Stephen
Calculus Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am currently an adjunct professor of economics at Fordham University in Manhattan. My degrees are from Rice University (PhD) and Yale University (BA) The PhD is in economics, and that was my major as an undergraduate. Teaching the subject I love is rewarding, working with students to promote their careers (e.g., letters of recommendation, mentoring internships, counseling) is doubly rewarding. I strongly believe in personal engagement with students, while always maintaining the correct standards of scholarship. I should add, finally, that I am also a market researcher for private clients for over 30 years and am currently focusing on urban/suburban mobility markets. I enjoy jogging in the outdoors (no crowded gyms for me) and make a real effort to stay in shape. I would look forward to helping you master the subject of economics!
Ankit
AP Statistics Tutor • +48 Subjects
I am Ankit Jajoo. I am enrolled in Duke University Class of 2022 studying neuroscience and computer science. STEM is my number one passion, while history is my number one interest. Humanities and STEM not only coexist, but work together often in life. While STEM provides the foundation for the future, humanities contributes to how it is used to advance humanity as a whole. I love biology, chemistry, and computers. It is so cool to see how all these tiny minute parts of the world interact to create you, me, and everything we touch. On the other hand, history is cool to see how societies interacted to create the present world. The past is never separate from us, but always influencing everything from the various countries to cities to the tiny villages all over the world. The world is a combination of all of this and it is my passion to understand the world. Other than just about education and information, I love teaching other people about stuff. I enjoy teaching all my friends some stuff, in return they teach me other stuff. Contrary to popular opinion, teaching is a two way street. I've learned a tremendous amount from students and I hope they learned a similar amount from me. Tutoring students in a field I enjoy such as STEM or history is a dream come true.

Emerson
AP Statistics Tutor • +57 Subjects
I am an undergraduate student at the University of Chicago, working towards a pre-med double major in Psychology and Biology (with a specialization in Neuroscience). Beginning in my early teens, I began working and volunteering as a tutor in a variety of environments: I began as a volunteer at a summer program for underprivileged children at the Learning and Tutoring Center of East Austin, and since I have worked as a private elementary school tutor, a private SAT-prep tutor, and a preschool tutor for the Neighborhood Schools Program in South Side Chicago. I have taken, and succeeded in, a broad range of Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) classes, and am familiar with the latest formats, question varieties, and scoring guidelines of these standardized tests, along with the SAT. My teaching philosophy is to go beyond "teaching to the test". Although test-taking skills are crucial for any assessment, I believe the most valuable thing a tutor can do is to enhance and help develop conceptual understanding in our clients. I believe that once a student understands something at the conceptual level, he or she will be much better prepared for the topic, not only in the specific test we are preparing for, but anywhere else it may come up. Memorizing words or equations might help somebody in the short term, but understanding why that word means what it means, or what an equation is actually depicting is worth the extra effort. Besides test-prep I think I can be a great help in writing and editing, as I have experience in everything from short, timed essays such as the SAT essay, to college essays, to research papers such as the IB Extended Essay. I am fully fluent in Spanish for anyone who wishes to communicate in or practice the language.
Charley
Calculus Tutor • +17 Subjects
I am a Vassar and Dartmouth educated woman with a passion for learning and for making learning fun. I believe in not only helping a student with the assignment at hand, but rather to teach and enforce tools and skills that will help each student for a lifetime. I also believe in customizing my lesson plans to each student rather than emphasizing a "one style fits all" approach. I am positive, energetic, and thrive on helping others succeed and reach their goals. Hobbies: swimming, writing, singing, art, books, reading, music
Olivia
Calculus Tutor • +55 Subjects
I'm passionate about guiding high schoolers through the college application process. The admissions process is probably one of the most confusing, anxiety-inducing experiences you'll have in high school, but I'm full of ideas for making the entire process as successful and stress-free as possible. I've successfully guided many students through every stage of admissions -- from figuring out where to apply and then staying organized and on-track, to "packaging" themselves and producing a perfect personal statement -- and I love witnessing them achieve their admissions dreams.
Caitlin
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +36 Subjects
I am a rising senior at Duke University who is Pre Med and majoring in Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. I was born and raised in Miami FL and went to public school until college (Sunset Elementary, GW Carver Middle and Coral Reef Senior High for those from Miami). I decided to start tutoring because I would not be on this path had I not had good teachers supporting me along the way. For that reason I want to be able to help others achieve their goals without academics being a huge hurdle.
James
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +55 Subjects
I am a graduate of SUNY University at Albany. I received my Bachelor of Science in Economics and Japanese with a minor in History in 2010. Since then (and even before as a sub) I have predominantly been teaching in the New York City public education system. I had worked as a substitute teaching assistant since 2008, moving between dozens of NYC public schools before finally settling in late 2011 at M.S. 216 George J. Ryan--an incredibly diverse middle school in Queens. During my tenure in the school system I have spent time teaching students from Pre-K to 12th grade, from all cultural background and socioeconomic statuses. Regardless of whom I have taught, I have always enjoyed it, partly because I often learn as much from my students as they learn from me. Regardless of the subject, I love teaching, and I find it to be one of the most rewarding and meaningful activities, which cliched as it may sound, really can make a difference in people's lives. Besides teaching, I am also keenly interested in the human body, specifically biomechanics, kinesiology, and rehabilitation through movement. I am currently enrolled in a Doctorate of Physical Therapy program at Washington University in St. Louis, which I should finish in 2018. Hobbies: art, books, sports, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Varsity Tutors connects students throughout Tallahassee with personalized 1-on-1 instruction, serving learners across all five school districts in the area. Whether your student attends a school in Leon County Schools, Gadsden County Schools, or any other local district, we can match them with a tutor who understands their specific curriculum and academic needs.
Personalized tutoring targets the exact standards and benchmarks your student needs to master in their grade level and subject. Tutors work with students on Florida-specific content, test preparation, and skill gaps—whether that's reading comprehension, math fluency, science inquiry, or writing standards. With a 17.4:1 student-teacher ratio in Tallahassee classrooms, 1-on-1 instruction provides the individualized attention that helps students catch up and stay on track with state requirements.
Tallahassee students seek tutoring across a wide range of subjects, including math (from elementary arithmetic through algebra and geometry), reading and writing, science, social studies, and test preparation for standardized assessments like the FSA and EOC exams. We also connect students with tutors for AP courses, SAT/ACT prep, and foreign language support. The specific subjects vary by grade level and individual student needs.
The first session is designed for the tutor and student to build rapport and identify learning goals. The tutor will assess your student's current level, understand specific challenges they're facing in their Tallahassee school, and discuss what success looks like. This foundation helps create a personalized plan that addresses your student's unique needs and fits with their school's curriculum and pace.
Absolutely. Tutors work alongside your student's classroom instruction, reinforcing concepts taught in their Tallahassee school and filling gaps in understanding. Whether your student needs help with a specific unit their teacher is covering, preparation for upcoming tests, or support with homework, personalized tutoring complements school-based learning and helps students build confidence in their abilities.
Many students show noticeable improvement within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the student's starting point, the subject, and how frequently they meet with their tutor. Regular, focused 1-on-1 instruction—combined with practice between sessions—accelerates learning. We recommend discussing realistic goals and expectations during your initial consultation so you know what to look for.
Varsity Tutors connects students with expert tutors who have strong subject knowledge and teaching experience. Tutors are vetted professionals who understand how to work with students at different learning levels and can adapt their teaching style to match each student's needs. Many have backgrounds in education, subject-matter expertise, or both.
Scheduling is highly flexible to fit your family's life. Whether your student needs tutoring after school, on weekends, or during the summer, we work with you to find times that work best. Tutors can adjust their availability based on your student's school schedule, extracurricular activities, and other commitments, making it easy to build tutoring into your routine.
