Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Jeffrey

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Tuscaloosa's 34 schools in both the Tuscaloosa City and County school districts. Whether your student attends a school in the city or county system, we match them with tutors who understand the local curriculum and academic standards they're working toward.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 17.2:1 in Tuscaloosa schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. Tutoring provides the individualized attention that larger classroom settings can't always offer, allowing tutors to focus entirely on your student's specific needs and learning pace.

Tutors working with Tuscaloosa students are familiar with Alabama's course standards and assessment requirements across subjects like math, English language arts, science, and social studies. They tailor instruction to help students master the specific skills and content standards they're learning in their Tuscaloosa schools, whether that's preparing for state assessments or strengthening foundational skills.

The first session is focused on getting to know your student—their learning style, current challenges, and academic goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands in their subject and identify the most important areas to focus on, then create a personalized plan to help them succeed in their Tuscaloosa school.

Tuscaloosa students work with tutors across a wide range of subjects including math (from elementary through calculus), English language arts, science, social studies, test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams), and foreign languages. We also support students preparing for specific Alabama assessments and those needing help with homework or skill-building in any subject area.

Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets and schedules. Contact us to discuss your student's specific needs and get pricing information tailored to your situation.

We consider your student's subject, grade level, learning style, and specific goals when connecting them with a tutor. Our matching process focuses on finding someone with expertise in what your student needs help with and a teaching approach that fits how they learn best.

Results depend on your student's starting point and goals, but many students see improved grades, stronger test scores, increased confidence, and a better understanding of challenging concepts. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction is proven to accelerate learning when students are actively engaged and working consistently with their tutor.
