Michael

Calculus Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a lifelong learner, teacher, and researcher in the field of physics. I received a PhD in Physics from the University of Michigan and a BS in Physics from Rice University. I have four years of physics teaching experience at the University of Michigan, primarily undergraduate laboratory courses with an emphasis on electromagnetism, circuits, waves, optics, and real-world applications of these and other physical phenomena. Many of these courses, including one I helped design, focused on helping non-STEM students master physics concepts that may be difficult to grasp in a standard classroom setting. I have tutored in a variety of subjects since high school, but most recently I have spent several years helping students understand concepts and succeed in coursework throughout a large variety of college-level physics topics, from basic mechanics to advanced electrodynamics and special relativity.

Nicole

Calculus Tutor • +48 Subjects

I am passionate about helping students. I believe that we all are learners and teachers. all of us are readers and writers. I have the ability to share my passion for learning with others, and one of my greatest strengths is building relationships with students which is the corner stone to successful learning and teaching. I believe that there are no bad kids or bad students, it's just that we all have different paths and ways of learning, we all have a different pace. As a teacher i strive to acknowledge that and find ways to support all students, adapting to their needs and paths, meeting them where they are at. It is my job to believe in every single student and help them believe in themselves. When I am not teaching or engaging with students, I like to read, walk, hike, travel, explore, work out, watch my favorite shows. I enjoy playing and watching ice hockey, and I try to go home to visit my family in Italy once a year.

Macklin

Statistics Graduate Level Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am 26 years old born and raised in Seattle Washington, University of British Columbia graduate and current 3rd year medical student. You may look at my accomplishments and assume I must have had a very consistent successful education process. This is not necessarily true, I struggled throughout high school with coursework and was slowly falling behind my peers. I was working very hard but was not getting the academic results that I wanted. I also reached out to academic tutors to help me understand core concepts in various subjects that my peers were not having any trouble with. Even during my undergraduate degree, I reached out to various academic tutors to give me an extra viewpoint on various difficult subjects and concepts. I understand what it is like to need extra help with coursework, I understand growing curious minds and the concepts that give many trouble because I have been through it. I am now a dean's list student at the top of my class in Medical school, and I can truly see how possible it is for any student to reach their academic goals no matter where you have come from. I believe the most intelligent individuals are the ones who can identify their weakness and seek help from others to succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students in Kentwood with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends school in the Kentwood area or is being homeschooled, we match them with tutors who understand Michigan's academic standards and can provide targeted instruction in the subjects where they need it most.

Michigan has specific grade-level expectations across math, reading, science, and social studies that students need to master. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students fill knowledge gaps and build confidence in these core areas. Tutors work at your student's pace to ensure they understand foundational concepts before moving forward, which is especially helpful for students who may be falling behind in a traditional classroom setting.

The first session is a chance for the tutor to understand your student's current level, learning style, and specific challenges. Whether your student is struggling with fractions, essay writing, or test anxiety, the tutor will assess where they are and create a personalized plan. This foundation helps ensure every session after that is focused and productive.

Kentwood students frequently seek support in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and test preparation for standardized assessments. We also work with students on science concepts and study skills. The subjects that matter most depend on your individual student's needs and grade level.

Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and how frequently your student meets with their tutor. We offer flexible scheduling to fit your family's budget and needs. Contact us to discuss your student's specific situation and get a personalized quote.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong backgrounds in their subject areas and experience working with students at various levels. Whether your student needs help with elementary math or high school chemistry, tutors are vetted to ensure they can provide effective, personalized instruction aligned with what Kentwood students are learning in school.

Yes, Varsity Tutors works with students preparing for standardized tests, including Michigan state assessments, SAT, ACT, and AP exams. Tutors help students build test-taking strategies, review content, and practice with real test questions to build confidence and improve scores.
