NYU tutors excel across a wide range of subjects, from STEM fields like engineering, mathematics, and computer science to humanities including writing, history, and languages. Many also specialize in business, economics, and arts—reflecting NYU's diverse schools and programs. When you connect with a tutor, you can request someone with expertise in your specific course or major.

Yes. Because NYU tutors have navigated NYU's curriculum themselves, they understand the structure and expectations of specific courses and professors. Whether you're struggling with a core requirement, major-specific class, or challenging elective, you can get matched with a tutor who has taken similar courses and can provide targeted support.

An NYU tutor can offer perspective beyond just the material—they've succeeded in NYU's competitive environment and can share strategies for time management, navigating office hours, and connecting with professors. This insider knowledge, combined with personalized 1-on-1 instruction, helps you not just understand the content but thrive in the NYU academic community.

Your first session is a chance for you and your tutor to get to know each other and identify your specific needs. Whether you're preparing for an exam, working through challenging material, or looking to improve your grade in a particular class, your tutor will listen and create a personalized plan tailored to your goals and learning style.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who understand student life and can work around your schedule—whether that's midterms, late-night study sessions, or irregular class times. You can arrange sessions that fit your needs, making it easier to get support when you need it most.

Personalized 1-on-1 instruction from someone who has succeeded at NYU can accelerate your learning and help you achieve your academic goals more efficiently than studying alone.
