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

From a very young age I was always interested in how and why people do and act the way that they do. It always struck me as interesting that humans in general were not the same, while some may look alike, no 2 people think and behave alike. I am as analytical and logical as they come, to me there is only black and white, there is no grey. I have tried to be the type of person that can see the grey areas in the world, but it has never worked effectively. Academically, I set out to figure out why the human brain is the way that it is, why it works the way that it does, and why people act with certain behaviors while others do not, hence my interest and degress in Psychology and social sciences.
