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.

Shelby: Alexandria tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently enrolled in Villanova University's Liberal Arts Undergraduate Program as a mathematics major with a focus in education. While my studies primarily center on math, I have strong interests in history, language and psychology as well. I have experience working with kids of all ages - whether it be through tutoring or coaching swimming. I've tutored students in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia in a variety of subjects and coached swimming for kids throughout the DC Area for several years. I believe the most important tool for success in anything is a strong fundamental education. Through this, students are allowed to see their own potential and gain confidence in themselves, all while developing an appreciation for learning. For me, the best feeling is when a student truly engages and connects with the material they are learning. I am an avid college sports fan and typically use most of my free time to keep up with my favorite teams and spend time with friends.

If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.
