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 currently a senior at the University of Pennsylvania studying cognitive neuroscience and philosophy. I have always loved learning and sharing my love for learning with others. For this reason, I have tutored throughout my time in high school and college. By working with students ranging in age from 5 to 20 years old, I realize that everyone learns in different ways. I am passionate about teaching in a way that works for each individual student. While I have experience tutoring in many subjects, I specialize in essay writing, particularly with personal statements and supplemental essays for college applications. I also specialize in resume writing. Still, I enjoy tutoring subjects like math, ranging from Pre-Algebra to Calculus 1, psychology, and English. For fun I enjoy reading, running, and listening to podcasts.
