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 have a Bachelor of Science in Physics from the University of Maine. I am a full-time employee at Pearson and I make the questions that go on Statewide end-of-year science assessments. Currently, I make the FCAT for Florida. In the past, I have also made the state standardized tests for Texas (STAAR), Tennessee (TCAP), Colorado (CMAS), and California (CAASSP). I have also developed for the HiSET, and AP physics exams. Since I work full-time I only tutor in the evenings after work Mon-Fri and on the weekends.

About my tutoring style: I am big on explaining an idea multiple times in different ways until the concept sticks with the student. Repetition is often very helpful to students. I am a very patient tutor and make sure the student fully understands the topic before moving on. I don't want ANY student to feel like they are lost or don't get it. I will meet you where you are at and improve you from there.

After working through a problem I will then summarize the ideas that we learned. I have had fantastic success with hundreds of students over the years and I plan to continue to do so. Check out my reviews for proof!

Physics is my hobbie! No joke! In my spare time I read physics textbooks and enjoy solving the problems. Also, I enjoy playing chess in my spare time. I am not amazing at it but I still enjoy it!
