I'm Diptanshu, a tutor in Middlebury, Vermont, offering help in Math, English, Spanish, Reading, History, Basketball, and Soccer. I’m a sophomore at Middlebury College, where I’m majoring in Economics and pursuing a minor in Mathematics. I started tutoring through my high school’s National Honor Society. I have experience working with middle school and high school students taking courses in high school Mathematics, History, Spanish, and English. I was also a member of our school’s Spanish Honors Society and took Spanish classes all four years of high school. During my senior year, I was awarded the Minnesota Seal of Biliteracy, and I would love to help anyone interested in learning Spanish! At Middlebury, I have completed math coursework up to multivariable calculus and completed economics coursework up to economic statistics (econometrics). I have also taken courses in American History, Chinese History, and even Indian Cinema. Outside of the classroom, I am on the board of our South Asian Student Association and a participant in intramural basketball and soccer. I played varsity soccer all four years of high school, and played basketball from fourth grade to 10th grade. I’m a big believer in collaboration, and almost everything I do involves my favorite activity: being a teammate. Along with tutoring students, I’ve also experienced being tutored. During my freshman and sophomore years of high school, I struggled with math courses in geometry and algebra, and even worse, I struggled with asking for help. It was only after I was paired with an upperclassman tutor through the National Honor Society that my grades and understanding of the subject began to improve. During my Junior and Senior years of high school, I used my experience being tutored to help younger students and foster a collaborative environment focused on developing comprehensive and technical ability. As a tutor, I’m excited to work alongside students and help them achieve their academic goals. Outside of academics, I am open to assisting students in developing their technical ability in basketball and soccer as well.

Diptanshu offers in-person tutoring on or near the Middlebury College campus for families across Middlebury Vermont, Cornwall Vermont, Weybridge Vermont, New Haven Vermont, Addison County Vermont.
If you have a specific tutor in mind, you're welcome to request them directly — we'll confirm whether they're available and the right fit for your student. Otherwise, Ryan writes a personal email to understand your student's needs, learning style, and goals — then handpicks a tutor from the roster. You're not filling out a form and getting assigned randomly. If the first tutor isn't the right fit after the first session, we'll find you a better match at no extra charge.
Yes. Many families start with a single session to see how the tutor and student connect before committing to a regular schedule. There's no pressure to book in advance — reach out and we'll set something up.
Yes. Many of our tutors are strong across several subjects, and sessions can cover more than one if that's what the student needs that week. Flexibility is built into how we work.
Most of our tutors continue working through breaks, either online or in-person at the college if the tutors remain on campus during that vacation. We'll let you know in advance if a tutor has a gap in availability and arrange coverage with one of our other tutors — in-person or online — in the required subject.
Occasionally, if the student lives very close to the tutor's campus. Most sessions take place on or near the college campus or online. This keeps sessions in an academically focused environment — which tends to produce better results.
The families who see the biggest results are the ones who commit to a regular cadence — typically once, twice, or three times a week. One-on-one tutoring with a student from an elite college, who genuinely understands the material, is a fundamentally different experience from a tutoring center or an app. Most of our clients stay with us for multiple semesters.

That depends on where your student is starting and how consistently they show up. Diptanshu will identify the specific gaps, focus sessions on them, and adjust as the student progresses. Families who stick to a weekly schedule typically see meaningful progress within four to six weeks.
