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.

Jonathan: Bethlehem tutor

Certified Tutor

I received my Bachelor of Arts in music performance from UCLA and my Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in music from UC San Diego. At UCSD, I taught a variety of courses at the undergraduate level. For my work in this capacity I was twice awarded as an outstanding teaching assistant and consistently received extremely high student feedback for quality of instruction, attention to student learning, and overall satisfaction. I also spent a great deal of time helping students with written assignments, from understanding prompts and organizing content to choosing the best word or developing effective sentence structures. Building on this experience, I am excited to tutor. My favorite aspect of teaching is finding a way to relate a homework problem or question to something that students find deeply meaningful, helping to make the solution intuitive and personal rather than simply correct. Whenever I can, I play my tubas, cook, run, and read books on music, history, and philosophy.
