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.

Igor: Essex County tutor

Certified Tutor

Throughout my life I have realized that sharing knowledge with others is the most rewarding thing for me. I realized that I have an ability to explain academic concepts well to others in school in Russia. In public school, in trade school, and in Institute of Chemical Engineering in Russia and later in California State University, Northridge I was engaged in tutoring one way or the other. In California, I was working with people with disabilities, and one of my responsibilities was to help them take the tests and to complete the homework. In addition, I spent 10 years working as an AVID tutor at the Puyallup School District, in Washington state. Also, I have 4 children of my own to whom I help academically throughout the school years and college years. I love to tutor any subject. As a Varsity tutor I was mostly called on tutoring Spanish, Russian, Latin, and Math. I believe that every student can learn. The goal of the teacher/ tutor is to find the approach to each individual student because each student has his/ her own style of learning. We know that there are different types of talents that people have. Some are best to learn as visual learners, some are best at listening, others are better at trying things they learn by experiencing them.
