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.

Adam

Certified Tutor

I am a class of 2015 graduate of Boston College. I have been brought to the world of tutoring because of my desire to help students through the stressful time of taking those big scary standardized tests. Both the ACT and the SAT gave me a large amount of anxiety when I was a junior in high school and I want to help other students through this process. This desire brought me to tutor kids in the local Boston high schools while I was in college and now I have taken my talents to the Twin Cities.

Some fun facts about me not related to test taking are that I played the sousaphone in college, I sing in a local choir and that I can make a mean apple pie.

What is your teaching philosophy?

My teaching philosophy is based in breaking down a task into its component pieces. This way, instead of trying to do one really hard thing, a student only has to follow a few easy steps.
