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

Helping students always brings me great joy and excitement! I have always loved being able to see the "lightbulb" go off when things finally click for students! I have been a tutor for over four years, with three years experience of mathematics tutoring experience and one year of early elementary tutoring. While receiving my undergraduate degree, I was a mathematics tutor for my university tutoring a wide variety of math subjects, including some computer science courses. Currently, I have received my Bachelor's degree in mathematics and biology and am pursuing my Master's degree in Public Health. My favorite mathematics courses to tutor include Algebra, Calculus, and Trigonometry! When I am with a student, I always strive to make sure I fully understand what questions the tutee may have during the session, and ensure that I am able to answer these to the best of my ability. I love using both visual and auditory methods to ensure I am able to relay my information as best as I can! Since I received multiple semesters of training for tutoring in my undergrad, I am able to accommodate students to however they are best able to learn, whether that is more visuals or using alternative explanations. Although I am extremely passionate about Mathematics, other areas I am interested in include History and Science!
