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.

Alan: College Station tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently a student at Williams College. I have not yet specified my major but I plan to concentrate in English and philosophy. I have a keen interest in education and have actively sought out experience in the field for the past two years. I served as a Writing Fellow at Mount Greylock Regional School this past fall. There I was employed as an assistant for Mr. Dils, a high school English teacher. I was responsible for helping to prepare his tenth and twelfth grade classes, as well as correcting student writing. I have additional experience tutoring English at the Isoapple after-school facility, where I am currently assisting with the summer program. English is my primary subject, but I am also interested in tutoring History and SAT prep. In my own experience writing is the superlative avenue of expression, and reading the premier pathway to wisdom and perspective. Education is, in my opinion, the greatest good there is, and I hope to foster a similar appreciation in my students. In my spare time I enjoy reading, for both pleasure and knowledge. I also enjoy going on long walks, listening to music, and playing videogames.
