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.

Ben

Certified Tutor

I have years of experience working in the building industry, as well as teaching at developmental ages. I know what it takes to get the job done. I will work with you to define the program and create the algorithms for optimization, building lesson plans around your goals and current level. I have a basic model; determine the current level of comprehension and ability, learn what the students interests and passions are, share stories and experiences detailing why a subject is relevant, relate that subject to the students interests, and then make incremental steps using the subject matter to solve a real problem with reward for task completion. I believe in setting achievable goals and being persistent. Teaching is an activity I really enjoy doing and care about. I am also an independent artist, writer, and sports enthusiast. Go Sox!
