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!

Sharon
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

Frequently Asked Questions
Medical Laboratory Science combines complex theory with hands-on technical skills, and students often struggle with the breadth of content—from microbiology and hematology to chemistry and immunology. Many find it difficult to connect abstract concepts like quality control and calibration procedures to their practical application in real labs. Additionally, the volume of memorization combined with the need for precision and accuracy can feel overwhelming. Personalized tutoring helps break down these interconnected topics into manageable pieces and reinforces the "why" behind procedures, not just the "how."
Medical Laboratory Science programs typically follow a structured pathway: introductory courses cover laboratory safety, basic microscopy, and fundamental specimen handling; intermediate courses dive into specific disciplines like hematology, chemistry, and microbiology; and advanced coursework includes immunohematology, specialized testing, and quality assurance. Clinical practicum components grow progressively more demanding, requiring students to apply theory in actual lab settings under supervision. Understanding where you are in this progression helps tutors focus on prerequisite gaps or advanced problem-solving relevant to your current stage.
The best tutors combine strong subject expertise—ideally with laboratory experience—with the ability to explain complex procedures clearly. Look for someone who understands both the theoretical framework (why a test works) and the practical details (how to troubleshoot when results don't match expectations). They should be comfortable with terminology, help you build clinical reasoning skills, and adapt explanations based on your learning style. A tutor experienced with standardized exams like the ASCP exam can also be invaluable if certification is on your horizon.
In a classroom, instructors must move at an average pace for 20-30+ students, which means topics that confuse you personally get limited attention. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction lets a tutor pause on concepts you find challenging—whether that's understanding normal vs. abnormal blood cell morphology or mastering troubleshooting logic—without worrying about holding back or rushing other students. Tutors can also tailor examples to your specific program requirements and use real case scenarios relevant to your coursework. This focused approach typically leads to faster comprehension and better retention of both conceptual understanding and procedural accuracy.
Yes. Tutors experienced with ASCP certification exams understand the format, question styles, and content priorities that the exam emphasizes. They can help you identify knowledge gaps across the full scope of laboratory disciplines, teach strategic test-taking approaches, and build confidence with timed practice questions. Since the ASCP exam tests both foundational knowledge and clinical application, a good tutor will focus on helping you move beyond memorization to true understanding—the key to answering application-level questions correctly.
With focused tutoring, students typically see measurable improvements in understanding difficult concepts, improved exam performance (usually 10-20% grade increases on midterms and finals), and greater confidence in clinical practicum settings. Beyond grades, you'll develop stronger clinical reasoning—the ability to understand why you're performing a test and what the results mean. Many students also gain the procedural precision and systematic troubleshooting skills needed to excel in actual lab work, which sets them up for success in internships and professional practice.
Start by reaching out to Varsity Tutors and sharing your current course level, specific topics where you're struggling, and your goals—whether that's improving your GPA, preparing for practicum, or studying for the ASCP exam. Varsity Tutors will connect you with a tutor whose expertise and teaching style match your needs. Most tutors can begin immediately and will work with your schedule, whether you need intensive help before an exam or ongoing support throughout your program.
