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.

What is your teaching philosophy?

I believe in working to ensure students truly understand the material before moving on to the next concept. In order to do this, I believe that making multiple passes through the information cements the material into memory very well.
