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.

Jacob

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Connecticut College. I received my American Chemical Society certified degree in Chemistry in 2010. Since then I have been pursuing my doctorate degree in Inorganic Chemistry at Temple University. Since entering the program three years ago, I have taught a number of General Chemistry classes each semester and during this time I have developed and advanced my style of teaching. I always try to present myself as a fun person so that my students are more interested in what I am saying and are more comfortable approaching me for help. I've found the teachers that I have learned the most from were theatrical and entertaining and I strive to reach my students in the same way. When I am not teaching or performing laboratory research I enjoy rock climbing, bicycling, gardening and making music.
