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

I am a college professor who likes to academically support students of all ages. I have four degrees which include a BA from the University of Michigan Ann Arbor and a PhD from Drew University in Madison NJ. It is awesome to work with students who are committed to success but I also like to assist with students who might have veered off path and are working to better themselves academically. Let's get some work done. It would be a pleasure to work with you and support you as you realize your goals. I am down to earth, energetic and totally committed. I think you will appreciate my experience and know how as well.
