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 hold a PhD in Economics, have taught economics at the college level and tutored mathematics and computer science for high-school and college students. I am passionate about helping students connect theoretical concepts to real-world applications. My approach is student-centered; I tailor sessions to address the specific challenges a student is facing, identifying their knowledge gaps and proceeding to build a solid foundation for academic growth. I strive to create a collaborative environment where students feel comfortable expressing their needs. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring different cultures, having lived in five countries and visited 25 more, which enriches my perspective and enhances my teaching by adding context and perspective.
