I am currently working on a Biotechnology degree after changing from an Aerospace Engineering degree after getting married. I have extensive experience in Mathematics and Science, and I am a very capable writer as well.

Mason
AP Statistics Tutor • +40 Subjects
I am a graduate of Texas Christian University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Economics and Political Science. During this time, I was a tutor for the Departments of Economics and Mathematics, where I gained a passion for seeing the "click" of knowledge, where information becomes made personal. Since graduation, I have have been pursuing my Master of Public Administration at the University of Kansas. My career mission is to work in City Management, applying math, social sciences, communication, and other fields to serve the public in a multidisciplinary manner. I am a firm believer in being a well-around, global citizen, so that entails being moderately versed in many fields of study. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Economics, Math, and Standardized Testing. I believe that education is the path to an enlightened life, so I look forward to joining you on that journey. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, film/television, stand-up comedy, and playing/watching all sports.
Anthony
Calculus Tutor • +20 Subjects
I am a certified English teacher and Principal in the State of Missouri. I believe that students are under more pressure than ever to succeed in school. However, due to the ever increasing class sizes that some of the best schools are experiencing students are not able to receive the personal attention that some of them need to be at their best. That is why tutoring can be so valuable. I am able to work one on one with a student which allows me to devote all my time to helping them with their particular problems. I am able to help students understand what it is they are being asked to do, assist them in accomplishing it and finally, provide them the ability to recall the information for future use.
John
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +33 Subjects
I am able to tutor many different areas of math, including Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. Of these, my favorite is definitely Calculus, because I think that there are many people with misconceptions about the subject, and I enjoy showing people that there is nothing to afraid of, and that it can actually be fun!
Jacob
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +33 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Missouri State University with a BS in Chemistry, emphasis in biochemistry. In my final semester of college, I tutored chemistry online, and I can honestly say it was the most enjoyable job I've ever had. I am a scientist, so I mainly tutor chemistry, but I am also an excellent essay writer, editor, and test taker. As a result I am well equipped to tutor chemistry, physics, biology, math, essay writing, report writing, editing, and ACT Prep. I love seeing students with a genuine interest in chemistry and giving them the guidance and tools to understand its toughest concepts. In my spare time, I am an avid video gamer, artist, cyclist, and a player of ultimate frisbee.
Evan
Trigonometry Tutor • +14 Subjects
I am currently working towards an Aerospace Engineering degree at the University of Colorado, Boulder. In high school, I worked with 5th grade students tutoring math. Beyond that, I was always avaliable to help my classmates learn topics that I may have understood better at the time. Overall, math and science courses are my favorite to help people with because I enjoy those courses myself and think the knowledge is not hard to learn if given the right teacher and enough time. In teaching, I like to understand the level of comprehension the student has first before just going in and telling them what he/she should do. It is more effective to learn how to teach yourself the knowledge than to just be able to regurgitate it onto a test. Other than academics, I like playing basketball, video games, and just hanging out and messing around with friends. Hobbies: art, books, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Springfield's 84 schools and both school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a school in Springfield Public Schools or Parkway, we match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and can support their specific academic needs.
Springfield students frequently seek help with math, English/language arts, science, and standardized test preparation—particularly as they work toward meeting Missouri's academic standards. We also support students preparing for ACT exams, which are widely taken across Missouri high schools. Tutors can focus on whatever subjects your student finds most challenging.
With Springfield's average student-teacher ratio of 12.6:1, many students benefit from one-on-one attention that addresses their individual learning gaps. Personalized tutoring fills that gap by providing focused instruction tailored to your student's pace and learning style, helping them master concepts that may get less attention in a traditional classroom setting.
During the first session, the tutor will assess your student's current level, understand their specific challenges, and learn about their learning style. This helps establish a personalized plan that targets the areas where your student needs the most support, whether that's catching up, staying ahead, or preparing for an important exam.
Tutors are familiar with Missouri's academic standards and can align their instruction to ensure students are building skills in line with state expectations. This is especially helpful for students working toward grade-level proficiency or preparing for state assessments, as tutors can focus on the specific content and skills Missouri requires.
Tutoring rates vary based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We recommend contacting us for a personalized quote based on your student's specific needs. Many families find that investing in targeted tutoring early prevents larger academic gaps down the road.
Yes, tutoring can be scheduled around your student's existing commitments—whether that's school, sports, or other activities. Tutors work with families to find times that work best, making it easy to fit personalized instruction into your student's routine.
Simply reach out to Varsity Tutors and let us know your student's grade level, subject needs, and availability. We'll match them with a qualified tutor who fits their learning needs, and you can start with a first session to see if it's a good fit.
