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.

Dennis: Henrico County tutor

Certified Tutor

I graduated from Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School (MICDS) cum laude in 2015 and I am currently an undergraduate student at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. I plan on majoring in finance or consulting at the Goizueta Business School and also majoring in economics at Emory College. I am of Armenian descent and I speak Russian fluently at home; as a result, I am more than willing to engage in conversational practice with students of Russian!

As for my experience with the German language, I have been learning German for 8 years now through middle and high school as well as at the undergraduate level. I am well acquainted with German writing as well; also, German is very useful in a business setting and Germany currently boasts one of the strongest European economies, so I am excited to teach students about the language through that environment. So far, I have completed German at the 300 level and I have taken an business German elective. Aside from German in a business setting, I am more than willing to teach German grammar, sentence structure, conversational topics and the other facets of the language. Also, I completed and received college credit for the 2015 AP German Test and I am glad to walk students through that test structure and the associated curriculum.

In addition to foreign languages, I am also able to help students with various math topics. I have completed Algebra 1, 2, 3 and 4 as well as Trigonometry and Calculus 1, 2, and 3 along with Multivariable Calculus throughout middle and high school. Additionally, I have taken for AP AB and BC Calculus courses and I received college credit for them, so feel free to ask me questions about those tests.

Lastly, I am available for tutoring in introductory economics. I took AP Macroeconomics in high school and received a score of 5 and I just recently took Microeconomics at Emory and I would be happy to help students in those courses.

What is your teaching philosophy?

Learning is all about pushing your intellectual boundaries. As a teacher, I have to identify these boundaries and assist students in expanding them. Teaching is all about academically challenging your students, but also knowing when to step back and reevaluate. It is a dynamic process that requires constant adjustment, both on the part of the teacher and the student, but when executed, it can yield extraordinary results.
