Amanda

Biology Tutor • +5 Subjects

I received my bachelor's degree in biological sciences from Clemson University in 2006 and my PhD in Plant Pathology from the University of Florida in 2011. Plant Pathology is a specialized discipline in the field of microbiology which is a combination of plant sciences (horticulture, genetics, etc) with microbes which parasitize plants. My tutoring experiences includes more than 5 years of working with interns, and non traditional students in laboratory and classroom settings. I really enjoy teaching all subjects pertaining to the life sciences, including biology, microbiology, plant sciences, and genetics. Living organisms, their surrounding environment, and genetic make-up have always fascinated me since I was a child. It is a passion which was developed early and one which I adore.My education and teaching style has been honed through the land grant extension service, whose core mission is to teach people to help themselves. Therefore I tailor my teaching style to each individual or group by creating hands-on applications of the teaching topics and by challenging students to think by asking informed and engaging questions. Additionally, I most importantly believe that a fun engaging environment creates passion and desire to learn, inquire, and achieve great things.Outside of the classroom I really enjoy the outdoors from hiking to gardening to practicing yoga. I also love to cook and create down home "soul food" with a twist. Since I do come from two schools with large football cultures, fall is my favorite time of year. There is something about the crisp air, the color change in the trees, and the collegiate excitement around this sport that makes me feel extremely nostalgic and excited. Also I really love harvest festivals, the fairs, and the art shows. There is something about fall that brings out the creativity in people.

Aaron

Advanced Placement Prep Tutor • +40 Subjects

I am a graduate of Michigan State University, where I studied Mathematics and Interdisciplinary Humanities. I am currently enrolled at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, where I study Development Economics and International Monetary Policy. I have worked as a Teaching Assistant, Research Assistant, and as an Actuary, and have a particular passion for teaching Mathematics. When tutoring I try to include visualizations and real world examples whenever I can so that it does not feel like a fruitless exercise. I help students reach their goals with a two-pronged approach: reinforcing and building upon strengths while targeting weaknesses. In my free time I exercise, play the piano and volunteer with the Jewish Vocational Service.

William

Biology Tutor • +9 Subjects

I majored in biology at Grove City College, PA and Cleveland State University, OH. I majored in zoology at Ohio State. My degrees are BS, MS, and PhD. My teaching began while I was earning my advanced degrees, and I enjoyed it so much that I am still teaching biology classes at Tri-C. Classes I have taught include Anatomy and Physiology, Ecology, and General Biology. My favorite subject is ecology because I can study outdoors in forests and streams. I teach the way that I was taught by my favorite teacher. He made the students feel comfortable and made learning fun. I like to describe subjects in ways that make it interesting to the student. I am passionate about learning and I love to share this passion with my students. I love walks in the woods where I can discover new things while I enjoy nature. I also love to read, especially science fiction and fantasy.

Cara

AP Biology Tutor • +16 Subjects

I am a graduate of Liberty University, where I received a Bachelors of Science in Environmental Biology. While there, I also obtained a Virginia teaching license in General Biology for grades 6-12. After graduating and getting married, I moved to South Florida, where I now attend Florida Atlantic University in pursuit of a Master of Science Degree in Environmental Science. I have been tutoring various subjects since high school, but find Math and Science to be my strongest areas. While at Liberty University, I worked as a Biology tutor both for the Bruckner Learning Center and for the Biology Department itself. For my education certification, I completed several Biology practicums including a semester of student teaching 6th grade life science at Linkehorne Middle School. Now as a graduate student, I work as a Teaching Assistant by teaching Comparative Vertebrate Morphogenesis, Human Morphology, and Anatomy and Physiology labs at the FAU Davie campus. I am very passionate about all things Science and Biology remains my favorite subject to tutor. While tutoring, I bring my extensive content knowledge, patience, and creativity for developing personalized tutoring and studying techniques. When I am not in class or tutoring, I enjoy tennis, biking, reading and being an officer for South Florida’s Herpetology Society (a society for amphibian and reptile lovers).

Jack

Algebra Tutor • +22 Subjects

I am an undergrad at the University of Chicago, having graduated high school at Jesuit Dallas. I am currently pursuing a major in Computer Science and a minor in Math. I am interested in teaching as a possible profession, so I am planning to attend graduate school in a few years and planning to get a TA job in upcoming quarters. I tutor Computer Science, Math, and Physics, for Middle and High School students, and maybe college students in intro classes. I am most passionate about teaching programming because I find it to be a very useful and engaging skill; a lot of my friends at UChicago come to me when they have trouble working with Python or R, so I also have the most teaching experience with this field as well.I believe everyone learns differently, and I aim to be flexible to meet the different learning styles of my students. My general approach, however, emphasizes discovery and the learning process, rather than the rote memorization of rules and facts (this is why I prefer teaching Math, Computer Science, and Physics instead of fact-based domains like History and Chemistry).In my free time, I learn more about programming, which I apply in the context of programming competitions and game design. I also love playing board games with friends and family.

Algebra 2 Tutor • +9 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Central Florida studying electrical engineering with a minor in computer science. When I began attending college I realized that I had a real passion for helping my classmates understand any topic that would be difficult for them, and this is what encouraged me to become a tutor. I have previous tutoring experience in subjects from Chemistry to upper level math. My favorite subjects to tutor are Calculus, Algebra, and Engineering Statics. I strongly believe that the key to teaching a student is to show empathy and patience, as well as demonstrating how what is being taught can apply to real-life scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions

Connecticut Bar Exam takers most commonly struggle with the Connecticut Practice Test (CPT), which tests practical legal skills through realistic scenarios, and with heavily weighted Connecticut-specific subjects like Connecticut civil procedure rules and Connecticut evidence law. Many test-takers also find the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE) section challenging due to its breadth—covering seven subjects (Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts) with questions designed to test nuanced understanding rather than memorization. The Connecticut Essay Exam section demands not only knowledge of substantive law but also careful analysis of Connecticut-specific statutes and case law.

Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to identify your specific weak areas—whether that's MBE strategy, essay writing, or Connecticut-specific law—and create a targeted study plan rather than generic bar review. A tutor can review your practice essays, pinpoint gaps in your legal reasoning, and provide immediate feedback on your application of Connecticut law. This individualized approach also helps you develop a sustainable study schedule that fits your lifestyle, since bar exam preparation requires months of consistent effort. Research on learning shows that 1-on-1 instruction significantly accelerates mastery compared to self-study, which is particularly important when high stakes are involved.

A strong Connecticut Bar Exam tutor should be a licensed Connecticut attorney with direct bar exam experience—ideally someone who has passed the Connecticut Bar Exam themselves and understands its unique demands. They should have significant experience preparing other bar candidates, familiarity with Connecticut-specific procedures and substantive law, and expertise across both the MBE and Connecticut-specific essay sections. It's also valuable to work with a tutor who stays current on changes to Connecticut bar admission rules and recent case law that might appear on exams. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors whose backgrounds match these criteria, ensuring you're learning from someone with real expertise in Connecticut bar preparation.

Most bar candidates benefit from 3-4 months of structured preparation, though this varies based on your background and how much time you can dedicate weekly. Someone with strong legal knowledge and study discipline might prepare effectively in 10-12 weeks, while others benefit from a longer timeline of 16-20 weeks to allow for deeper mastery and multiple practice exam cycles. The Connecticut Bar Exam covers an enormous amount of material across the MBE subjects plus Connecticut-specific law, so rushing preparation usually results in gaps. A tutor can help you develop a realistic timeline based on your starting point, identifying which topics need more intensive focus and building in adequate practice testing and review cycles.

The Connecticut Bar Exam weights the MBE heavily in overall scoring, so MBE mastery is critical, but you can't neglect Connecticut-specific essays—they're worth significant points and require detailed knowledge of Connecticut civil procedure, evidence rules, and substantive law. A balanced approach typically involves building strong foundational knowledge across all seven MBE subjects while simultaneously studying Connecticut-specific topics, then gradually increasing your emphasis on practice testing and timed essays as your exam date approaches. Many test-takers find it helpful to integrate Connecticut law into their MBE review (for example, understanding how Connecticut court rules affect civil procedure questions), rather than treating the two areas as completely separate. A tutor can create a study schedule that addresses both areas strategically, ensuring you're allocating time proportional to the exam's structure and your personal weak spots.

Score improvement depends heavily on your starting point and study commitment, but candidates who work with tutors typically see meaningful gains in both their practice exam scores and final bar results. Many test-takers improve their MBE performance by 5-10 percentage points through focused strategy work and targeted content review, while others strengthen their essay writing enough to improve that section substantially. The most significant improvements often come from identifying and closing specific knowledge gaps and learning effective test-taking strategies rather than just studying harder. Rather than guaranteeing a specific score, a tutor's value lies in helping you maximize your potential by working smart—eliminating wasted study time and focusing on what will actually improve your performance.

Many successful Connecticut Bar Exam takers use both: a comprehensive bar review course provides the structured curriculum and materials you need to cover all required content efficiently, while a tutor provides personalized feedback, strategy coaching, and targeted help with your specific weak areas. Think of a bar review course as your foundation and roadmap, and a tutor as a guide who helps you navigate your unique challenges within that framework. Some candidates find that tutoring for 5-10 hours strategically placed throughout their study period—perhaps during the middle when motivation dips, or in the final weeks before the exam—maximizes their return on investment. Varsity Tutors can connect you with tutors who work seamlessly alongside whatever bar review program you've chosen, focusing on the areas where you need the most help.
