Michael
Calculus Tutor • +64 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of Michigan where I earned my bachelor of science degree in cellular and molecular biology. I chose this major because I am fascinated with how cells in the body interact with each other and the pathways in which they communicate. Originally being pre-med, I applied to medical schools the year after I graduated. Also during this gap year, I taught introductory chemistry lab for science majors at Grand Valley State University. After some self reflection I decided medical school was not the path I wanted to take and decided instead to move to New York City to pursue my other passion of performing on stage. However, due to my background in academia and teaching, I desired to maintain plugged into that world in whatever way I could. That is how I discovered VarsityTutors.

12th Grade math Tutor • +39 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of the University of Pittsburgh with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Since I first tutored about six years ago, it has always been a passion of mine. I enjoy making connections with students and helping them succeed. I believe that any student has the capacity for greatness; sometimes they simply require the right push. As a tutor it is my mission to help every student reach his or her potential. I accomplish that by adapting my tutoring technique to the specific style of the student.

I'm sure of, it's that I genuinely enjoy tutoring. I'm also a "professional" student. I say this because absorbing, analyzing, and integrating knowledge from my medical courses are necessary skills for my own academic success. And so, I am more than happy to share my study strategies, techniques, and tips with students.
Kimberly
11th Grade math Tutor • +84 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Biology and Womens & Gender Studies. Having been a science nerd throughout high school, I knew that I would want to study biochemistry at university, but I also wanted to strengthen my writing, analytical, and research abilities in a non-scientific context. So focusing on both was perfect for me because I was able to develop analytical and problem-solving skills in two very different contexts. Having this background also allows me to feel comfortable tutoring a range of subjects.
Tarif
12th Grade math Tutor • +75 Subjects
I am a fourth year Medical Student in the Sophie Davis School of Biomedical Education at CCNY. This is a seven year BS/MD program, so by the end of the seven years, I will have achieved both degrees. I have a lot of tutoring experience in the K-12 age especially in the 7-12 grade range. I have taught SAT, SHSAT, ACT, SAT subject tests and Regents exams as well. My favorite subject to tutor is math and biology, but I am able to tutor other subject areas like reading, writing, chemistry, and physics. My tutoring style is very student oriented with some lecturing. I make sure that most of the time I am asking questions, even if it is basic, just to get the student to always be on his/her feet. I also make sure to use a lot of diagrams and flow charts when teaching. Outside of school, I spend a lot of time exploring and doing photography. I also love listening to music, watching basketball, and spending time with friends and family. Hobbies: books, photography, writing, reading, music, art
Joyce
8th Grade math Tutor • +71 Subjects
I am currently in a Physician Assistant program at University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth and am loving every minute of clinical practice! I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Philosophy from University of St Thomas. While an undergraduate student, I enjoyed leading fellow pre-health professional classmates as campus President of HOSA-Future Health Professionals. One of my most unforgettable health care experiences was a two-week medical missions trip which involved extensive teamwork for fundraising and bringing medical supplies to serve a remote and underserved village in Huancayo, Peru. I also received a Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences from University of North Texas Health Science Center and am pursuing a career as a Physician Assistant. While pursuing my master's degree, I learned to ask for help from teaching assistants and tutors, and am immensely grateful for their guidance! I am interested in academia after gaining several years of clinical experience as a PA. In my free-time, I enjoy cooking, dancing, and spending time with my two lovely poodles. I am also passionate about rescuing animals!

Frequently Asked Questions
7th grade science encompasses a broad range of topics across life science, earth science, and physical science. Common areas include cell structure and function, genetics and heredity, ecosystems and energy flow, weather and climate systems, forces and motion, and the periodic table of elements. A tutor can target your student's specific curriculum—whether that's following state standards or a particular textbook—and focus on the areas where they need the most support.
Visualization is key to mastering abstract science concepts. Tutors use diagrams, 3D models, animations, and hands-on demonstrations to make invisible concepts tangible. For example, they might use physical analogies to explain atomic structure, draw detailed cell diagrams with labels, or use everyday objects to demonstrate forces and motion. By connecting these abstract ideas to things students can see and touch, tutors help concepts stick in ways that reading a textbook alone often doesn't.
Memorizing that mitochondria is the "powerhouse of the cell" doesn't help a student explain why cells need energy or predict what happens when mitochondria malfunction. Real understanding means knowing the 'why' and 'how'—being able to apply concepts to new situations, connect ideas across topics, and reason through problems scientifically. Tutors focus on building this deeper understanding by asking questions, having students explain concepts in their own words, and connecting theory to real-world examples. This approach not only improves grades but develops scientific thinking skills that transfer to future science classes.
Lab work teaches the scientific method in action—forming hypotheses, designing experiments, collecting data, and drawing conclusions. Many students struggle with the reasoning behind each step or translating raw data into meaningful results. Tutors can help students design experiments logically, troubleshoot when results don't match expectations, interpret data accurately, and write clear lab reports. Whether your student is preparing for upcoming labs or trying to understand a lab they've already completed, a tutor can strengthen both their hands-on skills and their ability to think like a scientist.
Absolutely. These are two of the most common pain points in 7th grade science. Balancing equations and unit conversions require systematic thinking and practice—not just memorization. Tutors break down these processes into clear steps, show why each step matters, and give students plenty of guided practice with feedback. Once students understand the underlying logic, they gain confidence and can apply these skills to new problems independently.
The best tutors combine strong science content knowledge with the ability to explain complex ideas simply. They should ask questions to understand where your student is struggling, adapt their teaching style to how your student learns best, and focus on building both knowledge and confidence. Look for someone who can connect science to the real world, make abstract concepts concrete, and help students develop problem-solving skills—not just get the right answer.
Many students show noticeable improvement within 2-4 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially if they're working with a tutor regularly. Early progress often comes from better understanding of recent topics and improved confidence on assessments. Deeper gains—like developing strong scientific reasoning skills and catching up on foundational concepts—typically develop over longer-term tutoring. The timeline depends on where your student is starting from, how frequently you meet, and the specific areas being addressed.
