I am confident that I have the capability and patience to be an amazing tutor. My Master's degree is data-heavy, and I accepted the rigorous training in advanced data analytics, statistical modeling, and programming. I was also a tutor for middle school students in Science and Math, meaning I can not only understand the difficult jargon, but also explain it in plain language. While pursuing my degree, I was a Chinese teaching assistant for undergraduates. By designing the curriculum independently, I helped students understand Chinese society from the economy, diplomacy, and family transformation. I am looking forward to meeting you all!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Chesapeake's 70 schools with personalized tutoring support. With over 40,000 students in the area across two school districts, we work with learners at every level—from elementary through high school—to supplement classroom instruction and help students succeed with Virginia's academic standards.

Virginia's SOL assessments require strong foundational skills in reading, math, science, and history. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students master these specific standards at their own pace, filling gaps that may exist in larger classroom settings. Tutors can focus on the exact concepts your student needs to strengthen, making SOL preparation more efficient and targeted.

Chesapeake's average student-teacher ratio is 14.5:1, which means teachers are managing significant classroom demands. While dedicated educators do their best, individual students sometimes need extra attention to work through challenging concepts. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by providing one-on-one focus that complements what's happening in the classroom.

Chesapeake students most frequently seek tutoring in math, English/reading, science, and test preparation for SOL exams and college entrance tests like the SAT and ACT. Many students also benefit from support in specific areas like algebra, geometry, writing skills, and AP exam preparation. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who specialize in whatever subject your student needs.

The first session is a chance for the tutor and student to get to know each other and identify specific learning goals. The tutor will assess your student's current understanding, learning style, and areas where they need the most support. From there, they'll develop a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and timeline.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We offer flexible scheduling to fit your family's needs—whether your student needs weekly sessions or intensive help before an exam or SOL test. Contact Varsity Tutors to discuss your student's specific needs and get personalized pricing information.

Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong academic backgrounds and proven teaching experience. Tutors are screened for subject expertise and the ability to work effectively with students one-on-one. Whether your student needs help with elementary fundamentals or advanced AP courses, we match them with someone qualified to help.

We can typically connect your student with a tutor within days. If you have an upcoming SOL exam, SAT/ACT test, or specific deadline, let us know and we'll prioritize finding the right match. The sooner you reach out, the sooner your student can start getting personalized support.
