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.

Travis: Santa Fe tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently in my 4th year at Arizona State University studying Civil Engineering. I have completed all of my lower division classes and prerequisites, including many math and physics based classes. I have always been an excellent student in mathematical classes, and I continue to learn more, as much of my major is based around math. I graduated in the top 10 of my high school class with a GPA of 4.21 and I currently have an overall GPA of 3.9 in my time at ASU. I have tutored kids in the past, and I believe that I am good at putting things into terms that allow my students to better understand their course material. I believe that my tutoring methods are effective because I encourage students to learn the entire process behind what I teach them, so that they can carry those skills that they learn on to the next level. I also employ a method of questioning students and helping them to come to realizations on their own with small pushes and hints when necessary so that they have an easier time remembering. I also spend much of my time outside of school participating in sports at the club level for Arizona State, and I always did the same when in high school. I currently play on the club teams for water polo and ultimate frisbee at ASU, but I also love playing basketball.
