Natalie
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +23 Subjects
I am a freshman at Duke University in the Pratt School of Engineering. I plan on majoring in Civil or Environmental Engineering, as well as Economics. While I am qualified to tutor a range of subjects from math and science to ACT prep, I get the most excited when working on improving a student's writing because it is such a beautiful process. Sparking students' curiosity and excitement is the most rewarding part of tutoring, and I make it my mission to achieve that with all students I work with. In my free time, I am involved in a variety of groups on campus such as the triathlon club, FEMMES (a female-oriented STEM tutoring club), and The Chronicle, which is Duke's student newspaper. I also enjoy reading, running and baking all sorts of delicious delicacies. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, baking, running, art, books

I am currently doing research on personalized therapies for glioblastoma brain tumors at the Duke Medical Center, before I continue on to medical school. I love to swim, walk my pug dog, and hang out with family and friends in my free time. I hope I can help you in your studies. I look forward to working with you!
Bethany
Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Duke University. I received my Bachelor's degree in History and my Master's degree in Religious Studies. Since graduation I have tutored students in American History and Biblical Hebrew, which were exceedingly rewarding experiences. I am especially passionate in helping students learn to think critically, and enjoy the process of learning. While I tutor a variety of subjects, I am most enthusiastic about tutoring in History and Writing because these subjects utilize skills that students will use and cultivate throughout their lives and are applicable for many careers. I would describe my teaching philosophy as hands on and project-based learning. I strive to include fun and relevant videos, songs, and activities into my curriculum to ensure the engagement of my students. Outside of academia I like painting, baking, hiking, photography, and having game nights with friends.
Florence
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +83 Subjects
I am a rising senior at Duke University. I major in Computer Science and am also getting a minor in Physics. I have had experience tutoring/teaching as a teaching assistant for three classes: Intro to Databases, Electricity and Magnetism (for engineers), and Computer Network Architecture. I have had industry experience in software development as an intern for IBM and a cybersecurity analyst for TIAA. Outside of school/work, I play the piano and train with the Duke Taekwondo Club. I have a strong background in computer science, physics, and math, but I love learning about and helping students with a wide variety of subjects!

Caleb
Middle School Math Tutor • +33 Subjects
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and I am studying social studies with a focus on Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. I have lived my whole life until college in the incredible countries of Rwanda and Kenya (with one year in Egypt). Since education wasn't easily accessible to me through elementary school, very early on I had to learn how to love learning and teach myself. Even after many years of more formal education I haven't lost that spark and that ownership of my education yet! I love tutoring because it allows me to bring people into that same kind of ownership of their knowledge. I love tutoring all sorts of different subjects, but I have the most experience (and maybe the most love) for tutoring in calculus, French, Arabic, English as a second language, and test prep!
Tammy

I'm graduating from medical school at Duke University this summer and finally have quite a bit of flexible time to tutor, something I really enjoyed doing all throughout college. Hobbies: reading, cooking, music, art, books, writing
Taariq
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Duke University, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in 2014. I am primarily a math tutor but I also enjoy teaching chemistry and physics. Math was always my favorite subject in high school and I continued my love of math at Duke. I have also been a middle school and high school tutor throughout my time at Duke through the Program in Education. One of my crowning achievements at Duke was winning the DT Stallings Award, which is awarded to a Duke senior who has shown sustained and dedicated service to tutoring local school children. When I am tutoring a student, I prefer a very hands-on approach. I love working out problems with my students after working through an example problem completely. By working problems out with my students, I am able to help them if and when they get stuck. I hope to convey to every student the ability to think logically and persevere when things seem difficult.
Jonathan
Pre-Calculus Tutor • +14 Subjects
I am a freshman at Vanderbilt University currently pursuing a B.S. in Biochemistry. My inquisitive nature has fostered a love for mathematics, the natural sciences, and how they interact to produce the world we experience every day. This extends to my teaching strategy, where I emphasize the importance of conceptual understanding rather than pure memorization of equations and steps. My recent experience in a wide variety of Advanced Placement courses lends me insight to recent changes in course objectives and exam formatting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Varsity Tutors connects students from across Apex's 24 schools with personalized instruction. Whether your student attends a school in the Wake County or Chapel Hill-Carrboro school districts, we match them with tutors who understand local curriculum standards and can support their specific academic needs.
Personalized 1-on-1 instruction allows tutors to focus on the specific North Carolina Standard Course of Study requirements your student is working toward, whether in math, English, science, or social studies. Tutors can identify gaps in understanding and build skills at your student's pace, which is especially valuable given Apex's 15.8:1 student-teacher ratio in classroom settings.
Apex students typically seek support in math (algebra, geometry, and advanced courses), English/language arts, and science—particularly as they progress through middle and high school. We also work with students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as AP exam preparation across multiple subjects.
During the first session, your student's tutor will assess their current understanding, identify areas where they need the most support, and establish learning goals together. This personalized approach ensures the tutoring plan is tailored to your student's specific challenges and learning style from day one.
Varsity Tutors offers flexible pricing based on the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. You can adjust your tutoring schedule as needed—whether increasing sessions before a test or reducing them during lighter academic periods. We work with Apex families to find an arrangement that fits both their budget and their student's academic calendar.
Varsity Tutors connects students with tutors who have strong subject expertise and proven teaching experience. Tutors are vetted for their ability to work effectively with students one-on-one and are matched based on your student's specific needs and learning goals.
Many students see improvement within the first few weeks of consistent personalized instruction, though the timeline depends on the subject and how far behind they are. Starting tutoring as soon as you notice your student is struggling gives them the best chance to catch up before grades are finalized, especially important in Apex's competitive academic environment.
Simply tell us your student's grade level, the subject they need help with, and your availability. Varsity Tutors will match them with an experienced tutor who fits their needs, and you can begin personalized instruction on a schedule that works for your family.
