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.

Joshua: Villa Hills tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently completing my second semester at Cornell University's College of Arts and Sciences, where I am pursuing a triple major in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Religious Studies. My passion for helping students stems directly from my Christian faith: I believe God created us all with rational minds, and it is our responsibility to use them well!

I tutor a range of subjects including Mathematics (from Algebra to Calculus), as well as high school Chemistry and Physics. Still, mathematics remains my favorite subject to teach because it fosters the kind of logical reasoning and problem-solving skills that I deeply admire as a philosopher.

With me as your tutor, you can expect entertaining and personalized learning. During out first meeting, I will strive to understand you both as a student and as a person. In what ways do you believe you learn best? What are the aspects of your personality that make you, you? From here, I will create personalized lesson plans and practice problems that reflect what make you unique, as well as my own sense of humor.
