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.

Alex: Hendersonville tutor

Certified Tutor


I am a graduate of the University of Maryland-College Park. I received my Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering with a focus on transportation and project management. Since graduating in 2011, I worked for three years as an engineering specialist for the City of Philadelphia Streets Department in the Traffic Engineering Division. In 2015 I made the decision to go back to school in order to pursue a career practicing medicine. I recently completed a Pre-Medicine Post Baccalaureate program at University of Pennsylvania, and was also recently accepted into medical school for the class of 2022. I am passionate about tutoring because I believe in paying it forward in life, I was fortunate to have some great tutors growing up who helped me accelerate my academic achievement, and so my goal is to do the same thing for students today. I tutor a wide variety of subjects in math and science, including physics, chemistry, biology, and organic chemistry. My teaching philosophy is centered on patience, organization, and high achievement. In my spare time I enjoy reading, exercising, cooking, and spending time with my mini goldendoodle Sophie.
