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.

Paul: Lincolnwood tutor

Certified Tutor

I received my Bachelor of Arts in Biology and English from UC Berkeley in 2009. After graduating, I spent a lot of time traveling, conducting biological field surveys for different government institutions, universities, and nonprofits. I just recently moved back to the Bay Area and I'm just getting started with tutoring! Learning is a real passion of mine, and I consider myself a lifelong student. The best compliment anyone could give me about my teaching is that I make the material interesting and exciting. I think my greatest strength as a tutor is my patience. I take care to listen and make sure I understand where my students are having trouble so I can adjust my approach before tackling the material. I tutor a wide variety of subjects but the subjects I love best are English, Literature, and Reading. In my spare time, I like to read and write fiction, bird-watch, bike, and go hiking and camping. I'm also fascinated by languages, and I'm usually taking some language class or other - right now I'm learning Japanese.
