I'm working with a student, I'll ask more questions at the beginning of the session to get a good idea of where the student stands and where there are some gaps. One of the biggest things I've noticed (especially in math!) is that if there isn't a good foundation, you won't be able to finish the who...

I am a voracious reader, taking the time to expand my knowledge in a wide variety of subjects. Fun fact: I was initially...

Brian

ACT Math Tutor • +11 Subjects

I graduated in 2012 from the University of Chicago with a degree in Biology and a minor in Spanish Literature. I worked at Epic Systems for a year after undergrad to gain some real world work experience and gain knowledge of healthcare administration. In 2013, I started medical school at the University Of Chicago Pritzker School Of Medicine. I am currently in my fourth year of school, and will be applying tointernal medicine residency programs in the fall. I find the most effective learning strategy is to understand the underlying concepts behind a subject, which facilitates the application of this knowledge to a wide range of novel problems in a testing environment. Additionally, by helping a student find a personal connection to the material, I can foster a passion for the subject that motivates independent learning.

Nisarg

ACT Prep Tutor • +25 Subjects

I'm a freshman here at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I graduated from Wayzata High, and I'm currently pursuing a Bachelor's of Science in neuroscience. At the University, I'm usually in class, studying, hanging out with my friends, or at club meetings! In my free time, I love to breakdance, write poetry, debate politics and economics, and participate in practically every nerdy endeavor possible (huge Star Wars fan!!). I love to talk and will talk your ear off if you let me! I love trying new things, exploring the city, and traveling. My teaching philosophy is that teaching is a responsibility and a privilege; I'll put 110% into teaching if you put the same effort into learning. With hard work and patience, anything is possible!

Sean

Algebra Tutor • +10 Subjects

I am currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering at Kent State University. Throughout middle and high school, my access to tutors and other assistance services was limited. This in turn inhibited my learning and caused me to struggle in aspects of school that never really clicked. So I want to give others what I never got, and hopefully make learning easier to achieve. My subject of choice is math, but specifically, I tutor Middle School Math, Pre-Algebra, Geometry, Algebra, and Trigonometry.

Sam

Algebra Tutor • +16 Subjects

I am a graduate from Yale University with a degree in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry. An advocate for math and science education, I have become a writer and poet concerned with aesthetic philosophy since my graduation. My passion for teaching has taken on many forms, including as a music instructor, having maintained a private cello studio and conducted after-school string orchestra programs, as a running coach for youth and high school cross country and track athletes, and as a tutor in math and chemistry. At the moment, I tutor mathematics, which I believe to be an exceptionally crucial skill to develop for any academic subject and for a more intimate appreciation for the intricacies of the world. I fervently prescribe to a teaching method that promotes a unique engagement, both between student and instructor and with the subject matter, in order to impart the very human and meaningful elements residing in the material. Outside my more scholarly pursuits, I am an avid reader, a performing musician, and an amateur distance runner.

Alireza

Academic Coaching Tutor • +37 Subjects

I have 17 years experience in teaching general English, IELTS, TOEFL, and other international exams. I obtained my MA 14 years ago and am currently a PhD student in English teaching. I love to share my knowledge with my students in a friendly, warm, and culturally comfortable atmosphere I create all through my classes. I am particularly good at teaching speaking and writing in a smooth and exciting way. My students receive step-wise instructions in writing and clear feedback on their work. For speaking, I mostly focus on what my students want English for. This, I believe, maximizes our class efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Jersey City's 72 schools and 12 school districts with personalized tutoring. Whether your student attends a public school, charter school, or private institution in the area, we can match them with a tutor who understands the local curriculum and New Jersey academic standards.

With Jersey City's average student-teacher ratio of 14.1:1, many students benefit from personalized 1-on-1 instruction to fill gaps and accelerate learning. Tutoring provides the individualized attention that classroom settings often can't offer, allowing students to work at their own pace and focus on their specific challenges—whether that's mastering foundational skills or preparing for standardized tests.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who are familiar with New Jersey's Core Curriculum Content Standards and state assessments. Whether your student is working toward proficiency on NJSLA exams, preparing for AP courses, or building skills in core subjects, tutors can align instruction with what Jersey City schools expect and what the state requires.

In the first session, your tutor will assess your student's current level, understand their specific goals, and learn about any challenges they're facing in their Jersey City school. This helps the tutor create a personalized plan that targets exactly what your student needs—whether it's homework support, test prep, or skill building in a particular subject.

Varsity Tutors offers tutoring across all major subjects—including math, reading, writing, science, social studies, and foreign languages. We also support test preparation for SAT, ACT, and AP exams, as well as subject-specific help for courses like algebra, geometry, biology, and U.S. history that Jersey City students commonly take.

Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have subject expertise and teaching experience. Many have backgrounds in education, hold degrees in their subject areas, or have proven success helping students improve academically. All tutors are vetted to ensure they can provide high-quality, personalized instruction aligned with what Jersey City students need.

Varsity Tutors offers flexible pricing options based on the tutor's expertise, subject, and your student's needs. We work with families to find solutions that fit different budgets. Contact us for a personalized quote and to discuss what works best for your situation.

Getting started is simple—tell us about your student's grade level, subject needs, and goals, and we'll match them with a qualified tutor. You can then schedule your first session at a time that works for your family. Our process is designed to connect you quickly so your student can start getting the support they need.
