Jacob

Calculus Tutor • +33 Subjects

I am eager to help students thrive because I'm still very much a student myself, and will be for the foreseeable future. Though I enjoyed my time as an undergraduate student in Literature, and learned quite a bit during my time at Vanderbilt, there's still more work to be done. I am working towards a Master's degree, and will continue on from there.

I am happy to help students prepare for these exams. I enjoy students of all ages and am excited to tutor a wide range of subjects, although my first loves are math and English (especially grammar). I truly believe my sincere energy and enthusiasm can help make students excited about learning. I welcome questions and value honesty while tutoring. My personal interests include international education, traveling, hiking, camping, and Notre Dame football.

Rebecca

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects

I am a graduate of Northwestern University where I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Religious Studies. I am currently pursuing a masters degree in social work at the University of Chicago's School of Social Service Administration. I am passionate about tutoring because I want everyone to be able to perform academically at their highest possible level. I also think it is important that learning is not just for one assignment or one test, but rather that it sticks with you to build a solid foundation of knowledge and confidence that you can carry forward. My favorite subjects to tutor include English, SAT test preparation, math, and psychology. My approach to tutoring is to meet the student where they're at and go from there. I find that this way we can build a productive tutoring relationship where I can help individualize learning to each person's particular learning style. Outside of academic interests, I enjoy cooking, being with friends and family, traveling the world, and looking as ridiculous as possible doing Zumba.

Karishma

Calculus Tutor • +32 Subjects

I am very dedicated to helping students excel in school and in helping them develop study methods and styles that work best for them and that will serve them throughout school. I previously tutored with Boys Hope Girls Hope in Evanston, IL. I tutored middle and high school students in Spanish and English, and I was able to help them develop study strategies such as using flashcards or translating a sentence they had spoken aloud that day in their heads for extra language practice. I am very excited to be able to tutor again and to work with students. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a previously struggling student excel and to have helped them improve along the way. Hobbies: reading, music, running, art, books, dancing, writing

I am a current law student at Washington University in St. Louis and also graduated summa cum laude from their undergraduate program in 2014. I have dual citizenship with the US and Chile, and my hispanic roots have always been very important to me. I grew up speaking Spanish but have also dedicated a significant portion of my academic studies to Spanish language and literature as well. I am passionate about helping others reach their goals and take pride in helping make the Spanish language and various Spanish-speaking cultures more accessible to anyone willing to learn.

Margot

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a student at Boston College studying Economics and English. I have an excellent academic record, haven taken 14 AP courses throughout high school, and have preformed well on many standardized exams. I strive to help other students to do the same! I have three years of experience tutoring peers at high school, college, and privately, primarily in English, Math, and SAT prep. Though I tutor a range of subjects, I am most passionate about helping students conquer Standardized Tests (specifically the reading and writing sections) and English. I want to help students excel on Standardized Exams so they can pursue their higher education goals. I direct my tutoring towards identifying students' learning methods and catering to those to establish continued engagement in doing so, I hope to foster a love of learning similar to mine. Outside of tutoring and school, I enjoy reading and believe that reading consistently is the key to succeeding in writing and preforming well on Standardized Exams. My love for creative writing has also led me to draft a novel which I am continuing to edit, and as an Assistant Director of the Campus Activities Board at Boston College I plan live music-focused events to engage students on campus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students across Champaign's four school districts—including Unit 4, Unit 2, Mahomet-Seymour, and others—with personalized instruction. Whether your student attends a school in central Champaign or the surrounding areas, we can match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and school expectations.

With an average student-teacher ratio of 13.8:1 across Champaign's 33 schools, many students benefit from one-on-one attention to fill gaps and accelerate learning. Personalized tutoring provides the individualized focus that busy classroom teachers simply can't always provide, helping students master challenging concepts at their own pace.

Champaign students typically seek help with math, science, and English—especially during transitions between grade levels and before standardized testing. Tutors also work with students on test prep for Illinois assessments, AP exams, and college entrance exams, as well as foundational skills like reading and writing.

Most students get matched with a tutor within a few days of connecting with Varsity Tutors. We take time to understand your student's specific needs, learning style, and goals—then connect them with someone who's a great fit. Your first session can typically be scheduled within a week.

Yes, tutors who work with Champaign students are familiar with Illinois State Standards and the curriculum used across local school districts. This means they can help your student meet grade-level expectations, prepare for Illinois assessments, and build skills aligned with what schools are teaching.

The first session is about getting to know your student—their strengths, challenges, learning style, and goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands academically, answer any questions, and create a personalized plan for moving forward. There's no pressure; it's a chance to build confidence and trust.

Pricing varies based on the subject, tutor expertise, and how frequently your student needs help. We offer flexible options to fit different budgets, and we're happy to discuss what works best for your family. Contact us for a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs.

You'll see progress through improved grades, stronger test scores, and increased confidence—often within the first few weeks.
