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.

Samantha: Ottawa tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a current undergraduate student attending Hofstra University. I will graduate in Spring of 2026 with a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with a focus in Neuropsychology and a minor in Music. I believe learning is unique to an individual and it is important to understand and utilize strategies that are best for a person's learning style. I tutor in the natural sciences as well as assist with ACT and AP test preparation. I am particularly passionate about Psychology and Biology and find the scientific process to be exhilarating! My goal as a tutor is to not only help students understand the material on a conceptual basis but to also help them develop strategies for learning and studying that best fit their unique ways of thinking. As a neurodivergent individual, I am passionate about accepting and accommodating all forms of learning and thinking and I understand that every student has unique educational needs. Outside of coursework and tutoring, I enjoy a variety of creative activities like singing, composing music, acting, and crocheting. When time permits, you may also find me playing video games or organizing my trading card collection.
