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.

Nicholas

Certified Tutor

I received my Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, with a double major in Entomology and Philosophy. Currently, I am in my final semester of a Master's degree in Entomology, from the Federal University of Parana, Brazil, studying ecology and evolution of mosquitoes. While in Brazil, I tutored English to non-native speakers, both children and adults. I also have experience tutoring in reading and the sciences. In my view, education is not merely a means to an end, but an end in itself - and my goal as a tutor is to present, discuss, and work out the content with the student(s) in such a way that each of us shares in the other's enthusiasm along the way. I personally particularly enjoy literature, history, and languages, and other interests of mine include music, hiking, and cooking.
