I am a current student at Yale University pursuing a degree in English. Since I was little, writing and storytelling has been one of my biggest passions. Though back then, I often told stories to my friends and family as though they were truth, once they helped me find the page I've had much, much more success. I have been tutoring kids since I was in high school, but I've also spent many hours working with kids on the baseball diamond as a coach, as well as as a camp counselor. My philosophy is that I know how hard and difficult (and sometimes annoying) high school English and History classes can be, and my goal is to try and bring a little fun back into the material while making sure we do what it takes to master your craft as a budding young writer, whether in a rhetorical analysis of Pride and Prejudice or in your CommonApp personal essay.

I am greatly passionate about (writing and literature), to help this student gain confidence in her learning abilities and get to a point where, instead of being discouraged, she could actually enjoy learning. I especially loved the moments when she reached a breakthrough in her understanding of a concept and was so happy that I had been able to use my knowledge to enhance her understanding and enjoyment of a topic. I tutored through out high school and continue to tutor in college as I help other students to realize their potential and achieve their goals. Hobbies: books, music, art, nature, reading, writing

I am a junior at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania studying Economics, Finance, and Business Analytics. For the last few years, I have been helping students with college application and test prep help, such as college essays, common app, and SAT/Subject SATs. I came from a high school where these resources for college and SAT prep were not as readily available, so I want to work towards making college more accessible by helping students with their application. Past students of mine have gotten into NYU, UMich, and Georgetown. Hobbies: art, travel, books, reading, writing, traveling, music, dancing, running

I have always had a passion for teaching, first fostering this interest as a teacher's aid in my school's Lower School and as a camp counselor for a number of years. Teaching and education continued to be an important part of my collegiate life as well. As far as hobbies are concerned, I love Photography and travel writing. My favorite author (not a travel writer) is Virginia Woolf. Hobbies: music, art, travel, books, photography, writing, reading

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Elizabeth's 41 schools with expert tutors. Whether your student attends a public school in the Elizabeth School District or another local school, we can match them with a tutor who understands New Jersey's curriculum standards and can support their specific academic goals.

Tutors working with Elizabeth students are familiar with New Jersey's academic standards and assessments, including state testing requirements and grade-level expectations. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify gaps in understanding and target instruction toward the specific standards your student needs to master, whether that's in math, language arts, science, or other subjects.

Elizabeth's average student-teacher ratio of 13.4:1 means classroom teachers often have limited time for individual attention. Personalized tutoring provides the focused, one-on-one support that research shows significantly boosts learning outcomes—giving your student the chance to ask questions, work at their own pace, and build confidence in areas where they're struggling.

Elizabeth students frequently seek support in math, English language arts, science, and standardized test preparation. We also connect students with tutors for ESL/ESOL support, which is particularly valuable in Elizabeth's diverse community. Whatever subject your student needs help with, we can match them with an expert tutor in that area.

The first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's academic strengths, challenges, and learning style. They'll assess what your student already knows, identify specific areas needing support, and develop a personalized plan aligned with their school's curriculum and your goals. This foundation helps tutors deliver targeted instruction from day one.

Absolutely. Tutors work with Elizabeth students to prepare for New Jersey state assessments, the SAT, ACT, AP exams, and other standardized tests. Personalized test prep focuses on your student's specific weak areas, test-taking strategies, and building the confidence needed to perform well—rather than generic prep that doesn't address individual needs.

Getting started is simple—tell us about your student's academic needs, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match them with an expert tutor who fits their learning style and subject area. You can then schedule personalized sessions at times that work for your family, and your tutor will begin supporting your student right away.

Tutors connected through Varsity Tutors are experts in their subject areas with proven teaching experience. They understand New Jersey's educational standards and know how to support learners at different levels—from students needing foundational help to advanced learners ready for enrichment. Each tutor is selected based on their ability to deliver effective, personalized instruction.
