What prompted you to seek tutoring?

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.

Ellie: Ottawa tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm a student at the University of Michigan studying Environmental Science (with a focus in Terrestrial Ecology) and Comparative Literature. I'm specifically interested in contemporary American and Latinx literature, including fiction, creative non-fiction, and poetry. I love reading, writing, and talking about books! I'm also interested in Agroecology and sustainable agriculture, and I work in an Agroecology lab here at UMich as well as at the Campus Farm. I'm excited to help you hone your skills in Environmental Science, English, Reading, Writing, and/or Spanish since these are all of the subjects that get me super excited!:) I like to approach tutoring as more of a peer-study experience, and I look forward to helping you understand concepts that you're struggling with or just want to review a bit more. I have experience tutoring Spanish, English, reading, and writing, and I've always found that this peer-study approach is best for everyone. Looking forward to meeting you!
