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.

Katia

Certified Tutor

I'll be graduating from medical school at Rutgers RWJMS in 2020 and starting residency in Internal Medicine. I'm also a graduate of Columbia University with a BA in biology.

I've always been interested in a wide range of subjects in school and love to encourage students to be enthusiastic about learning too. I often find that anxiety or fear are the first barriers to overcome in learning challenges. After that, hard work and lots of practice can conquer any difficult topic!
