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.

Peter: Sauk Village tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Swarthmore College and have received my Bachelor of Arts in English and Psychology. I am particularly interested in writing, both critical and creative. I have experience as a copy editor for The Phoenix, one of Swarthmore's student run newspapers, and as a news writer for The Daily Gazette, which is no longer operating. I hope to help students communicate their ideas through writing both in and out of the classroom. I would like to impart all of the lessons I have learned on how to write concisely and with purpose while maintaining one's personal style. I hope to teach students more than just rigid grammar rules. Helping students learn how to organize their thoughts and express themselves is what I really want to focus on. I hope anybody who works with me will be able to take the lessons learned and use them for assignments and projects for years to come.

Hobbies

In my spare time, I enjoy reading and creative writing. I am also pursuing freelance voice-over on the side. I play the piano every now and then and I play other random instruments with my friends. I love playing chess online and I try to connect with distant friends through video games. I am also an avid drinker of tea and a collector of headphones and fountain pens.
