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.

Since 2011, I have been tutoring in the San Francisco Bay Area (San Ramon, Pleasanton, Dublin, Danville, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Milpitas).
Students from Dougherty Valley High School, San Ramon Valley High School, California High School, Dublin High School, Evergreen Valley High School have all been my clients. I have been tutoring Geometry, Algebra 1 and 2, Precalculus, AP Calculus and Calculus AB and BC for students from these high schools.

My hobbies are traveling, gardening, cooking!! Been to several countries in Europe (most recently Finland, Norway, Sweden). Most recently Japan - great country with great people.
