I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Robert

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of the University of Connecticut with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry, the City University of New York, Hunter College with a Master of Arts in Chemistry Education and the University of Illinois at Chicago with a Master in Business Administration, concentrating in Finance, Marketing and International Business. As my education may indicate I love to learn and I have a passion for education. I worked in the pharmaceutical / chemical industry for over 10 years with companies like Abbott, Bristol Myers Squibb and Pfizer. However, my passion for education led me to leave the pharmaceutical industry and pursue teaching. I am a certified Chemistry teacher in New York State and New Hampshire. I have taught Chemistry, Physics and Introductory Organic Chemistry in New York City at 2 different schools including Brooklyn Technical High School (one of the city’s top public institutions). I have a passion for Chemistry that shows when I am teaching, I love challenges and love to inspire interest in Science in other people. I served 4 years in the United States Navy on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier and have traveled to every continent with the exception of Antarctica. I have lived in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston. One thing my diverse experiences have taught me is how to approach concepts and ideas from many different directions. I helping others to understand in a way that makes sense to them personally, rather than trying the one size fits all approach to learning. I believe once you understand a concept you comprehend it in the same manner as others but the way different people get to that understanding is not always the same.
