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 am a current Medical student at the University of Missouri- Kansas City looking to help others on their journey to figuring out how to learn! I am in a 6 year program where I have finished my BA in biology and am now working on my MD. Through my years of education, I have struggled through countless classes until I found the perfect way to work through problems. I am hoping I can help others find that path, and eventually have my students become proficient self learners!

I have experience working with students through volunteer work which allowed me to help students learn how to read one-on-one. Additionally, as a student myself, I know the time that a student chooses to get help is sacred time, as everyone lives such busy lives. Because of this, I do not believe in simple busy work or wasting any students time.

Because of my experience as a medical student, I have a lot of exposure to Biology and Chemistry classes. I tutor these classes as I have taken high level courses in these subjects, and I am continuously updating my information through my own education.

I also tutor ACT help! Through my own journey, I was able to improve my score by 7 points! I understood how stressful it was to choose resources, or how to complete practice questions, and would love to help people find a method of practice that works! I am able to help those who are looking to improve their score to create a plan that makes sense to them!

I also can help in other subjects, including social sciences and reading comprehension in middle and high school. I believe that all students deserve to feel confident and ready to learn! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
