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.

Thomas: South Elgin tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a Sophomore Physics major at Skidmore College, with a minor in Education Studies, and additional focuses in Theater and Sociology. I believe the most empowering learning experiences emerge from strong personal connections, which is why I am especially passionate about tutoring.

I tutor Physics, Saxophone, and Theater at all levels. In Physics I have three years of experience at the high school and college level, spending time as a student and researcher. In Saxophone I have ten years of experience, having been selected for multiple OCMEA All-County bands, and NYSSMA Conference All-State Band. In Theater I have nine years of experience as an actor, lighting technician, and director.

I have had extensive training in the theories of education broadly and the specifics of various Physics, Music, and Theater curricula. My goal is to make tutoring collaborative, creative, and fun. When I'm not teaching, learning, playing the saxophone, or making theater, I enjoy reading, appreciating nature, and spending time with the people I love.
