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.

Derrick: Salem tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm committed to helping students achieve their educational goals and encouraging them to achieve their true potential. I received my Master's and PhD in history from Cambridge University, and can offer assistance in every area of history, from ancient civilizations to modern political theory. I can read Greek, Latin, French, and German. I'm willing to help with exam prep, editing papers, and research guidance.
I've tutored advanced postgraduate students and professional ESL clients, and can help with history of science, technology, and mathematics, AP world history, English and world literature, composition, geography, archaeology, and the social sciences. I'm also willing to assist with the analytical writing assessment and verbal reasoning components of the GRE and similar standardized tests.
My personal academic research involves the early modern legal theory, specifically equity, and the fascinating history of books, libraries and reading. Tutoring in my spare time allows me to help a much larger and more diverse audience, and I promise to customize my approach to match the unique needs and abilities of each individual student.
