I am in the midst of the medical school admissions process, but hopefully, it will conclude soon. I have a comprehensive understanding of subjects ranging from the social sciences to math. As a tutor, I want to instill confidence into my students. I want them to not only material itself, but I also want my students to find the best learning methods to be successful in their academic work and beyond.

AB Rice University
11+ Years Tutoring

I am an Arizona native. Upon graduating from Desert Mountain High School, I attended Rice University and I received my Bachelor of Arts in Kinesiology with a business focus. At Rice I was a student/athlete representing the Division I Owls in track and field. After several years experience voluntarily tutoring friends and family members I became a professional private tutor my junior year of college. My senior year, I took advantage of the opportunity to reach more students, creating a small private tutoring company in Houston in which I served as lead tutor and conducted all business operations. After graduating from college, I moved back to Arizona and am excited to have the opportunity to continue my passion of helping young men and women achieve academic excellence through tutoring. I have experience tutoring elementary through college-aged students in all academic disciplines. My primary areas of focus include: math, English, and standardized test prep. In my spare time I enjoy exercising, following sports, and spending time with friends and family.

I'm a graduate of Arizona State University with Barrett, the Honors College. I received my BSE in biomedical engineering in 2022 and I'll finish my education with an MS in 2023. I've tutored math (K-12) since 2016 with an emphasis on algebra and high school test prep concepts. It's never too early or too late to build foundational math skills. I believe a student at any age or level can benefit from practicing core skills while introducing logical and efficient solutions into their math repertoire!

Lindsey
BA Trinity University
10+ Years Tutoring

I am a recent graduate of Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas with a B.S. in Neuroscience cum laude. I am living in Austin until I begin medical school in July. Tutoring has always been a hobby of mine, and I continued my passion for teaching during college by being the Peer Tutor for a Statistics course and a Biology course at Trinity. Additionally, I tutored middle and high school students in the San Antonio community while working for a company similar to Varsity Tutoring. My favorite part of being a tutor is seeing the light-bulb moment happen for my students when they finally grasp a concept they???ve been struggling with. Usually with my students and as a student myself, I find that explaining concepts in a different way with language that is more understandable or connecting it to real-world experiences goes a long way. As a competitive swimmer for the past 15 years and the captain of my college team, I understand the desire students have for excelling in both the classroom and in their extracurricular activities and the struggle that can occur between balancing them. Besides tutoring, I enjoy traveling, spending time with my family and my dog, and cooking!

Evan
AB Pepperdine University
4+ Years Tutoring

Hello! My name is Evan Leshinskie, and I am a first-year law student at the University of Utah S.J Quinney School of Law. I recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from Pepperdine University with my Bachelor's of Arts in Economics. I tutor a wide range of subjects, but I have the most experience working with students in SAT, ACT, LSAT, and AP/college economics. I have a laid-back tutoring style, but I make sure to present the content in the most simplified way I can to ensure students understand the material through guided practice. I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors for over three years now, and I previously served as the course tutor for several of Pepperdine's upper-division economics courses. In my spare time, I love to watch movies and tv shows, exercise, and spend time with my dogs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Scottsdale is home to 27 school districts serving over 41,000 students across 89 schools, and Varsity Tutors connects students from all of them with personalized 1-on-1 instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Scottsdale Unified School District, Paradise Valley, or any other local district, tutors can tailor support to match your school's specific curriculum and expectations.

The first session is about understanding your student's goals, learning style, and current challenges. A tutor will assess where your student stands academically, discuss what they're working on in their Scottsdale school classes, and create a personalized plan to help them succeed. This foundation ensures every session after that is focused and effective.

Tutors are familiar with Arizona's educational standards and can align instruction to what your student needs to master in their grade level and subject. Whether it's Arizona's English Language Arts standards, math proficiency benchmarks, or science concepts, personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students build the skills they need to succeed on state assessments and in their classes.

Scottsdale students seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects—math and English are consistently popular, especially during transitions to new grade levels or when preparing for standardized tests. However, students also connect with tutors for science, history, foreign languages, test prep (SAT, ACT, AP exams), and specialized subjects like coding or music. The key is finding the right support for your student's specific needs.

While Scottsdale's average student-teacher ratio of 15:1 is strong, even in well-resourced classrooms, individual students benefit from personalized attention tailored to their unique learning pace and style. One-on-one instruction allows a tutor to focus entirely on your student's gaps, learning preferences, and goals—something that's difficult in a classroom setting. This targeted approach often accelerates progress and builds confidence faster.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions you choose. Varsity Tutors works with families to find flexible options that fit different budgets and schedules. We recommend discussing your specific needs and budget when connecting with a tutor, so you can find an arrangement that works for your family.

Yes. Scottsdale students work with tutors to prepare for SAT, ACT, AP exams, and Arizona state assessments. Test prep tutoring focuses on content mastery, test-taking strategies, time management, and practice with real exam formats. Personalized instruction helps identify weak areas and build the skills needed to perform confidently on test day.

Start by telling us about your student's needs, grade level, and goals. Varsity Tutors will match them with a tutor who fits their learning style and subject area. You can then schedule an initial session to see if it's a good fit. Most families find the process straightforward and are able to begin personalized instruction quickly.
