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.

John

Certified Tutor

I received my doctorate from Vanderbilt University in Physics and Materials Science with a concentration in carbonaceous nano-materials. My passion for education stems from the fact that in high school I received a C in physics in my first term. I was determined to get a A to keep my streak of A's in science going. At the end I received a B-. I went on to study physics because it challenge me to think out of the box and find alternative solutions to problems. Physics describes the world we live in holistically.
My teaching philosophy is about dedicated practice. I have a laid back approach to showing you how to attack the problems from a numerical and literary perspective.
