I have been called a professor, a teacher, a tutor, and a coach; but I prefer to be known as an educator. In each of these roles that I've played what remains most important to me are the lessons that transcend the subject. While a passing grade or a high score is a laudable accomplishment, I believ...

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have attended or graduated from University at Buffalo, bringing both academic expertise and real-world experience. These tutors have successfully completed rigorous coursework across UB's strong programs in engineering, business, sciences, and humanities. Many hold advanced degrees or have pursued specialized training in their subject areas. Beyond credentials, they've demonstrated mastery of the material they teach through their own academic success at a competitive research institution.

Tutors who graduated from UB understand the rigor and expectations of higher education because they've lived it. They can share proven study strategies, time management techniques, and problem-solving approaches that worked for them. They're also familiar with the challenges students face—from balancing coursework to preparing for standardized tests—and can offer perspective based on their own academic journey. This insider knowledge helps them teach more effectively and motivate students by showing what's possible.

UB alumni tutors bring expertise across a wide range of subjects, reflecting the university's strength in STEM fields, business, and liberal arts. You can connect with tutors specializing in mathematics, engineering, chemistry, physics, computer science, economics, and writing. Many also tutor in test preparation (SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT) and help with college preparation. Because UB has robust programs across so many disciplines, you're likely to find an experienced tutor who matches your specific subject and learning needs.

Yes. Tutors who attended UB can provide valuable guidance on preparing for college-level academics. They understand what professors expect, how to write college essays, which study skills matter most, and how to succeed in rigorous courses. Whether you're working on test prep, building foundational skills, or getting ready for your first semester, connecting with someone who's already navigated the transition to college can make a real difference in your confidence and readiness.

Varsity Tutors considers your specific subject, learning goals, and schedule when connecting you with a tutor. When you request a tutor with a University at Buffalo background, we prioritize matching you with graduates or alumni who have expertise in the areas you need help with. The matching process ensures you get personalized 1-on-1 instruction from someone qualified not just by their education, but by their ability to help you succeed.

You can work with tutors from any background—Varsity Tutors connects you with qualified educators across many universities and experiences. However, if you specifically value learning from someone with a UB degree, you can request that when you sign up. Many students find that learning from an alumnus brings extra motivation and relevant perspective, but the most important factor is finding a tutor who's the right fit for your goals and learning style.

Absolutely. Many UB alumni have taken standardized tests themselves—whether the SAT, ACT, GRE, or GMAT—and can share strategies that helped them score well. They understand the test format, common stumbling blocks, and effective preparation methods. Beyond test strategies, they can help you build the foundational skills these exams measure, like reading comprehension, math problem-solving, and writing. Connecting with a tutor who's been through test prep can boost both your confidence and your score.
