Helping students has always felt deeply personal to me. I know what it's like to struggle with a subject and how much of a difference the right guidance can make. That's what drives me, not just to explain the material, but to meet students where they are, and help them build confidence along the wa...

Tamara

Expert Tutor

I received my MS in math from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and my BS in math from Augusta University. I was pursuing a PhD in math at UTK so I have 5 years of teaching experience on top of 4 years of tutoring experience in undergrad. I love helping students one-on-one and that's why I tutored middle and high schoolers privately while also working at the math lab at AU tutoring adults. I tutor any math class from middle school to undergraduate, and I also excel with test prep (SAT, GRE, etc.). My approach to tutoring is helping students understand not only how you complete a problem but why we complete the problem that way; I also try to instill academic confidence in my students.

I graduated from University of Houston with a bachelors in business management and entrepreneurship, and a minor in French. Throughout high school, I was a teacher's assistant for math and English and a peer mentor for students in all subjects. Since graduating, I have tutored private clients for standardized tests, such as the ACT and GRE. In addition to one-on-one tutoring, I have also tutored small groups of kids around my neighborhood. I enjoy helping students improve in all academic subjects and I am adept at creating study materials in a variety of subjects to improve students test scores and GPAs. As an enthusiastic tutor, I am dedicated to making sure that all of my sessions are enjoyable, engaging, and interesting. In my free time, I enjoy reading, playing volleyball, and spending time with my puppy outdoors. I am very excited to be a tutor and I look forward to helping students come to love the act of learning!

Upon graduation from New York University (Philosophy), I taught the verbal section of the MCAT to prospective medical students in my home state of Virginia, after which I moved to New Orleans to teach Middle School Math and Science in low-income communities as an AmeriCorps member. I now tutor a broad range of subjects, specializing in standardized admissions tests through graduate levels. I am a firm proponent of education and its role in a fulfilling life. I try to impart this perspective to all of my students. Let's get to work!

Renee

Expert Tutor

Hello! I recently graduated with a BA in Liberal Arts from Sarah Lawrence College. I have a passion for reading, writing, and film and I am currently taking an online graduate course in TV writing with UCLA. The subjects I tutor in include essay editing, writing, and reading comprehension (i.e. anything pertaining to writing and english.) My tutoring style is collaboration based and tailored to each student's individual learning style. I have first hand experience with how frustrating it can be to get lost in a classroom and feel like you're falling behind, because you don't learn or retain information the same way as your peers, so I find it's the most beneficial to understand each student's relationship with the subject material and developing a plan from there, opposed to instilling a generalized "one size fits all" agenda.

Wayne

Expert Tutor

I received my B.S. in Biology from Rhodes College, my M.S. in Biology from Alabama in Birmingham, and a PhD in Anatomy and Physiology from Duke University. My teaching over the last few years has focused on Histology (MicroAnatomy) and Physiology. Teaching modern histology and physiology requires a strong understanding of cell and molecular biology, and I incorporate these areas into my current teaching. I have also taught Genetics, Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, and Introductory Biology. During my 25 years at the University of Puget Sound, I continually served on our Health Professions Advising Committee, and was chair of this committee for three years. We advised students in all aspects of their applications for professional schools in diverse areas of health care professions, such as medical and dental school, among other professional health-related graduate programs. As chair of the committee I was solely responsible for writing committee letters for all of our students who applied through our committee. As a science educator, I serve my students, and do my utmost to provide them with a modern education in biology. I sincerely love teaching, which for me includes preparation through literature research, and organization and delivery of the best information. I enjoy all aspects of teaching, but most especially the reward of seeing my students learn, and secondarily, my learning of my field and pedagogy, through my efforts as a teacher.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Lafayette's 38 schools and 5 school districts with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Lafayette Parish School System, Acadian Charter Schools, or another local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and academic needs.

Tutors work directly with your student's coursework and Louisiana's academic standards, whether that's mastering grade-level math concepts, building reading comprehension skills, or preparing for state assessments. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to target exactly where your student is struggling and build confidence in the specific areas your school emphasizes.

While Lafayette's average student-teacher ratio of 19.2:1 is reasonable, it still means individual students can get lost in the shuffle, especially in subjects like math or writing where personalized feedback matters most. One-on-one tutoring fills that gap by giving your student dedicated attention to work through challenging concepts at their own pace, something that's difficult to achieve in a classroom setting.

The tutor will start by understanding your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals—whether that's improving grades in a particular class, preparing for a state test, or building foundational skills. They'll assess what's working and what isn't, then create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and Lafayette's local curriculum.

Math and English are the most common subjects, especially as students progress through middle and high school where concepts become more abstract. Science, Louisiana History, test prep (for ACT and state assessments), and foreign languages are also popular. Whatever subject your student needs support in, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an expert tutor.

Tutors are experienced educators and subject matter experts who understand how to teach effectively one-on-one. They're familiar with Louisiana's curriculum standards and know how to explain concepts in ways that click for different learners. All tutors go through a vetting process to ensure they can deliver quality instruction for students in Lafayette.

Tutoring schedules work around your family's life—whether your student needs help after school, on weekends, or during summer break. You can adjust frequency and timing based on what works best, whether that's weekly sessions or intensive help before a big test or assignment deadline.

Contact Varsity Tutors and let us know your student's grade level, subject, and what they need help with. We'll match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and academic goals, and you can start personalized instruction right away. Most families see their student more engaged and confident within the first few sessions.
