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.

Jacob: Lincoln Park tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University where I obtained a Bachelor's with Research Distinction in Sociology, as well as minors in Spanish and City Planning. Throughout the past year, I worked as an English Language Assistant in Madrid, Spain. In this role, I was able to work closely with middle and high school students to develop conversational and writing skills in English. I also helped prepare students for Cambridge exams (levels B1-C1). While I have a variety of academic interests, my favorite subjects to tutor are English (primarily for those who are non-native speakers), Spanish (primarily level 1), and history. Over the next year, I plan on applying to graduate programs as I continue working in Madrid. My teaching philosophy is simple: every person, regardless of age and/or background, has the ability to learn and thrive academically. ALL people have the right to a quality education.
