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.

I am a recent college grad with a strong interest in the field of education and a thorough enjoyment of language, literature, history, logic, and long distance running. I am a firm believer in the power of education to bring people together and also bring solutions to many of the nation's and the world's troubles. I also like to keep learning fun and always enjoy turning challenges into puzzles.

In my spare time I like to read, cook/bake, compete with my running club, and explore New York City. I also work as a math tutor with SAGA Innovations during the week.

What is your teaching philosophy?

I like to keep learning fun and interesting. This means that instead of rote memorization, I like to understand concepts on a deeper level and encourage my students to do the same. I like to be open and friendly with my students because having a good relationship with those I teach only improves our ability to work together.
