No obligation. Takes ~1 minute.

I'm experienced in and passionate about (especially computer skills, Python, and math) with others. I try to convey the principles and thought process that are the basis of my own understanding of the subject, not just rules to follow or things to memorize. Being able to explain your answer is even more important than simply getting it right! My tutoring style is personalized, with plenty of examples and frequent knowledge checks to ensure I and my student(s) are in sync. In my spare time I enjoy cycling, skiing, woodworking, reading, and vacationing to Lake Superior.

I am a graduate of Stanford University, where I received a BS in Cognitive Science and an MS in Computer Science. After graduation, I spent a summer in Palestine, where I taught web development, app development, and entrepreneurship to a cohort of overenthusiastic high school students; now, I've moved halfway across the country from the Bay Area to the Twin Cities. From volunteering with organizations like Twin Cities Rise and The Mid-Continent Oceanographic Institute to checking out art institutions like the Walker and Mia, it's been such a wonderful time settling into this new place that I call home.
I am currently a senior at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, and I am double majoring in Genetics, Cell Biology, and Development and French. I am pre-med, so I do hope to go to medical school next year and am currently in the process of applying. I graduated from Hinsdale Central High School in 2012, and there I was a member of the National Honors Society which was my first experience with tutoring. I am currently a volunteer at the University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital, and I help patients and siblings with homework and reading there, as well.
I am a current veterinary student and lifelong lover of science, literature and learning. My background is primarily in biology and the life sciences, and in addition to my veterinary program, I also work as part of a research team in comparative oncology that develops treatments for cancer that benefit both humans and animals. I am passionate about increasing public understanding of science, and am happy to work with students of any level of science education.
I am an honors student at the University of Minnesota studying English and Journalism. I've been tutoring, teaching, and volunteering in schools for five years and specialize in language arts and standardized test preparation.
I am a rising senior at Pomona College, a small liberal arts college in California, majoring in Public Policy Analysis with a concentration in Economics and a minor in Mathematics. Born and raised just outside of Minneapolis, I am excited to be tutoring in the area. I've studied a variety of topics over the course of my academic career, but I feel especially confident in my knowledge base and tutoring ability in math, history, and standardized testing (especially the ACT).
I'm more likely to give an answer quickly when a teacher asks a question if I have a habit of properly attuned instincts. So, if I want your confidence to grow, I need to redirect the water your instincts flow through to the proper conduits of careful thinking.
I'm a student at the University of Minnesota studying Computer Science with a minor in music. I have a wide variety of experience in many math and science subjects and programming in various languages. I know exactly what it is like to be a student in the subjects I'm tutoring, to struggle with the material, to finally get to that point understand it all. I love learning and to help others out with their work when they're struggling to learn, and I'm excited to share my passions with you!
I'm dedicated to critical thought and careful, clear writing. In my independent written work, I focus on issues of political economy, critical theory, and the social and political impacts of technology. I recently also have begun to work on a science fiction novel. In tutoring, I hope to encourage students to approach writing and language with ease and technical competence. I have extensive experience in many academic areas, and can help develop skills for large research projects, short essays, standardized test taking, and everything in between. Nothing is too complex to be broken down clearly and mastered!
I'm passionate about both STEM subjects and the humanities, and love helping students translate their strengths in one area to another.
I am a supportive teacher but I always push my students to succeed. I don't teach based on what my students can already do, I teach based on where I know they are capable of going and what they are capable of doing. I also make sure to talk with them. No one knows how the students learn best more than the students themselves. I bring multiple approaches and vantage points, ready to hit every possible arena and hopefully perk the students' learning style at some point.
I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in education from the University of Minnesota and am working toward obtaining my K-6 elementary teaching license. During the day, I work full time as a reading tutor at a school in South Minneapolis. I enjoy basketball, video games, hiking, and reading. In addition to my undergraduate degree in finance, I also received my CFA Charter in 2019.
I am a current student at the University of St. Thomas, working towards my major of Computer Science and while I am proficient in a broad range of subjects I love math and science the most. Before university, I was able to travel with my family to a lot of places and meet a huge variety of people because of this I love meeting new people. I love hearing about their family dynamic or their group of friends at school and exchanging funny stories along the way.
I am a sophomore at the University of Minnesota majoring in Economics. I enjoy helping people learn because I believe true mastery of a subject is being able to teach it. My promise to the students I work with is to put in as much work as they do. I firmly believe that what you get out of something depends on what you put in, so whatever a student will put in I will give back.
I am an avid classical pianist, EMT, swimmer, and tinkerer. I love explaining things and paying forward my knowledge to those around me!
I am back in the United States, I work at Children's Defense Fund as the Youth Programs Associate. In my free time, I like to hike with my dog, read, and cook!
I am a Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I have had a lot of experience tutoring standardized prep through my own old tutoring non-profit. I believe in learning by doing, so we are going to be doing a lot of practice problems to learn all the best test taking methods!
I'm Emma! I'm a rising senior Classics major at Carleton College in Northfield, MN. I study Latin, Ancient Greek, and the histories associated with the two languages. Outside of class, I'm an RA, and I spend 6-8 hours a week tutoring and teaching college access courses in a nearby high school. In the future, I hope to teach high school Latin!
I am able to tutor a broad range of chemistry courses, from organic to physical to general chemistry, as well as math and physics classes. I can also help with test prep for the ACT, SAT, or GRE. I believe that asking questions is the basis of independent learning, so I strive to create an environment students feel that no question is too small to be asked. I love learning, and I hope to spark the joy of new understanding in my students!
I'm excited to work with students and to facilitate their learning and school engagement. I have graduated recently enough to remember what school and class are like. It's an exciting time in life, but it can bring challenges too, at any level of education. That's why I'm here to collaborate with any students who can benefit from my tutoring. I hope to show clarity, professionalism, and respect in helping students master their work and continue to feel eager about learning.
I am a software engineer and logistics specialist with a B.S. from the College of Science & Engineering at the University of Minnesota.
I am right now if not for the patient, determined, and creative teachers I had who not only helped me academically but also made me feel safe and connected. This is the kind of teacher I want to be, and I hope that I can make the kind of difference in my students’ lives that my teachers have made for me.
I'm a college student attending the University of Michigan and I'm majoring in chemistry and computer science. I have two years of extensive experience tutoring high schoolers in chemistry and all subjects of the SAT and ACT. I can also say that I understand completely how difficult the process of test prep and high school chemistry can be because I recently survived the whole process myself having taken IB chem and the ACT/SAT in the last 1-2 years and studying and prepping extensively for them. That being said, I'm always super eager not just to tutor students in those subjects, but also to offer the best advice and guidance I can in tackling those challenges as a high schooler and as someone planning for college. I believe it's super important as a tutor not just to spoon-feed answers but to teach how to problem-solve, so I take care to solidify our understanding of the methods to approach a problem. Most of all, I try to be as flexible and communicative as possible.
I am a new graduate of Pomona College, in Claremont, CA, where I studied Religion and Philosophy. While there, I wrote many papers of a wide variety, working on strong arguments, organization, and phrasing. I peer edited as well as volunteering with groups that mentored high school students, focusing on college admissions work, continuing and expanding my experiences from high school of tutoring for standardized testing. Additionally, I taught beginning violin to younger children.
I am currently a senior at Harvard College where I study chemistry, and I'll be attending Columbia Medical School next year. I have years of experience tutoring college students in math (mostly calculus) and chemistry including both general and organic chemistry. In addition, I am very familiar with all sections of the SAT and ACT having prepared several high school students for these tests. I believe that every student is capable of boosting his or her baseline score on these tests, so long as he or she works hard to get to know the format of the tests and the most popular types of questions. I tutor because I love seeing students develop a genuine passion for the subjects they once disliked (such as math and science), once they understand the power of these subjects and their applications to the real world.
I am available to tutor a range of middle school and high school subjects, but I am most excited about tutoring test prep. I remember how stressful preparing for college can be and I am eager to do my part in helping students fulfill their college goals. I believe that learning is a collaborative process and I am committed to being as actively involved in the student's learning as I can. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, going to the movies (I try to see each Oscar nominee before the ceremony every year.), and am a huge Michigan sports fan.
I am an undergraduate at Washington University in St. Louis majoring in Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology on the Premed track. I have two years worth of experience peer tutoring. I feel the most confident tutoring ACT preparation. During my time as a high school student, I worked from an ACT score of 25 to a 36 and developed many effective strategies that I will tailor to the students I tutor and understand the ins and outs of the test. In addition to working with high school peers, I have also enjoyed teaching private piano and violin lessons for elementary students. Helping people knock down their roadblocks is a passion of mine. Standardized tests and basic education may feel removed from our passions, but developing those foundations are essential for opening up opportunities and becoming capable of taking on our pursuits.
I am planning now to shift to a more educational career. Last year I worked at a small tutoring center, and I decided to branch out even more and work here.
I am a member of the Brown Class of 2018, pursuing a bachelors degree in mathematics. I graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in 2014. (I am able to help anyone with the boarding school admissions process.) Outside of academia, I pursue my passions in dance, travel, volunteering, reading and art. My tutoring subjects are mathematics (from elementary school to college level) and standardized testing (SAT, SAT subject tests, PSAT, and SSAT). I have tutored mainly high school students in the New York State Regents exams and AP Calculus, although I also have experience with students in middle and elementary school. Since I have been through many school systems, including public, private, studying abroad, and boarding school, I have learned many different techniques and can attack a problem from various angles. Ultimately, my teaching style is full of tips and tricks to break down complicated topics into simple, more understandable ideas.
I am currently pursuing a Bachelors of Science in Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. I am also a graduate of the high school International Baccalaureate Program. I have informal experience tutoring high school physics, but am most passionate about tutoring students for the ACT standardized test, having had extensive experience preparing for standardized tests throughout high school. I am eager to aid students in boosting their scores before their upcoming college applications, an important milestone in many students' lives. In my free time, I also enjoy playing tennis.
I'm a senior at Brown University in the Program of Liberal Medical Education (PLME). I have over three years of experience working with college application consulting with a specialty in BS/MD programs and experience in tutoring with the SAT, having scored a 2400. I'm excited to work with you and your family on making the most out of the time you have to prepare for test taking, and am also open to conversations about the university application experience.
I am happy to accommodate and work with learners on the spectrum.

Frequently Asked Questions
Score improvement depends on your starting point and study commitment, but most students see meaningful gains with personalized instruction focused on their weak areas. Many students improve by 5-10 points or more when working with a tutor who identifies specific patterns in their mistakes—whether that's timing issues on logic games, reading comprehension strategies, or logical reasoning question types. The key is targeted practice rather than just doing more problems.
Your first session focuses on understanding your current strengths and weaknesses. A tutor will likely review a recent practice test, discuss your target score and law school goals, and identify which sections (Logic Games, Logical Reasoning, or Reading Comprehension) need the most attention. This diagnostic approach helps create a personalized study plan rather than generic test prep.
Logic Games intimidates many test-takers, but it's the most learnable section with the right strategy. A tutor can teach you diagramming techniques, help you recognize game types quickly, and build speed through targeted practice. Many students struggle with timing rather than understanding, so a tutor can help you identify which game types to tackle first and which to skip strategically.
Most students benefit from taking 15-20 full practice tests under timed conditions leading up to test day, though quality matters more than quantity. A tutor can help you use these strategically—reviewing every mistake to understand why you missed it, not just moving on to the next test. Spacing out practice tests with focused drilling on weak areas yields better results than cramming tests together.
Reading Comprehension requires both active reading strategies and practice identifying question types. A tutor can teach you how to annotate passages efficiently, understand the author's main point versus supporting details, and answer inference questions without overthinking. Many students improve significantly by learning to read for structure rather than memorizing details, then practicing with timed passages.
Most students benefit from 3-4 months of consistent preparation, though this varies based on your starting score and target. Working with a tutor typically means more efficient study time—you're not wasting hours on strategies that don't work for you. A tutor can help you create a realistic timeline based on your diagnostic test score and help you stay accountable to your study schedule.
Test anxiety often stems from unfamiliarity with the format and uncertainty about strategy. A tutor helps you build confidence by explaining exactly how to approach each question type, practicing under timed conditions repeatedly, and developing a personalized pacing strategy. When you know what to expect and have a solid plan, anxiety naturally decreases.
Look for tutors with strong LSAT scores (typically 170+), experience teaching the test, and knowledge of different learning styles. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who understand not just the content but how to teach test-taking strategy and help you avoid common mistakes. The best tutors can explain why answer choices are right or wrong, not just which one to pick.
