I frequently tutored my friends and peers throughout high school and continue to do so in my college courses.

I completed my Bachelor???s at the University of South Florida with an honors thesis on the current research in the field of linguistic relativity among bilinguals.

My goal is to become a Ph.D. researcher after I obtain my Certificate of Clinical Competence as a speech therapist.

I try to incorporate research-based techniques and methods into my tutoring whenever possible.

Jakobi
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +22 Subjects
I am currently applying for medical school and working towards a masters in public health. I have experience working with many different ages ranging from middle school to college level students. Most of my experience is with math and sciences as well as test prep for English ACT exams. I can tutor in math (pre calculus, trigonometry, algebra, geometry) sciences (biological sciences, chemistry, physics) and English. My favorite subject to tutor is algebra because it is like a puzzle, and who does not like a good puzzle? My teaching philosophy consists of learning about the students' interests and providing a way to relate their interests into the work they are doing so it can be more meaningful to them. I have found that the more a subject means to a student personally, the better they do in the subject. So, in this way it is possible to turn a subject weakness into a strength and passion.

I have tutored high school and middle school subjects, standardized test prep, and helped students build college applications in Westchester County, NY and Fairfield County, CT. I have tutored in a range of subjects but particularly enjoy helping students gain both the skills and confidence needed to excel at essay writing. In my free time, I like to read non-fiction in a variety of subjects, SCUBA dive, and have recently taken up knitting. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Kingsport's 26 schools with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Kingsport City Schools district or transfers between schools, we match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and can support their specific academic needs.
Kingsport students commonly seek help in math, English/language arts, and science—subjects that form the foundation for Tennessee state assessments and college readiness. We also work with students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as those needing support in foreign languages and AP courses. Tutors can address gaps in any subject to help students keep pace with local curriculum expectations.
Your first session is an opportunity for the tutor to assess your student's current level, understand their learning style, and identify specific areas where they need support. The tutor will ask about academic goals, any challenges in the classroom, and what's worked well in the past. This personalized approach ensures the tutoring plan is tailored to your student's needs from day one.
While Kingsport schools maintain an average student-teacher ratio of 14.2:1, personalized 1-on-1 instruction offers something classrooms can't: undivided attention focused entirely on your student's learning. Tutors can slow down, repeat concepts, adjust explanations, and provide immediate feedback—research shows this focused approach significantly accelerates learning compared to traditional classroom settings where teachers manage multiple students with different needs.
Absolutely. Tutors understand Tennessee's state standards and can help students master the specific skills and content required for grade-level success. Whether your student needs to strengthen foundational skills, prepare for state assessments, or advance ahead, personalized instruction targets the exact standards your student is working toward.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. Varsity Tutors works with families to create flexible tutoring plans that fit different budgets and schedules. We recommend starting with a conversation about your student's needs and goals so we can connect you with options that work for your family.
Yes. Personalized instruction with Varsity Tutors is completely flexible—sessions can be scheduled before school, after school, on weekends, or during breaks, whatever works best for your family. Whether your student has a packed extracurricular schedule or needs intensive support during a particular time of year, we can arrange tutoring that fits seamlessly into their routine.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and proven teaching ability. Tutors are vetted professionals who understand how to explain concepts clearly and adapt their teaching to different learning styles. When you connect with a tutor, you'll know their background and can be confident they're qualified to help your student succeed.
