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.

What is your teaching philosophy?

I like to enable students to become passionate about what they are studying.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

I would try to understand the student's personal background of that subject, as well as the student's interests and passions. I also will wish to know the best learning style of that particular student.

How can you help a student become an independent learner?

Understanding how the student learns best and what learning mechanism works best for him or her.

How would you help a student stay motivated?

Correlate the specific subject or topic to something that the student can be familiar with and (most importantly) be excited about. Bringing in real-life examples would also be ideal!
