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.

Samuel

Certified Tutor

Hi, my name is Samuel. I have a bachelor's in science in organic chemistry from the University of Illinois Urbana/Champaign. I am finishing a master's in molecular biology at SIUE. I plan to attend medical school this coming fall.

My qualifications include 7 years of experience in both one-on-one and group setting tutoring and teaching. I started as a supplemental instructor in organic chemistry. I was also an independent tutor throughout my undergraduate education for high school courses and ACT prep. Later, as a graduate student, I was a teaching assistant for molecular and general biology.

What I find most rewarding about tutoring is the ability to see others set and achieve goals. I find it satisfying to meet difficult goals and find even greater enjoyment in watching others progress and achieve their own goals. I prefer to work with motivated students who genuinely wish to improve themselves.

I am excited at the prospect of working with you and wish you the best of luck in all your endeavors.
