Adult Literacy Tutor • +9 Subjects

Teaching is my fourth career. I've learned my way through the first three by watching others and choosing how to adapt and apply their techniques to the specific purpose of my projects.In high school I was a STEM student before the term existed, but I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Vassar College with a major in Drama and a double minor in English and Art.Starting out on my career path in New York City, I took and taught theater crafts and began to develop prototype design skills while working in live theater, opera, dance, and television/video, and after contributing to Sesame Street, The Muppet Show, and The Muppet Movie, relocated to London through the Jim Henson companies to work on feature films such as Dark Crystal, Dreamchild, Labyrinth, and Little Shop of Horrors.After a time, being at the intersection of a script and its visualization excited me the most and led me to emulate my colleagues who were into concept creation by beginning to research and write story treatments for Labyrinth.Returning to the States to raise a family, I applied what I'd learned about production to the corporate world. My experience and imagination yoked to a client's vision and purpose allowed me to take on a variety of roles: creative director, writer, producer, graphic designer, and occasional project management.As in the past, I often worked in the trenches, this time learning the software that supported and enhanced our efforts. But overall, my focus was to communicate, through language and visual representation, how a project could be realized. I knew that the plan might grow and change as it progressed, so had to be mindful that collaboration, communication, and flexibility were key to adapting to change as we moved toward the client's goal.Although I returned to college and earned a Master's in English and a Certificate in Creative Writing, my progress in the real world still relies on both words and pictures. The more we engage our senses, the deeper will be our ability to convey our intentions to those with whom we live, work, and play.Therefore, I wish to find out how you learn best so that together we may craft a plan for your progress, whatever your goal. Please share your expectations and concerns. Your goal may seem hazy at the start, but as learning is about observing, trying, and sometimes failing, your vision will come into focus. We can course correct as we move forward together to ensure a resolution, even if the destination changes somewhat. That's life, isn't it?

College English Tutor • +25 Subjects

As a teacher, I have seen students first hand struggling to learn in a congested classroom setting. Even one in which there are a significantly reduced number of students in the room. This goes for both general education and special education students. I have also seen them flourish after being given extra one on one attention and time to learn concepts that he or she is struggling with. That is why I wanted to become a tutor in my spare time. I spend every day as an educator and not always able to give the extra attention to the students that require it the most. When tutoring, I am able to spend as much time as necessary on a concept, and use different methods to convey that concept to my students.

I am currently an upper elementary teacher through Teach For America, and I've passed all of my elementary certification exams, while working on finishing my teacher license this academic year from calumet college, St. Joseph. My undergraduate degree is in Economics from the University of Chicago, and I did a lot of statistics, too!I like having kids how to read, write, and do math. Because I loved doing those in school, and I'll be teaching that this up coming school year. To have a struggling reader all of a sudden love reading and attack hard words never before tried is the best feeling in the world.I believe education should be fun, loving, inviting, challenging, and organized.

Algebra Tutor • +18 Subjects

Hello Prospective Students!I was very lucky as a kid because my parents never held me back and they always helped me exceed expectations in all subject matters. I understand the value of private tutoring because my parents provided me with tutors whenever I needed it.As a result, I did extremely well on My SHSAT and attended the Bronx H.S of Science. With the help of my parents and tutors I was able to do very well on my SAT's and gain acceptance to some of the toughest Undergraduate institutions NYC had to offer (NYU, Macaulay Honors College,etc).Most recently I graduated a top-ranked MBA program, and am ready to give back some of the knowledge I have gained throughout the years to those that need it.Currently I am an Adjunct at CUNY Queens College,teaching Mathematics to graduate and undergraduate students. I also tutor High School students (all Math Regents exams, and Math SAT) and Junior High School students for the SHSAT math section.My hobbies include basketball, soccer, and Judo. Throughout High School I was nationally ranked in the sport of Judo and was an Academic All-American.I have competed nationally and internationally for the United States and have placed at tournaments such as the Junior Pan American games.I know what it takes to be a champion both on and off the mat. I am confident that I can help your children exceed their goals in the field of mathematics!

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.
