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.

Jess

Certified Tutor

I have a BA from the Evergreen State College and a Masters of Education from San Diego State University. I've tutored students in math, reading, SAT prep, and computer science. Currently, I tutor in Algebra, pre-Algebra, Algebra II. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra, because I enjoy sharing my love of puzzles - that's all algebra is in my opinion.
When I tutor, I give students room to discover the path to their own understanding of a topic or concept. I'm a "guide on the side."
Outside of tutoring, I enjoy hiking, hearing live music, scoring great finds at thrift stores, and playing guitar.

I love to share the experience of learning with other people. I believe our minds are miraculous. Learning exercises the mind, as does play. When I'm not learning, I'm solving puzzles (typically of the crossword variety).
