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

After finishing my first semester at the University of Arizona, my adviser sat me down and told me to start cheering because I was done taking math courses forever. I wanted to cry! I realized that day that I wanted math to be a part of my life forever, and that was the day I decided to become a high school math teacher. I've tutored in math since my freshman year of high school for ages ranging from 7 to 21. I love math and science for myself, but even more, I love the feeling of sharing my passion with others. I love the moment when students begin understanding a subject! The second their brain goes from confusion and hopelessness to understanding and excitement is the most valuable experience I have had as a tutor! I tutored through my private high school, Phoenix Christian, and currently privately tutor in Math 100-129 and Chemistry 151/2 at the University of Arizona. I love teaching using my degree is Mathematics with an emphasis in education as I want to become a high school teacher and eventually a college professor!
