I am more passionate about the latter, and within the humanities I am most passionate about philosophy and English. The most important thing I've learned from those two fields (and the thing I'd most want to pass on to students) is how to find the right words for thoughts - this is important, not ju...

Diana
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +19 Subjects
I am a graduate of Stanford University. I received my BA in Philosophy, and continued with graduate studies at Brown University where I received my MA in philosophy and completed all my course requirements for a PhD in philosophy. After several adventurous decades including travel in Africa and Asia, building a house in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia, running a business designing and selling jewelry, and building alternative straw bale buildings on my property in the White Mountains of Arizona, I started tutoring math at Northland Pioneer College in Snowflake and Show Low, AZ. The past two years I have been spending most of my time in the Phoenix area where I am tutoring math, ranging from arithmetic to algebra to trig and calculus, with my main love and main focus being on algebra. What I love about algebra is the detective work---figuring out what needs to be done to solve a problem instead of just attacking it with a calculator. My tutoring style is to adapt my explanations to the needs of my students---there are always several ways to do any given problem, and I ask questions to determine which way will work best for an individual student. In my spare time, I am an artist, in ceramics and fused glass; and I love reading, mainly non-fiction in the area of personal growth and development.

Ansh
AP Chemistry Tutor • +5 Subjects
I have over two years of tutoring and teaching experience at Case Western Reserve University. I served as a Supplemental Instructor for ENGR 145 (Chemistry of Materials), where I created worksheets, led review sessions, and helped students develop strong conceptual foundations. I later worked as a Teaching Assistant for ENGR 210 (Circuits and Instrumentation), grading assignments and assisting students with hands-on circuit building and lab work. As a Biomedical Engineering major on the pre-med track, I specialize in tutoring pre-health and engineering courses, including General and Physical Chemistry, Math, Biology, Physics, and Anatomy and Physiology. I also provide MCAT preparation in the B/B, C/P, and P/S sections. My teaching approach focuses on clear explanations, active problem-solving, and adapting to each student's learning style. I strive to make challenging material approachable while helping students build confidence and independent learning skills.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Buckeye's 42 schools and all 6 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in the Buckeye Valley Unified District, Avondale Elementary, Litchfield Elementary, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their school's curriculum and academic expectations.
With an average student-teacher ratio of 20.6:1 in Buckeye schools, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. A tutor can provide the individualized attention and customized pacing that's difficult in larger classroom settings, helping your student master concepts more deeply and build confidence in their abilities.
Tutors work with students on Arizona's specific standards and benchmarks across math, English language arts, science, and social studies. They're familiar with what Arizona assessments expect and can help students develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills emphasized in state standards, whether your student is preparing for end-of-year assessments or building foundational skills.
During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current understanding, learning style, and specific challenges in their subject area. They'll discuss your goals—whether that's improving a grade, preparing for a test, or building long-term skills—and create a personalized plan tailored to your student's needs and Buckeye's curriculum requirements.
Students in Buckeye typically seek tutoring in math (especially algebra and geometry), English language arts (reading comprehension and writing), science, and test preparation for standardized assessments. We also support students in Spanish, history, and other subjects—tutors can help with any academic area where your student needs extra support.
Absolutely. Personalized tutoring is especially effective for students who are struggling because a tutor can identify exactly where learning gaps started and address them at the right pace. Rather than moving forward with incomplete understanding, your student gets targeted help to catch up, build confidence, and stay on track with their grade-level curriculum.
Yes, tutoring isn't just for students who are struggling—many advanced students in Buckeye use tutors to deepen their understanding, prepare for advanced placement courses, or explore topics beyond their regular classroom. A tutor can provide enrichment, challenge your student appropriately, and help them prepare for competitive academic opportunities.
Simply tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match them with a tutor who's a good fit, and you can schedule your first session at a time that works for your family. Most families see their student connect with a tutor within a few days of reaching out.
