Amanda

Algebra Tutor • +16 Subjects

My name is Amanda Pursel and I am a freshman at Shippensburg University this year. I am majoring in Elementary Education and minoring in Psychology. I have a love for working with kids and have been volunteering in classrooms since my junior year of high school. Senior year I spent every day after school in a first grade classroom with kids. On breaks from college, I work as a substitute aid in my school district at home and have helped over 40 kids with different subjects and things they struggle with. I aspire to become a successful first grade teacher one day, and maybe after that even an elementary school guidance counselor. I take working with students very seriously because I hope to make a difference in their lives and allow them to enjoy what they're learning.

Linda

3rd Grade Science Tutor • +27 Subjects

I am a licensed teacher with 15 years of classroom teaching experience. I am certified to teach grades 1 - 6 and high school English, and I also have certifications in AIG (Academically and Intellectually Gifted) and ESL (English as a Second Language). I received a BS degree in Elementary Education from UWM-Milwaukee and a Masters in Educational Leadership from National Louis University in Chicago, IL. Ever since I started teaching, I have been passionate in my commitment to maximizing individual student performance, inspiring students interest and instilling a sense of self-worth among all students. I have dedicated my career to each of these pursuits, as my resume will attest. In my personal life, I have two grown sons and a very spoiled mix breed dog. I have lived in Milwaukee all of my life but got a chance to experience living and working in another area - North Carolina - for several years. It's beautiful there. I enjoy traveling to places I've never been before and meeting new people; shopping; reading; basketball and attending sporting events. When time allows, I enjoy sewing and taking long walks.

1st Grade Math Tutor • +63 Subjects

I am currently a fourth grade special educator providing support in primarily math, reading and writing. I also work as a reading interventionist with the Leveled Literacy Intervention program as well as Sonday for students who benefited from multisensory reading instruction.I graduated in June 2004 from Columbia High School, in May 2008 from Rutgers College with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, in May 2009 with a Master's Degree in Education and have dual certification in elementary education (K-5) and middle school mathematics (6-8). I returned to school at Kean University to get my Teacher of Students with Disabilities certification which I completed in 2013.Working with students with special needs means working with learners with widely varying abilities. I design creative, stimulating lesson plans that accommodate multiple intelligences, bring a hands-on approach to learning, and keep students interested and focused. I encourage student learning by using a number of hands on activities, including the use of manipulatives, and by incorporating technology into my lessons.

After that, I will be attending a masters program in mental health counseling and eventually going on to get my doctorate in clinical psychology.My skills include time management, test-taking skills, writing aid, reading comprehension, verbal and reading skills, and test preparation.

Ari

Algebra Tutor • +60 Subjects

I am a graduate of a school in northwest Pennsylvania with a degree in Biochemistry & Piano Performance and plan on attending Medical School in the near future. In my four years there, I was selected by the department chairs to be the designated tutor for Mathematics (Precalculus to Calculus 3), Organic and General Chemistry, Biology (Cellular, Molecular, Developmental, and Genetics), and Physics, each for minimum of one year. The reason I agreed to tutor again and again each year they approached me is because I simply loved it. It is hard to describe the wonderful feeling of seeing a student you helped master the material in front of you and run through problems like they're nothing. My favorite question since childhood has been "why?". I was never a fan of just memorizing facts, because not only do you not really understand the material, but you are likely to forget it. That principle has transitioned over to my tutoring style. We start from the most basic, simplest core of the concept. Once we understand that, we slowly work our way up until you understand even the most difficult concepts..soon you're able to tell me the reason for every variable in the Schrdinger equation. Sometimes my students also develop a passion for knowing why and I love it. I'm not a tutor automaton though; my other hobbies/passions include piano, weight lifting, classical music (and concerts), composition, and environmental activism. In addition to tutoring, I've spent time in my institution as the head of research regarding nuclear import receptors via the genetic engineering of yeast to express the human AR receptor and the transformation and construction of plasmids.

Frequently Asked Questions

Varsity Tutors connects students across New Rochelle's 18 schools and the New Rochelle City School District. With nearly 10,000 students in the district, we work with learners at every grade level—from elementary through high school—helping them succeed with personalized 1-on-1 instruction tailored to their specific needs and their school's curriculum.

Tutors who work with Varsity Tutors are familiar with New York's learning standards and assessments, including Regents exams, state math and ELA benchmarks, and grade-level expectations. Personalized instruction helps students master concepts at their own pace, filling gaps that may exist in a traditional classroom setting and building the foundational skills needed to perform well on state assessments.

Yes. New Rochelle's average student-teacher ratio of 13.1:1 is reasonable, but individual students still benefit from one-on-one attention. When a student needs extra support in a specific subject or learns differently than the classroom pace allows, personalized tutoring provides the focused instruction that helps concepts click—something that's difficult to achieve in a group setting.

The first session is an opportunity for the tutor to understand your student's learning style, current level, and specific goals. Whether your child needs help with algebra, test prep, reading comprehension, or any other subject, the tutor will assess where they stand and create a personalized plan for progress. Most families see this as a chance to ask questions and ensure the fit is right.

Absolutely. While many New Rochelle students seek help with math, English, and test preparation, tutors also support learners in science, history, foreign languages, writing, and more. Whether your student needs help keeping up with their current coursework or wants to explore a subject more deeply, personalized instruction can be tailored to those goals.

It depends on the test and your student's starting point. For standardized tests like the SAT or ACT, most students benefit from 8-12 weeks of consistent tutoring, meeting 1-2 times per week. For Regents exams or classroom tests, a shorter timeline of 4-6 weeks is often effective. Your tutor will discuss a realistic timeline based on your student's needs and goals during your first session.

Tutoring costs vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and your student's needs. Varsity Tutors works with families to find options that fit different budgets, and many tutors offer flexible scheduling to make personalized instruction accessible. During your initial conversation, you'll learn about pricing and can discuss what works best for your family.

Simply reach out to Varsity Tutors with information about your student's grade, subject, and goals. We'll match them with a qualified tutor who understands their needs and can provide personalized instruction. Most families can get connected with a tutor and schedule a first session within a few days.
