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

My specialty is environmental science! I have a BS in Biology with a minor in Chemistry and a PhD from Cornell University in Environmental Toxicology. I love learning and sharing information about the world around me! My career has focused on environmental testing, regulation, and management of pollution. I've taught college courses in biology and sustainability and led several seminars on chemistry topics. I love breaking down complex ideas to help you truly understand things that we can't see with naked eye such as you would find in molecular biology, biochemistry, organic chemistry, environmental chemistry, and evolution. I can help you learn tools such as analytical chemistry, biological engineering, and biostatistics. Are you applying for college, grad school, or in the planning or implementation phase of a project? I'm great at helping people identify their assets, make a plan, and achieve their goals. I'd like to branch out into middle and high school learning too, so help me help you, whatever your education level is. Please tell me what you want to achieve, and I will help you do it!
