Victoria

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects

I am currently completing my medical degree at Boston University School of Medicine. I plan to train as an Emergency Medicine physician. I love working with kids, teens and adults to help break down concepts and build up confidence. My favorite subjects are math and physics, and I enjoy sharing tips and strategies for standardized tests like the SAT or MCAT. I focus on building strong foundations and understanding concepts before diving into solving problems. I help my students see that, with a little guidance, they can get themselves to the answer. Together, we can make your least favorite subjects fun! My hobbies include salsa dance and googling pictures of puppies.

Alexandra

12th Grade math Tutor • +42 Subjects

I'm a Math and French major at Brown University, and I've been tutoring for over three years. I have worked with young kids taking elementary-level math, middle school students taking Pre-Algebra and Algebra, high school students taking Pre-Calculus and Calculus, college students taking Calculus I/II and Linear Algebra -- and any level in between! Tutoring is one of my favorite activities, because every student I work with teaches me something new about my field. In addition to doing math and writing French poetry, I play the piano, contract bridge, soccer and tennis. I am also a passionate vegan, and hope to one day combine math and language into a field that draws on both the sciences and the humanities. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books

Alyna

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +26 Subjects

I am a graduate of Brown University, and I received my Bachelor of Arts in Classics and Evolutionary Biology. Throughout my undergraduate years, I tutored and mentored children from the local area, refugee children and adult immigrants. While living in Atlanta, I worked with the Fugees Family program tutoring and mentoring refugees, as well as worked with high school students from the Atlanta area. While I enjoy tutoring many subjects, I am most passionate about Classical and English Literature and Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. In my experiences assisting students with tough concepts, I always try to cater to the student's best learning style and work to make the material approachable, engaging and relevant. I believe that learning how to learn and loving to learn are critical skills and I hope to pass on this appreciation to my students. In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, reading, and making art.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Cranston's 30 schools with personalized tutoring support. Whether your student attends a school in the Cranston Public School District or another local district, we match them with tutors who understand Rhode Island's curriculum standards and can provide targeted help in their specific subject areas.

With nearly 11,000 students across Cranston, we see consistent demand for help in math, English language arts, and science—subjects that form the foundation for Rhode Island's state assessments. We also work with many students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as those needing support in foreign languages and AP courses.

While Cranston's average student-teacher ratio of 13.2:1 is solid, many students benefit from one-on-one instruction tailored to their specific learning style and pace. Personalized tutoring fills gaps that classroom instruction alone may not address, helping students master challenging concepts and build confidence in their abilities.

Your first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's learning goals, current challenges, and academic strengths. The tutor will assess where your student stands in their subject, discuss what they're working on in their Cranston school classes, and create a personalized plan to help them succeed.

Absolutely. Tutors who work with Cranston students are familiar with Rhode Island's academic standards and expectations across grade levels. This means they can help students prepare for state assessments, understand grade-level curriculum, and meet the benchmarks set by both the Cranston Public School District and other local districts.

Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. We recommend starting with a consultation to discuss your student's needs and get a personalized quote. Most families find that investing in targeted tutoring support—whether for test prep, subject mastery, or grade improvement—delivers strong returns on their student's academic progress.

We work to connect students with qualified tutors quickly, often within days of your initial request. Once matched, you'll have the flexibility to schedule sessions around your family's calendar and your student's school commitments in Cranston.

Tutors can work with students on one subject or multiple subjects, depending on your student's needs and the tutor's expertise. Many Cranston students benefit from focused help in a single challenging subject, while others prefer ongoing support across several areas like math and science.
