Taylor

Anatomy Tutor • +34 Subjects

I love working with kids and I really enjoy helping someone to understand something in a new manner. I think that learning some of the subjects can be boring but I know how to liven the material up in a manner that is relatable/ easier to understand. I have been a camp counselor in the past so I have some experience working with kids; I am very patient and I was always someone in school that could turn a long tedious problem/ information into something that I remembered forever.

Carroll

Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +17 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington, with both a BA in English and a MA in Humanities, in the areas of Writing, Literature and History. I've taught at several universities overseas and in the United States. I've primarily taught Composition and Literature at the university level and have also taught English in High Schools and Middle Schools in the US, in Texas. For two years I taught English to Chinese students on an online platform, so I'm used to delivering course work in that format.I enjoy teaching Writing and helping students to prepare for their future academic careers by giving them a tool they can use for future essays, and exams.I've had a number of students return and thank me for helping them to be better prepared for their academic courses, allowing them to make better grades and be more confident in their abilities.Learning is something that never stops, we learn while in school, but we'll continue to learn about people and cultures around us as we interact with the world.

ACCUPLACER ESL - Reading Skills Tutor • +26 Subjects

My interest in education and teaching began when I first started nannying when I was 14 years old helping kids with homework and continues to this very day with a love of academia, science and self improvement. I also have several years of experience in working with special needs children and adults, which I believe gives me a special understanding of all types of challenges and the patience required.I am in the process of earning a degree in Neuroscience at the University of Cincinnati.My favorite subjects are definitely science-based, though I also thoroughly enjoy and have a lot of experience in writing and reading comprehension.I love the challenges of learning and helping others understand new things.I am committed to helping others fully understand the academic challenges they need help with and finding a way to assist in a way that makes learning fun and easy, with a focus on a no-shame policy of being confident in your abilities and unafraid to ask for help. I am excited for this opportunity to help others achieve!

Jerry

ACT Writing Tutor • +40 Subjects

I graduated from Queens College with a degree in Sociology. I am currently in the process of applying to graduate programs to pursue my own dreams of an MBA. I have been a teacher/tutor for SAT, ACT, TOEFL, IELTS, GMAT, AP US History, and various other subjects for over four years. My favorite subject to teach is AP US History because I have the ability to make the stories of our past fun and interesting. I constantly update my teaching materials and methodology with each passing year to help my students. I enjoy teaching and seeing my students learn new things. When my students are able to earn better scores the moment is very rewarding to me. If there is a problem that you do not understand, I will help you understand it fully. Outside of academic I have a passion for sports, running, and music.

Algebra Tutor • +17 Subjects

I started my engineering degree at a small private university (Western New England University), and I am currently a senior finishing my mechanical engineering degree at University of South Florida Tampa. After completion of this I plan to apply to law school to become a patent attorney.I have previous experience tutoring in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and Pre-calculus and I am currently certified to tutor in a wide variety of math up through Calculus 2. Furthermore I am certified to tutor in and a variety of physics and mechanical engineering classes.Calculus would be my favorite subject to tutor in because this is the core foundation of engineering problem solving. However, I enjoy a wide variety of different disciplines of math and physics.Everyone learns differently and traditional environments are not always ideal for all students. My approach is to identify a students strengths. Furthermore, I like to find out what a students current understanding of a topic is and expand upon the topic from this point.Outside of school I enjoy camping, backpacking, outdoors, concerts, comedy, and when not in Florida and back home, snowboarding.

AP Biology Tutor • +19 Subjects

Throughout college and my two years as a math teacher, I found that there isn't one best teaching method. Instead, each student is unique and this reflects in their learning style. A good teacher will be able to change strategies to accommodate for differences in learning styles. I hope to be the best teacher that I can be by listening to my students and adjust my style of teaching to fit the student's needs.

Education is the most important thing; we can loose everything, but nobody can take what we have learned. We can learn from books or from life and all that information will be useful someday. Education is what makes us different from everyone else and takes the veil that covered our eyes and shows us the truth. It can be painful sometimes, but it is better than to live in obscurity.

Paula

Emergency Medicine Tutor • +9 Subjects

Hello! I am Paula Grech. I am a working RN and EMT-P (paramedic). I graduated from my nursing program with honors.I love teaching and coaching students using creative methods. You won't get a boring PowerPoint presentation from me! Do you like storytelling, videos, and podcasts? Do you like mnemonics and drawings? I do, too!I find the best way to remember what I have learned (in addition to practicing it) is to teach it. I am a new hire preceptor where I work. I instruct and mentor nursing and EMT/paramedic students in pharmacology, pathophysiology, anatomy, and physiology using a variety of methods including live online explanation and demonstration, mnemonics, illustrations, online video, and podcasts/audio.In addition, I can teach you study methods so you can learn in line at the grocery store and reinforce the information in your sleep! All the techniques I teach I used myself with great success.I passed National Registry at the paramedic level twice (you may retest instead of completing CEs) and NCLEX on the first try with 75 questions.I can practice skills stations with you, teach you NCLEX or NREMT strategies, work on your weaknesses and teach you how to memorize large amounts of info to pass your exams! You can do it!

Frequently Asked Questions

10th grade French introduces complex grammar that often trips up students, particularly passé composé and imparfait verb tenses, which require understanding when to use each in storytelling. Many students also struggle with subjunctive mood, irregular verbs, and maintaining consistent verb conjugation across different subjects and tenses. Beyond grammar, vocabulary retention becomes more demanding as students encounter thematic vocabulary sets for topics like family, professions, and current events. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, tutors can target your specific weak points—whether that's conditional tenses, relative pronouns, or building confidence with spoken French—rather than moving through a one-size-fits-all curriculum.

Classroom settings often don't provide enough safe space for students to practice speaking without feeling self-conscious. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction creates a judgment-free environment where you can make mistakes, ask for clarification, and build confidence at your own pace. Tutors can use conversation-based activities tailored to your interests—whether discussing movies, sports, travel, or hobbies—making speaking feel natural rather than like an interview. Regular speaking practice is one of the most effective ways to develop real fluency, and having a dedicated tutor means you get consistent, personalized feedback on pronunciation and expression that you simply can't get in a classroom full of 30 students.

Whether you're preparing for unit exams, midterms, or standardized language assessments, tutors align their instruction with your school's specific curriculum and testing format. They'll help you master the grammar topics and vocabulary your teacher emphasizes, practice reading comprehension and listening skills in the exact style of your exams, and develop strategies for managing timed writing sections. Tutors also identify gaps in your understanding before test day, so you're not cramming the night before. Many students find that working with a tutor throughout the semester—not just before exams—leads to stronger performance because concepts build naturally rather than being memorized in panic mode.

Knowing that "je vais" means "I go" is different from confidently using it in a real conversation. 10th grade French requires balancing explicit grammar instruction with natural language acquisition—understanding the "why" behind rules while also developing intuition about how French actually sounds and flows. Expert tutors blend both approaches: they explain conjugation patterns and grammatical structures clearly, but they also immerse you in authentic contexts where you apply those rules without thinking about them. This might mean reading short texts, having conversations, or watching French media clips and discussing them. The goal is to move beyond textbook French to the kind of fluency where you're thinking in French, not translating from English in your head.

Culture isn't just "nice to know"—it's central to actually understanding how French speakers communicate. Expressions, humor, formal versus informal language, and cultural references all shape how native speakers use the language. In 10th grade French, understanding cultural context helps you grasp nuances your textbook might not explain, like why certain phrases are more appropriate in specific situations or how regional differences exist. Tutors can weave cultural learning into your lessons—discussing French films, literature, current events, or traditions—which makes the language feel more real and relevant. This approach also naturally builds vocabulary and conversational ability because you're learning language *in context* rather than from isolated word lists.

Progress in French depends on how much and how consistently you practice. Research on language learning suggests that developing intermediate conversational ability requires roughly 600+ hours of focused study, but you'll notice meaningful improvements much sooner—many students report feeling more confident with verb conjugation and basic conversation after just a few weeks of regular tutoring. The key is consistency: students who work with a tutor weekly and practice between sessions see faster, more sustainable progress than those who cram sporadically. By the end of 10th grade French with dedicated support, you should be able to handle everyday conversations, understand written French at a reasonable pace, and feel significantly more confident in your skills than you were at the beginning of the year.

Great 10th grade French tutors combine strong language expertise with the ability to explain complex grammar clearly and make learning engaging. They understand the 10th grade curriculum, can identify exactly where you're struggling (Is it listening comprehension? Verb tenses? Confidence speaking?), and customize lessons to address those gaps. They should also be able to balance structured grammar instruction with conversational practice, use authentic French materials, and create a supportive environment where you feel comfortable taking risks with the language. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who meet these standards and can work with your schedule and learning style, ensuring you get the personalized instruction that leads to real progress.
