Last year, I enrolled my oldest daughter, Sophia (13) with Varsity Tutors in order to get help with French and 7th grade Math. Sophia worked with Alexandra McCarthy on French and with Rahul Parameswaran on math to include: pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, etc. Sophia absolutely loved working with both of them. She looked forward to her sessions and actually would come home asking me, " Mom, when am I working with Rahul again?" or "When is my next French session?" When Sophia needed help or had a test she would ask, "Mom, please call Alexandra or (Rahul)... I need help fast!" I mean, when does a kid really look forward to doing algebra? When does a child genuinely laugh, smile and enjoy learning these tougher subjects during sessions that can last up to 1 1/2 hours? But this is how Sophia responded to her online lessons with Varsity Tutors. As a parent, I love Varsity Tutors and the teachers/tutors they assign because of their flexibility, the quality of the teaching/tutoring they offer my child, the positive attitude of the instructors and outstanding customer service the company offers. I was also impressed with the wide range of tutoring options they are able to provide both, online and with in-person tutoring sessions. This year I added my other two daughters to the Varsity Tutors' roster. Melania 11 and Victoria 10 will be getting help with math on an 'as needed basis;' and, eventually, Melania will work with Alexandra as soon as she starts French. But our primary objective for this year was to get an online vocal coach for all three girls and to arrange online Clarinet lessons for Melania and Victoria. The girls have been taking piano and violin for several years, but are just now beginning the clarinet. So with full packed schedules across the board, our only option was an online class on Sunday afternoons - and Varsity Tutors delivered!!!! Varsity Tutors assigned Lauren Burrer and Paula Shtein to help with vocal lessons; and, they found an amazing musician, Chris Bauer to work on the Clarinet every Sunday. In just a few sessions, Paula and Lauren helped all three girls revamp their vocal and breathing techniques, compile an updated repertoire of songs for their upcoming auditions and helped them with vocal presentation/performance. With that, Melania did end up booking a role in Matilda last week scheduled to open at the Walnut Street Theatre during the upcoming holiday season. And as for Clarinet.....well, by the end of the first Clarinet lesson, my youngest was playing 'Mary Had a Little Lamb'. Now that's amazing! They literally went from learning how to assemble a clarinet to playing the G Scale to playing their first song! Efficient, Effective, Convenient, Flexible, Positive, Encouraging, Helpful and Worth Every Penny - that's Varsity Tutors! read more

I am a (nearly) 63 year old Vet Tech student(!), and have been having trouble relearning the type of medication calculations I fought hard to learn before graduating from nursing school in 2011. I barely practiced nursing and so effortlessly forgot the formulas I had toiled to learn. In 2018 I entered an accelerated program to become a Veterinary nurse. During our first whirlwind semester i braced myself again to lean into the math. It's not so difficult, especially if you're good at it; I am NOT!!! It occurred to me, (like God speaking), that I ought to engage a tutor. I called Varsity Tutors and within three days I had been matched with Max S. Max is a Good Human Being and that is where his teaching style emanates from. He listened to me when I explained to him my learning style which is: You can "s'plain" it to me all day and all night and I will never get it. Explaining math to me is like talking to a dog. All I hear is "Blah, Blah, blah, Walk! Blah blah Treat! Blah Blah blah Numerator." My friends are words, not numbers! So Max lets me talk his ear off as I explain my way through each problem to him and myself! He's very patient and he's helped me a lot! Thank you, Max S! And thank you Varsity Tutors! read more

Varsity Tutors is amazing! My two teenage boys work with a tutor twice a week for test prep for acceptance to an independent school and they love it! Varsity Tutors matched my boys with a tutor on-line who keeps them engaged and focused for sessions that last an hour and a half. He fits in little brain breaks that they love and he keeps them motivated and interested! I have seen the skills they're learning translate to their classrooms and their confidence levels are soaring. He exposes them to math and reading that they do not see in their classrooms. They complete diagnostic testing in between sessions which helps the tutor decide what skills to cover. The use of technology creates a state of the art learning experience. My boys are high achievers and Varsity Tutors has pushed them even higher! Also, the office staff of Varsity Tutors is always available to answer my questions and help me with my technology questions. I just can't say enough about Varsity Tutors! read more

We were new to the area, and my daughter was new to public school as a sophomore in high school. She had some struggles, and that's when I discovered Varsity Tutors. My daughter was very resistant to tutoring at first, especially online tutoring. And that's when her tutor, Elizabeth, entered the picture. Words cannot express the change in my daughter's academic life! Elizabeth was pleasant, always willing, patient, so prepared, encouraging, and formed a beautiful relationship with my daughter. Proud to say when I opened the newspaper this morning, my daughter is on the Honor Roll!! Cannot wait to start the new school year with Elizabeth!! I would never hesitate to recommend Elizabeth, as well as Varsity Tutors to anyone!! read more

If you are looking for a qualified, professional tutor or are a teaching professional looking for extra income I heartitly recommend Varsity Tutors. I joined this fantastic team last year and have not looked back! I have been matched with appropriate students, received immediate assistance when needed and utilized their very user-friendly online format to the benefit of my students.Because the Varsity organization is so well run I can spend all my time building a productive relationship with my students online or in person. But, most importantly, I enjoy teaching again! I can see the improvement in my students and even better, they do, too! read more

Varsity Tutors set me up with a tutor named Terrence. He was able to help my grandson gain an understanding of his course work by utilizing different learning techniques to help him learn. In three month, he took him from failing math to a very high "B" (almost an "A") and he continues to get better. His high school offered tutoring and he refused it because he only wants Terrence. My family is very thankful for Terrence. He has definitely made our lives easier (better). If anyone needs tutoring, Varsity tutors is a great place to start. They exhibit great professionalism with a great skilled staff for all tutoring needs. read more

I received tutoring from Varsity Tutors to improve my GRE scores. I worked with Daniel, who was an incredible tutor and supported me throughout this process. He is incredibly knowledgeable about math concepts and was able to talk me through problems, help me when I needed it, and praise me when I solved problems on my own. He was also helpful with the verbal sections and questions, always talking me through my answers, having me explain why I picked an answer, and challenging me. I highly recommend Varsity Tutors and Daniel specifically if anyone needs help improving their GRE score or with any other standardized test. read more

Melissa G. Melissa of Varsity Tutors has been tutoring my daughter for over a year in math. It has been just fantastic. Melissa is always always on time, flexible and available.

She has increased my daughter's confidence and motivation like I've never seen due to her friendly, personable, encouraging and laid back approach. She has developed an amazing rapport with my daughter. She encourages her and they laugh while learning and working. I have felt incredible relief having Melissa be a part of my daugher's education. read more

Over the years, we have had 3 tutors through this company. ALL 3 were top notch, high quality tutors. Our daughter has learning difficulties with math and spelling. Her tutors have been highly understanding and accommodating to her learning needs. Our current tutor, Samantha S, continues to encourage and inspire our daughter to do her best. As a parent, I especially love the video replays and session notes as I can easily share them with my daughter's school teachers. If you need quality tutoring, you cannot go wrong with Varsity Tutors! read more

My son has been receiving tutoring services through Varsity Tutors this past year. While we have had 3 tutors secondary to the tutors relocating, each tutor has been professional, patient, and extremely helpful to my son. He has been tutored in Biology and in Geometry. Sometimes, the tutors are slow in responding to texts and sometimes they do not show up on time; however the staff at Varsity Tutors have been available and supportive during those times. I recommend Varsity Tutors to anyone. read more

I love being a tutor here. Support staff is great when I have questions. Also, being able to set my own hours is great. I tutor mostly math, personal finance, and IT certification courses along with basic computer use and Microsoft office. I also enjoy working with the clients. Downfall is sometimes you get a Instant session that the student just wants a quick answer and not help. Other than that, I enjoy working here and with the students that are matched with me. read more

We will use Varsity for many years and highly recommended them to others! read more
