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 clinical researcher in the field of Infectious Disease. I work both locally here in Baltimore and globally across sub-Saharan Africa. I received my master's in public health at Johns Hopkins University in 2023 where I studied tuberculosis and healthcare epidemiology. I will begin medical school next summer.

I began teaching and tutoring during my undergraduate years at Franklin & Marshall College in 2016. There I studied classical languages and political science and worked as a student tutor and a teaching fellow for languages (Latin, Greek, French), SAT prep, and middle and high school math. Subsequently, I served with AmeriCorps in Washington DC as a math teacher and advocate for education equity.

I believe every student can succeed with the right tools, encouragement, and guidance. I bring a lot of energy and enthusiasm to each session, making learning engaging and positive. By taking time to understand each learner's strengths, challenges, and goals, I tailor my approach to their individual needs. Together, we break concepts into clear steps, celebrate progress, and build the confidence and skills students need to reach their goals.
