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.

Melani: Durham tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a student at Boston University studying in the 7 year accelerated BA/MD program, with a minor in economics. Ever since my own ACT and MCAT journeys, I have been committed to helping other students through these tough, but rewarding processes. I am passionate about creating a space that allows students to truly grasp concepts, since this is key in building confidence. I am concerned not just with my students understanding why an answer is right, but why the other answers are wrong. I have been a tutor for the ACT for 4 years and have seen immense improvements in each student I work with. Additionally, I recently wrapped up my own MCAT journey so everything that I learned to guide me through the process is fresh in my mind! I also am passionate about STEM subjects and love coaching students in their science and math courses, specifically in Chemistry, Calculus, Algebra, Geometry, and Physics. I have tutored students on a volunteer basis for 4 years in these subjects. When I'm not tutoring students (or studying for my own coursework), I love baking, running, and exploring new places!
