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.

Certified Tutor

I am an undergraduate student studying Economics and Public Policy at the University of Chicago. I attended the Horace Mann School in New York City. I love teaching and working with students because I feel that there is nothing more rewarding than being able to provide the extra push that students might need to be successful. I am passionate about helping students learn and making sure they are having fun doing so. I'm also happy to talk about anything a student might want to talk about, academically, extracurricularly, or otherwise.

What is your teaching philosophy?

In a typical first session, I would spend time introducing myself and getting to know the student. Then we would spend some time figuring out the student's strengths and weaknesses, and I would work with the student to identify what he or she wants to work on or needs help with. After that, I would have the student complete some practice problems or answer practice questions in the areas that we have identified. I will use that information that I gather in order to design a plan for our next few meetings that is tailored to the student's needs and wants.
