What prompted you to seek tutoring?

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.

Samantha: West Chicago tutor

Certified Tutor

With more than 10 years of tutoring experience, I've cultivated a tool chest of skills to help students learn and feel comfortable. I love relating material to more understandable aspects of daily life, and ensuring that my students really 'get it' and enjoy the process of learning!

I'm currently a third year medical student at UT Southwestern in Dallas, and I studied Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at The University of Colorado so I have a strong background in and love for the sciences. I also have a minor in Spanish and spent time studying in Spain, so I absolutely love teaching Spanish as well! Not to mention, becoming a doctor is essentially a long journey of standardized tests, so I have loads of test taking experience to help you or your student on that upcoming PSAT, SAT, ACT, AP exam, or MCAT!

When not studying or tutoring, I love tracking, running, hiking, skiing, and just being in the outdoors!
