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 role as a tutor is to help you to help yourself and encourage you to learn. To this end I discover your weaknesses and strengths and help you to strengthen your weaknesses.

Learning subject matter requires logical thinking, and I am particularly could at it. Logic is an acquired skill that is learned and mastered over time. It takes practice, and I try my best to make this practice an enjoyable experience.

I like it when my students ask question. And, I like to teach students how to ask the right ones. For, posing the right questions is the key to solving problems whether they are in mathematics, economics, science, or a spoken or written language.

Because I have been teaching a long time, I know how to approach problems from a large variety of perspectives and am able to meet most everyone on his own ground.

I am fluent in several languages with formal training in economics, anthropology, statistics, and German language and literature. I am currently teaching a middle schooler how to read, write, and speak Japanese and coaching college undergrads in microeconomics finance, and statistics.
