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.

Tony

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.

Charles

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Matthew

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Samuel

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. With 18 school districts and 135 schools across Glendale, students come from diverse educational backgrounds and curricula. Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who understand the specific standards, pacing, and expectations of Glendale's various districts—whether you're in Litchfield Elementary, Peoria Unified, or another local district.

Glendale's average student-teacher ratio of 18.2:1 means classroom teachers often have limited time for individual attention. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction fills that gap by giving your student focused support tailored to their specific learning pace and challenges—something that's difficult to provide in a larger classroom setting.

Tutors work with students on Arizona's state standards for reading, math, science, and other core subjects. Whether your student is preparing for state assessments, working toward grade-level proficiency, or advancing ahead, tutors align their instruction with Arizona's learning expectations to help students succeed.

The first session focuses on understanding your student's specific needs, learning style, and academic goals. The tutor will assess current skill levels, identify areas where your student needs support, and discuss what success looks like—whether that's improving a grade, building confidence, or mastering a particular skill.

Glendale students frequently seek support in math (especially algebra and geometry), reading comprehension, writing, and test preparation for state assessments and standardized tests. Science and foreign language support are also popular as students work toward graduation requirements and college readiness.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. Varsity Tutors offers flexible scheduling and package options to fit different budgets and needs. Contact us to discuss your student's specific needs and get a personalized quote for tutoring in Glendale.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have expertise in your student's subject and grade level, plus familiarity with Glendale's schools and Arizona standards. The matching process considers your student's learning style, schedule, and specific academic goals to find the right fit.

Many students show noticeable improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, though results depend on the subject, starting point, and frequency of sessions. Regular 1-on-1 instruction helps students build confidence and mastery, which typically translates to better grades and test performance over time.
