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.

Alvin

Certified Tutor

I am a recent law graduate of Howard University School of Law. While I was in law school, I was the Managing Editor of the Barrister Newspaper. I have a BA in Political Science and a BA in English Language and Literature from the University of Michigan.

Over the years, I have garnered experience in teaching and tutoring. While I was at Michigan, I volunteered with the student organization, Intellectual Minds Making a Difference, by tutoring Detroit high school students in ACT prep. After I graduated from Michigan, I served as a conversation circle leader in which I helped non-native English speakers to sharpen their English language skills through conversations about campus life, food, movies, and other various topics.

I am a focused, diligent, hard-working, goal-oriented individual who has a strong sense of commitment to achieving his goals. In the present case, I do all that I can to improve my student's acumen in the subject in which they seek improvement.
