100% Tutor Satisfaction Guarantee
At Varsity Tutors, we're committed to connecting you to top tutors capable of delivering an outstanding experience. That's why we provide a 100% tutor satisfaction guarantee.
Varsity Tutors understands how difficult it can be to stay on top of your college studies, which is why we're happy to find you an experienced Brown University tutor who can work with you in a one-on-one setting. Regardless of what your major is, we can connect you with a personal instructor who can help you with all of your toughest courses. That way, you can work privately with someone who can teach you through personalized instruction, so you can do your best in your college course.
Read on to see how private tutoring can help you overcome your academic hurdles in challenging subjects like economics, physics, or anything else you're studying in college.
How can a college tutor near me at Brown University help me study?
College-level courses can be challenging for a lot of students. They can be more rigorous than high school lessons, and often require you to study more material in less time. If you're falling behind in your college classes, a Brown University tutor can help you work through your challenges.
Private lessons give you the chance to work with someone who's committed to helping you do your best in the classroom. You get the opportunity to dive deeper into the coursework than you would in most classroom lessons, and your tutor can draw upon multiple teaching styles to make the lessons as engaging as possible.
What's more, Brown University tutoring can help you with any of your college challenges. We can find you a professional instructor who can help you with that upcoming essay for English class, or we can set you up with someone who can review the material covered in your invertebrate zoology courses. We'll find you an academic mentor who can help you with any of the subjects you're currently struggling with.
One of the biggest advantages of Brown University tutoring is getting the chance to learn through custom-tailored instruction. Your academic mentor can design lessons that help you reach for specific goals. You can use private instruction as a way to supplement the material covered in your classroom lessons, or you can focus on key weaknesses that have been giving you problems. For example, if you're taking calculus and don't know how to graph differential equations, your tutor can devote extra time to covering this material with you. This gives you the opportunity to learn at your own pace, which can make the learning experience more comfortable and effective.
Can Brown University tutoring help me prepare for tests?
Studying with private instructors allows you to learn in a way that's best for you. There's no rigid curriculum to follow, which means you've got more control over how you want to study. If you need to prepare for any upcoming quizzes, tests, and final exams, a Brown University tutor can create a study program designed to help you with your assessments.
Furthermore, your instructor understands that there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to learning, which is why they're happy to incorporate different teaching styles into their lessons. This gives you the chance to study in a way that complements your preferred learning styles. If you're a visual learner, your mentor can incorporate more images into the lesson. You can prepare for physics using infographics, use colorful charts to help you learn the different types of bonds in chemistry, or use flowcharts to help you remember important information for your sociology or psychology exam.
While the primary goal of Brown University tutoring is to help you review course material, it's not the only benefit that comes from private lessons. Your instructor can also show you ways to sharpen your test-taking skills. You can learn how to improve your critical reading skills, so you're better equipped to identify important information from questions and multiple-choice answers.
Your mentor can teach you how to improve your time-management skills, so you're less likely to rush through an exam, or they can give you tips for mentally preparing for your upcoming tests. This can help you feel more positive about private lessons, and it can help prevent you from feeling stressed or overwhelmed when taking the test.
How can I find a college tutor near me at Brown University?
We understand that you probably have a busy schedule, which is why we're happy to announce that private lessons are as flexible as possible. We can set you up with an online or in-person tutor who can meet with you any time during the week that works for you. If you're looking to maximize convenience, check out the virtual tutoring sessions offered through our Live Learning Platform.
This lets you study from anywhere as long as you have internet access and a compatible computer, tablet, or mobile device. Online lessons also include several tools to enhance collaboration between you and your mentor. Video chat and a virtual whiteboard let you engage with your instructor in real-time, and the shared document editor makes it easy for you to work with your mentor to solve problems. Best of all, every virtual lesson is recorded and able to be viewed whenever you want.
When you're ready to get started, Varsity Tutors can find you a personal instructor who can help you with your college studies. Contact us today to speak with an educational consultant. We'll find you a college tutor at Brown University who can work with you in as little as 24 hours.

Recent Tutoring Session Notes
1. Wrote entire homily for Speech class. He paralleled some gospel story to the story of King Arthur. Only the hard copy is due the next day but the student doesn't have speech class (he has Spanish instead) that day.
2. Brought a green folder with brads and pockets. Supervised while the student made the dividers and then checked his Lit binder for all rough drafts that were supposed to be in there.
3. Study pack, Social Studies (most of it was done - he had left only a page's worth of the more reading-intensive work to do).

Today the student and I started with Chemistry and ended with Algebra 2. We did a 2 page worksheet on writing empirical formulas of compounds given a percent composition of the elements present. We then went on to work on his math assignment for the weekend, looking at the transformation of functions when multiplied by a coefficient or translated up/down or right/left. The student understood all of this very well and did many problems on his own. Overall a great session with much improvement and understanding.
