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.

Karney

Certified Tutor

I have been tutoring and teaching for over ten years; I love helping people improve themselves, in academic subjects and on tests! I'm a filmmaker and photographer as well. I've made two documentary films and published fiction and poetry, and traveled to over thirty countries on five continents, so I have a lot of life experience that I bring with me to tutoring.

My exposure to the SAT began when I got the highest SAT score in my school district when I was a junior (without tutoring, even!). I started tutoring the Verbal side of the SAT in Los Angeles in 1999. Then I branched out into the SAT Math and then into academic tutoring in many subject areas. I was tutoring celebrity kids in Malibu mostly at that time. Since then, I've tutored students from 1st grade to college in many different academic subjects, and always continued to tutor the SAT as well.
