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 rising senior at Connecticut College double majoring in Neuroscience and Music Studies and minoring in chemistry. I have plenty of experience working with all ages, from teaching dance and musical theater to kids aged 3-16 and tutoring elementary, middle, high school, and college students, particularly in science and mathematics. I plan to go pursue an MS and potentially a PhD in the sciences (neuroscience, chemistry, biotechnology, and/or pharmacology). I believe that everyone can learn anything, they might just need a different approach or a little bit more time and that influences how I run my sessions. I feel that the learning itself is often undervalued as well as the genuine appreciation of knowledge and enjoyment in learning and I aim to correct that. My favorite subjects to assist with are music (theory, performance, etc) as well as general and organic chemistry, although I have tutored sciences and mathematics at large. Outside of my academic pursuits, I'm an avid baker and crocheter, learning soap making, and enjoy painting by number.
