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.

Elijah: Diamond Bar tutor

Certified Tutor

I have lived in Chicago since the spring of 2017 after graduating from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia. I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Civil/Environmental Engineering and a Bachelors of Arts in Dance/Theatre Performance. During my senior year I got a contract to be apart of a professional dance company after graduation, thus being the reason why I relocated to Chicago. On the side, also teach dance to children from elementary to high school and occasionally adults.

I am proficient in the subjects and areas I have studied. The reason I think I can be an effective teacher is that I had to work hard to understand and execute materials both in engineering and dance. Nothing was easy for me so I had to find more effective ways to study and understand the subject matter. I will be able to understand a student's problem figuring out their material and give them the tools to understand with their own reasoning. Hard work shows a lot about a student than what is easy for them.
