Sharon
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing
Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

I am passionate about teaching and tutoring and I thoroughly enjoy helping students gain an understanding and a drive for their studies.

Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.

Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Nampa's 21 schools and 8 school districts with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Nampa School District, Middleton-Umpqua, or another local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands Idaho's academic standards and local curriculum expectations.
With an average student-teacher ratio of 20.1:1 in Nampa schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 attention that classroom settings can't always provide. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who can focus entirely on their individual learning style, pace, and specific academic gaps—something that's difficult to achieve in larger classroom environments.
Tutors working with Nampa students are familiar with Idaho's academic standards across math, English language arts, science, and social studies. They tailor instruction to align with what your student's school expects, whether that's preparing for state assessments, mastering specific grade-level skills, or catching up after gaps in learning.
Nampa students typically seek help with algebra and geometry, where foundational gaps can compound over time, as well as English writing and reading comprehension. We also work with many elementary students on foundational math and reading skills, and high schoolers preparing for the SAT, ACT, and AP exams.
The first session is an opportunity 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, discuss any challenges they're facing, and create a personalized plan to address their needs—whether that's test prep, subject mastery, or building confidence in a particular area.
Many students see noticeable progress within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially when working on specific skills or test preparation. However, the timeline depends on your student's starting point, the subject, and how frequently they meet with their tutor. We recommend discussing realistic goals with your tutor during the first session.
Tutors can work with students on one subject or multiple subjects, depending on what works best for your student. Some students benefit from focused help in one area like algebra, while others prefer a tutor who can support them across math and science or English and history. You can discuss your preferences when connecting with a tutor.
Varsity Tutors works with students' schedules, whether they need sessions after school, on weekends, or during the summer. We understand that Nampa families juggle sports, activities, and other commitments, so tutors can often accommodate different times that work best for your student's routine.
