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.

Joe: Queens tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a recent graduate from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science, Policy and Management, with a specialization in Education and Communication. Now I am studying to take the GRE and apply to graduate school for a masters of Ecology and Evolution. My first tutoring experience was at Adams Spanish Immersion, my elementary school, where I returned to tutor 3rd and 4th graders in Spanish and English reading and writing. Writing is my academic strong suit and I enjoyed tutoring classmates in paper writing throughout college. I believe that students write their best when they're writing about something they're passionate about. My favorite part of tutoring is helping people find a strong purpose for their writing. It is a great reward to watch a student's writing skills flourish as they realize how impactful a strong essay can be. I tutor Environmental Science, Writing, ACT Writing and English prep, beginner level Spanish, and entry level Chess. Although Writing is my strongest and most rewarding subject, I love to teach basic Chess lessons to help students get into the game!

Hobbies

Skateboarding is my greatest passion in life! I try to skate as much as possible to stay happy and healthy. Cooking is another favorite activity as I love to work with new ingredients, learn different ways to cook, and feed family and friends homemade meals. I am an avid chess player and am always asking my roommates to play a game or two. Sustainability is the driving force behind my devotion to environmental science and I am constantly looking to reduce my environmental impact.
