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.

Certified Tutor

I am currently a 3rd year Doctor of Physical Therapy student at Rockhurst University. I obtained my Bachelors in Health Sciences from the University of Missouri - Columbia (Mizzou). During my time at Mizzou, I was a preschool tutor for 2 years through a program called Jumpstart. The primary focus of this program was to teach children preparing for kindergarten how to read. In addition, I edited papers for undergraduate peers at the university level, as well as tutored classmates on subjects, such as Anatomy. After graduation, I was an assistant preschool teacher for 1 year, where I helped children learn their letters, numbers, how to spell their name, as well as many other skill sets. After being accepted into graduate school, I continue to edit papers and group projects, as well as help my peers study for our upcoming exams. I am extremely organized and like to share my tips and tricks with those seeking help in organizing their class work. I have also been told I have "the patience of a saint" on more than one occasion, and I would also describe myself as friendly, reliable, and kind. I look forward to working with students to help them excel academically!
