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.

Jacob: Yorkville tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently a student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign studying civil engineering.
I have always had a passion for learning and helping others learn. It is my goal to help others succeed and see them accomplish things that they once thought to be impossible.
Topics that I specialize in are high school math and sciences along with all levels of high school Spanish.
My approach to tutoring is to establish a strong understanding of the "why" and then focus on the "how".
