I'm more likely to give an answer quickly when a teacher asks a question if I have a habit of properly attuned instincts. So, if I want your confidence to grow, I need to redirect the water your instincts flow through to the proper conduits of careful thinking.

Statistics Tutor • +30 Subjects
I am an expert in psychology, reading, writing, and general scientific literacy. As a teacher and a tutor, I have worked with students ranging from children to doctoral degree candidates. I like tutoring students individually because it allows me to tailor my approach to each student in a way that I could never do in a classroom. Outside of my work, I enjoy listening to music, bicycling, cooking, and occasionally playing my trumpet.

Eric
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +27 Subjects
I am currently a freshman at Washington University in St. Louis majoring in computer science. In the future I plan on either working on cybersecurity or game design. While studying at Washington University, I am also on the football team and help watch over the weight room in the athletic complex. I am originally from Minnesota, and I have spent years working with kids ranging from 5th grade all the way up to high school. Whether it be tutoring or coaching, I find it so rewarding to see how much progress that anyone can make through the course of working hard and having fun doing it. When I tutor, I believe that being engaged is vital to learning. I am passionate about math and science, and love tutoring anyone in algebra and computer science. I enjoy solving logical puzzles, and I treat algebra the same way. I firmly believe that anyone can learn math and science, and have fun doing it. When I am not tutoring or studying, I enjoy football and lacrosse, as well as following all Minnesota teams.

Adam
Calculus Tutor • +32 Subjects
I am a class of 2015 graduate of Boston College. I have been brought to the world of tutoring because of my desire to help students through the stressful time of taking those big scary standardized tests. Both the ACT and the SAT gave me a large amount of anxiety when I was a junior in high school and I want to help other students through this process. This desire brought me to tutor kids in the local Boston high schools while I was in college and now I have taken my talents to the Twin Cities.

I am a graduate student from Houston, Texas. I will begin my Master's program in Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M beginning in January 2018. I've had previous tutoring experience in SAT Math and ACT Math and Science. I like to encourage students to fully understand the concepts that they are learning; you will always use some form of math at all points in life! Outside of school and studying, I enjoy watching and playing sports. Whether it's basketball, football, baseball, or any other sport, I love discussing games and news.

I am a multi-media artist based in MN. I earned a BA in Cinema and Media Studies from Carleton College in 2016. In addition, I completed my IB diploma in 2012 from the International School of Geneva, Switzerland. I am passionate about teaching. As an artist, I am always seeking creative solutions to problems. This is part of why I am drawn to teaching. The act of teaching/tutoring requires creativity and awareness. As a tutor, I think it's important for me to be able to adapt my teaching methods to match the learning styles of my students and find dynamic ways to engage students with the subject material.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Oakdale's 9 schools with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a local elementary, middle, or high school, we match them with tutors who understand the specific curriculum and academic expectations in the Oakdale area.
While Oakdale schools maintain a solid 15.2:1 student-teacher ratio, individual students still benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction that targets their specific learning gaps and pace. A tutor can focus entirely on your student's needs—whether that's filling foundational gaps, accelerating ahead, or preparing for standardized tests—in ways that classroom instruction alone cannot.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who are familiar with Minnesota's academic benchmarks and state testing requirements. Whether your student needs support with Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCAs), grade-level standards in math and reading, or preparation for advanced coursework, tutors tailor instruction to ensure students are meeting state expectations and building confidence in core subjects.
The first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's current level, learning style, and specific goals. They'll assess where your student is strong and where they need support, then develop a personalized plan to address those areas. This foundation ensures every subsequent session is focused and productive.
Oakdale students most frequently seek tutoring in math, reading/language arts, and test preparation for standardized assessments. However, Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors across all subjects—from science and social studies to foreign languages and advanced placement courses—so whatever your student needs, we can help.
Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets and schedules. To get a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs, we recommend connecting with our team to discuss what would work best for your family.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and proven teaching experience. Each tutor is selected based on their ability to work effectively with students at your child's level and in their specific subject area. We ensure a good match so your student gets instruction from someone who truly knows their material.
Many students see noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the subject, starting point, and frequency of sessions. Regular tutoring combined with practice between sessions helps reinforce learning and build momentum. We recommend discussing realistic goals with your tutor based on your student's specific situation.
