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 originally from outside Washington DC and am now an undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis. I am planning on majoring in History, Political Science, and Secondary Education or Educational Studies. Even though I am a freshman, I am taking many upper level classes and love exploring my passion for history.
In high school, I was both a tutor for kids at my local middle school as well as a private tutor and tutored in subject from Physics, AB Calculus, and AP World History. I also worked in my local synagogue as a Hebrew School teacher for 1st and 5th grade students, so I have had experience with all ages of children. Additionally, in college, I participate in a program called Each One Teach One. WashU has partnerships with St. Louis Public Schools and students to go schools once a week and tutor the kids as a way to give back to the community.
I want to start as a teacher after graduation, get my master's degree, and move into education policy. I have known I wanted to be a teacher for a long time and cannot see a better way of fulfilling my desires than tutoring.
