Quadratic modeling, interpreting scatterplots, and manipulating complex equations are where most students lose points on SAT Math — not because the concepts are impossible, but because the phrasing is deliberately tricky. Tammy earned a 1550 composite and teaches students to decode what each questio...

I am currently a grad student in NC State's School of Education. I love education and working with folks of all ages to learn. I've been tutoring in some capacity for over 15 years. At first, I primarily taught swim lessons, and then, overtime, I branched out to a myriad of subjects from rock climbi...

I am passionate about biomedical engineering, and am endlessly amazed by intricacies of the world around us. My degrees are in engineering (BS-General Engineering from Harvey Mudd, MS- Mechanical Engineering, and PhD-Bioengineering from Georgia Tech), but I also love art and literature and linguisti...

I am an avid rower and bicyclist. I also greatly enjoy growing vegetables and playing basketball.

The SAT Math section rewards students who can move fluidly between algebra setups and strategic elimination — and Zhong's 1590 SAT means he's done exactly that under real testing conditions. His sociology coursework at Duke involves enough quantitative methods and data interpretation to keep those s...

Callie scored a 1560 SAT and uses that experience to zero in on the algebra, advanced math, and data analysis concepts that make up the bulk of the SAT Math section. She's especially effective at demystifying word problems — translating real-world scenarios into equations is a skill she practices da...

I'm a current junior at the College of William and Mary majoring in French and Francophone Studies and Linguistics. I have a history of high achievement and lots of on-the-job experience tutoring and teaching young people. My areas of expertise are French, Latin, linguistics, and English/language ar...

I am dedicated to meeting students where they are in order to find the best path forward.

Students who ace their math classes but underperform on the SAT often have a pacing problem, not a knowledge problem — and Kathleen's background teaching everything from pre-algebra through multivariable calculus means she can quickly pinpoint whether a student is slow because they're shaky on funda...

I am a Marshall Scholar and will begin graduate studies at the University of Cambridge in the fall.

The SAT Math section rewards students who can identify what a problem is really asking before they start calculating. Erinn, who earned a 1510 SAT composite, walks through each question type — linear models, quadratic setups, ratio and proportion traps — with an emphasis on recognizing patterns quic...

Scoring 1520 on the SAT, Beepul knows the math section inside out — from the no-calculator portion's emphasis on algebraic manipulation to the calculator section's data-interpretation questions. He teaches students to spot the fastest path to each answer, whether that means back-solving, plugging in...

I am earning dual Bachelors of Science from Duke University and Duke Kunshan University (located in Kunshan, Jiangsu, China) in Behavioral Science-- intended to graduate in 2023. As a former Varsity Tutors student myself, I can confidently say that our services not only allow students to be proud of...

I am a sophomore studying economics at Duke University. I took AP Calculus AB and AP Statistics my junior and senior years of high school respectively, and got 5's on both tests. I've done well in math classes my whole life and that trend has continued into college. Throughout my math career, reachi...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...
