Jennessa

Calculus Tutor • +26 Subjects

I'm a student at BC. I've always loved to help others understand. When I was little I would have "class" and turn my younger siblings into my students. In elementary school, I began to receive great personal satisfaction from helping my classmates and friends with any homework they were confused about. Throughout high school I volunteered as a tutor since I enjoyed it so much and now I work as a part-time tutor and mentor to the children of newly-arrived immigrants in Boston. I have a very individualized approach to teaching, drawing on the interests, experiences, and style of learning of my students. My areas of speciality are both English and Spanish grammar, reading/writing, and fluency. I would love to help you/your child in any way I'm able!

Aaya

Applied Mathematics Tutor • +81 Subjects

As a former IB student, my love for knowledge runs deep. I majored in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, graduating in December 2015 with honors (BME honors and Science and Technology Honors program) and going on to earn a Master's degree in Management Information Systems from the same university in 2019. I am currently pursuing a Master of Engineering in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from the University of Illinois at Chicago and hope to start a career in data science and analytics. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and tutored throughout high school and college; I love seeing the light flash on in a student's eyes when they finally understand something they had been struggling with or when they easily solve a problem. I have tutored both young children as well as high school and college students, in just about every subject. I particularly enjoy language tutoring; I am fluent in Arabic and French and I love literature and poetry. I also love to tutor math and science subjects. My tutoring style is very much student-first; I listen and observe to determine the best approach for each individual student and what methods or strategies will be most helpful for you specifically. I am not averse to making a fool of myself with song or dance if it will help! I enjoy what I do and I want the students I work with to enjoy learning as well.

I am a special education teacher with eight years of experience. I routinely work with individuals with learning or behavioral difficulties, so making the necessary accommodations to aid in learning is second nature to me. This can be evidenced in tutoring - I am willing to do whatever it takes to help learners grow and learn! I have a dual Bachelor's degree in elementary/collaborative education from Jacksonville State University as well as a Master's degree and Education Specialist degree from the University of West Alabama.

I have over 9 years of experience tutoring students preparing for teacher certification exams and hold degrees in English and Education, as well as a technical writing certification. I enjoy helping students strengthen their reading comprehension so they can break down test questions and avoid common multiple-choice mistakes. I also guide students in using exam specifications to study strategically and focus on what is most likely to appear on the test. My goal is to help every student feel confident, prepared, and calm on test day. I would love to help you achieve success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Varsity Tutors connects students across Dothan's three school districts—including Dothan City Schools, Houston County Schools, and other local systems—with personalized tutoring. With 31 schools and over 11,700 students in the area, we work with learners at every grade level and school type, helping them succeed within their specific district's curriculum and standards.

Your first session is about understanding your learning goals and building a foundation for success. A tutor will assess your current level in the subject, identify specific areas where you need support, and create a personalized plan tailored to Alabama's standards and your school's expectations. This one-on-one approach ensures every session is focused on your unique needs rather than a generic curriculum.

Tutors in Dothan are familiar with Alabama's College and Career Ready Standards and how they're taught across local schools. Whether you're working on Alabama math standards, literacy benchmarks, or science competencies, personalized instruction targets the specific skills and concepts your teacher expects—giving you focused practice where you need it most rather than generic test prep.

Students in Dothan typically seek help with math (especially algebra and geometry), English/language arts, science, and test preparation for standardized assessments. With Dothan's average student-teacher ratio of 18.1:1, many students benefit from one-on-one attention in core subjects where classroom sizes can make it harder to get individualized feedback. Varsity Tutors also connects students with tutors for AP, honors courses, and college prep.

Many students see improvement within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the subject and how far behind they are. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction is particularly effective for catching students up because tutors can focus entirely on your child's gaps—no time spent on concepts they've already mastered. Starting sooner rather than later gives your child more time to build confidence and catch up before major assessments.

Yes. Varsity Tutors works with your family's schedule, whether that means sessions after school, on weekends, or during school breaks. Since Dothan students juggle school, activities, and other commitments, flexible scheduling ensures tutoring supports your life rather than complicating it. You can adjust frequency and timing based on what works best for your family.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have demonstrated expertise in their subject areas and experience working with students at your child's level. Many have backgrounds in education, subject matter mastery, or both. Each tutor is vetted to ensure they can deliver the personalized instruction your student needs to succeed in Dothan's schools.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor qualifications, and how frequently you'd like sessions. We work with families to find options that fit their budget, and many find that personalized tutoring is a worthwhile investment when it helps their student catch up, improve grades, or prepare for important assessments. Contact Varsity Tutors to discuss what works for your family's needs and budget.
