I am a graduate of the University of Notre Dame. I received my Bachelor of Science in Physics. Next fall, I will begin pursuing a Ph.D. in electrical engineering. Math and Physics make up the inner core of my expertise. However, I know what it takes to achieve high scores in all sections of standardized tests. I developed a passion for helping students achieve their academic goals after tutoring students in my mother's fifth grade classroom. This experience has also led me to tutor high school and college students. Therefore, I enjoy tutoring students of all ages and abilities. In my opinion, problem solving is a learned skill that is widely applicable in many areas of life. My tutoring philosophy is to develop students into better problem solvers while assisting them in particular courses or standardized tests. My hope is that by developing these fundamental problem solving skills they will eventually no longer need my help in future courses or standardized tests since they will have the necessary tools to succeed on their own.

Hi! I am Josie, and I am a first year medical student at Indiana University School of Medicine. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame in May 2025 where I studied neuroscience and Spanish. I am passionate about tutoring because I love to work with students to help them achieve their goals and prosper.

I like to help them understand why a certain process or mechanism works. I can't wait to get to know my students! :)

I am an incoming honors mathematics major at the University of Notre Dame. I've tutored students in middle school math, SAT reading/writing/math, and college physics. Coming from a larger family, I always had a support system of older siblings that were there if I had any questions about school. Now, I hope to be that person for any student looking for help, whether that student's questions arise from learning for school or for fun. My favorite subject to teach is SAT prep; I improved my score quite a bit with studying, so I know it's possible for you too! I'm also a firm believer in "brain breaks" within studying to give a couple minutes of mental stimulation before and after plunging into tougher material. Outside of my education, I use any spare time I can find to run for track (400m/800m) and play board games with family and friends.

As a teacher, I try to provide my students with numerous different methods for approaching a problem before giving them practice problems to work on. Most importantly, I strive to first understand my students' learning styles. After doing so, I shape my method of teaching to match their form of learning so that the students could better understand the topic at hand quickly.

As a student who came up through New Orleans Public schools I know firsthand the difference that a devoted teacher can make for a student. I was a decent student during elementary, middle, and high school, but I didn't work to my potential. The educational experience that changed my life was due to my displacement following Hurricane Katrina. I had the opportunity to take a physical science class in which I was constructively challenged. Through this class I discovered an intellectual curiosity that I didn't know I had. My teacher always spoke about how the tests became fun if you understood the material, and in the midst of difficulty found a reason to push on. It was refreshing to have an adult taking an interest in my academic achievement – someone who wanted me to exceed my own expectations.My passion to educate and to be the change in other students’ lives stems from my experiences with phenomenal teachers, tutors, and mentors. Teaching both middle school and high school courses has allowed me to become familiar with the opportunity gap that is affecting students across the country. Considering my own academic journey and how fortunate I've been, I don't merely feel compelled to help young students; I feel duty-bound. Helping to shape the minds and lives of young people is the least I can do to make a difference and honor those who have sacrificed on my behalf.

Before starting medical school in the Fall of 2021, I am taking time to explore my lifelong interest in teaching. I began tutoring at the University of Notre Dame, where I worked for three years as a teaching assistant in a Cell Biology laboratory course. There, I enjoyed helping my peers understand the larger picture developing through our weekly experiments. At Loyola University Chicago, I continued to tutor a variety of subjects while earning a Master of Arts in Medical Sciences.As a double major in biology and English, I like to build stories whenever I can. What does a molecule of glucose encounter while going through glycolysis? How does the human body process information from the world around it?

Frequently Asked Questions

Tutors who attended or graduated from University of Notre Dame bring both academic excellence and real-world experience. They've successfully navigated Notre Dame's rigorous curriculum, which means they understand what it takes to master challenging material. Beyond their degree, many have professional experience in their fields and have honed their teaching skills through working with students at various levels.

Alumni tutors bring insider knowledge of rigorous coursework and high academic standards. They've been through demanding classes themselves, so they know which concepts trip up students most and how to break them down effectively. Beyond subject expertise, they understand the mindset and work ethic needed for success—and can share strategies that helped them excel at a top university.

Notre Dame tutors work across a wide range of subjects including engineering, sciences, mathematics, business, humanities, and languages. Because Notre Dame offers specialized programs in fields like aerospace engineering, architecture, and theology, you can connect with tutors who have deep expertise in these areas. Whether you need help with core academic subjects or more specialized coursework, alumni tutors understand both foundational concepts and advanced applications.

Yes. Notre Dame alumni tutors have experience preparing for standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, and LSAT. They've taken these exams themselves and understand the strategies that lead to strong scores. They can help you identify weak areas, develop a study plan, and practice with realistic problems to build both confidence and performance.

Absolutely. Alumni tutors can be especially valuable for high school students preparing for college-level work. They can help strengthen foundational skills in core subjects, guide essay writing and research skills, and share insights about what college coursework actually demands. This preparation is particularly helpful if you're aiming for selective universities or challenging majors like engineering or pre-med.

One-on-one instruction allows a tutor to adapt completely to your learning style, pace, and specific goals. A Notre Dame tutor can focus entirely on your weak areas, ask questions to check your understanding, and adjust explanations in real-time. Research on learning shows that personalized instruction is significantly more effective than group settings because it targets exactly what you need—no time wasted on material you've already mastered.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who match your specific needs—whether that's subject area, academic level, or learning goals. You can share details about what you're working on, and we'll match you with a qualified Notre Dame alumnus tutor.
