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.

Certified Tutor

My education and work experience has been in organic chemistry and biochemistry. My volunteer work has included Science Olympiad and robotics. I have always enjoyed teaching, and helping students to get excited about science. My experiences with my own childrens' learning issues (ADD, autism) have made me look into better ways to present material for different learning styles.
