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.

Certified Tutor

I believe in prioritizing the thought process over memorization; That way a student can tackle a problem regardless of its presentation. The growth in critical thinking is the goal and achieving mastery of the course in question is the tangible reward that will only expand a student's capabilities.
I use analogies and mnemonics to save time when something must be memorized. I procure that the student understands the big picture first, so they can see where a piece of information falls in.

Most of my experiences teaching others and adapting accordingly are owed to a couple of things: my four years in the U.S Army as a medic, and my work tutoring students at The University of Texas at San Antonio.

I worked in the Biology department at my school. Now I'm helping students in the Athletics department to academically succeed, so they can keep representing our school through their sports discipline.
