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

I am a graduate of Northwestern University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a minor in Global Health Studies. I have tutored students of all levels in reading comprehension and writing - outlining, drafting, and reviewin/editing essays. I enjoy tutoring a wide range of social sciences and humanities-based subjects, but I am most passionate about English and Psychology/Sociology. While at Northwestern, I also taught health education curriculum to high school students during COVID, an experience through which I gained strong virtual teaching skills and developed engaging material. I believe that becoming a strong writer is a highly transferrable skill, and I would love to support students in developing their confidence in writing. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, running, and trying new recipes or restaurants.
