Jordan

Adult Literacy Tutor • +38 Subjects

Currently, I am a first year student at West Chester University of Pennsylvania, working towards my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. Although unofficial, I will most likely continue on to minor in English/Literature or Art History. My skills vary widely in terms of tutoring subjects. I am personally equipped to teach elementary school through college level courses; however, as I have a passion for literature and the arts, I specialize and do best in tutoring English, Writing, and Literature Analysis & Critique. I love to equip my students with the tools they need to succeed in and out of the classroom - there is a difference between tutoring for the test, and tutoring to expand the way a person thinks, perceives, and analyzes the world. Outside of teaching, though, I love to write and read for pleasure, as well as learn about art and art history. I also play the french horn and the trumpet!

I began working as a tutor in High School as part of the Math Club, and then continued in college in a part time position, where I helped students in College Algebra, Statistics, Calculus and Programming.

Amanda

American Literature Tutor • +15 Subjects

I am a third-year law student at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and will be working as at attorney at a large corporate law firm when I graduate. I completed my undergraduate degree at NYU, double majoring in journalism and dramatic literature.I am passionate about education, specifically reading and writing, and believe my enthusiasm, organization and professionalism would make me an asset to your company.In law school, I was selected by a professor to be a teaching assistant for a Legal Writing course for 16 first-year students. I attended weekly classes, often providing input and co-teaching several classes. I also held weekly office hours, where I met with students individually and in small groups to help with their assignments, including working on their writing style and structure. In addition, I reviewed and edited students’ assignments, providing individualized feedback and advice.As a Constitutional Law teaching assistant, I co-taught weekly review sessions of over 75 students, where I explained and reviewed course material. I reviewed practice problems, coached students on proper study and reading strategies, and answered questions. I quickly learned best practices to keep all of the students engaged and focused, encouraging student participation and leading class discussions.I also volunteered with iMentor, providing one-on-one support to two high school freshman through online communication and in-person meetings. I provided structure and motivation, helping my mentees plan their future college and career goals, as well as study strategies and day-to-day organization. Working closely with my two mentees, I determined their individual communication and learning styles, as well as their strengths and weaknesses, and used this knowledge to tailor our sessions to best meet their needs.Finally, in high school, I tutored elementary school students in math and reading comprehension, helping with homework and assignment organization. I understand that every student has different academic, emotional and social needs and I am confident in my ability to help each student reach his or her potential.

ACT English Tutor • +15 Subjects

My goal as a tutor is not just to help students learn new material, but also to help them understand how to learn, study, and teach themselves things that they are having trouble with. This is something I struggled with throughout my academic career, and only through years of practice was I able to figure out new tricks and methods for teaching myself new material. I want to save this time and effort for all my students so that they can get to learning. I received a BA in Economics from Northwestern University, and just graduated in June 2016, and will tutor for Economics, the SAT, and the ACT. My interests outside of schooling include basketball and psychology!

Frequently Asked Questions

Quantitative Psychology applies statistical methods specifically to psychological research and theory. While Statistics courses focus on general data analysis techniques, Quantitative Psychology explores how those methods help us understand behavior, cognition, and mental processes. You'll work with psychological experiments, measurement issues unique to psychology (like reliability and validity of psychological tests), and research designs that test psychological theories. A tutor specializing in this area understands both the statistical foundations and the psychological context, helping you see how techniques like factor analysis, structural equation modeling, and multilevel modeling solve real research problems in psychology.

The most common struggles include bridging the gap between statistical theory and practical application in psychological research, understanding when to use specific statistical tests, and grasping advanced concepts like multivariate analysis and effect sizes. Many students also find it challenging to interpret output from statistical software (like R or SPSS) and translate those results into meaningful psychological conclusions. Personalized instruction helps you work through these challenges at your own pace, focusing on the areas where you need support most—whether that's strengthening your foundational statistics knowledge, learning software skills, or developing stronger conceptual understanding of why certain methods matter for psychological questions.

Expert tutors in this field have strong backgrounds in both statistics and psychology, understanding not just the math but the research context where these methods apply. They should be able to explain complex concepts clearly, help you work through problem sets and research papers, and connect abstract statistical ideas to real psychological studies. A great tutor will also help you develop skills in statistical software, teach you to think critically about research design, and show you how to evaluate the quality of psychological research. Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who can address your specific needs—whether you're preparing for exams, working on a research project, or building confidence in this challenging subject.

Research on learning consistently shows that 1-on-1 instruction significantly increases student achievement compared to classroom learning alone. In Quantitative Psychology, personalized tutoring is particularly valuable because you can move at your own pace through complex material, ask questions without hesitation, and get immediate feedback on your understanding. A tutor can identify exactly where your confusion starts—whether it's in foundational statistics, interpreting research designs, or applying concepts to new problems—and target instruction there. This focused approach helps you build genuine conceptual understanding rather than just memorizing formulas, making you more confident when facing new research questions or statistical challenges on exams and in your career.

With focused tutoring, you can expect improved exam performance, stronger grades on research papers and data analysis assignments, and increased confidence in statistical reasoning. More importantly, you'll develop the ability to critically evaluate psychological research, design sound studies, and select appropriate statistical methods for different research questions. Many students also report feeling more prepared for graduate-level statistics courses or research positions. The timeline for improvement varies based on your starting point and commitment, but most students notice stronger conceptual understanding and better problem-solving skills within a few weeks of consistent work with a tutor.

Most Quantitative Psychology courses use software like SPSS, R, or SAS for data analysis. Some programs also incorporate Python for statistical computing. Tutors experienced in Quantitative Psychology are familiar with these tools and can teach you not just how to use them, but how to interpret the output and troubleshoot when things go wrong. Beyond software, tutors help you work with concepts using tools like power analysis calculators, effect size interpreters, and research design planners. Your tutor can focus on whichever software your course uses, ensuring you develop practical skills alongside conceptual understanding.

Consider getting support if you're struggling with understanding statistical concepts, feeling lost when interpreting research papers, having difficulty with assignments or exams, or uncertain about which statistical test to use for different scenarios. You might also benefit from tutoring if you're preparing for graduate school and want to strengthen your research methods knowledge, or if you're working on a research project and need guidance on data analysis. Even strong students sometimes find tutoring helpful for pushing beyond basic understanding to master complex topics like factor analysis or multilevel modeling. A tutor can help you identify specific gaps and create a personalized plan to build your skills.
