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.

Michele: Belfast tutor

Certified Tutor

My name is Michele Buday, and I have been a professional educator for nearly 30 years. Most of my career has been spent teaching math at the high school level, teaching everything from Pre-Algebra to Pre-Calculus(H) and Trigonometry. I have also taught the SAT class for my high school and served as the school-wide ACT coordinator. I have done individual tutoring for middle school and high school courses, the SAT and the ACT.

As a teacher and a tutor, I help students to develop the ability to process a problem step by step, teaching them to ask themselves the right questions to lead them to a correct answer. I help students "break down" problems into processes they can understand, and I use their interests and hobbies to make connections that make this easier. I truly want each and every student to be their very best, and I am truly committed to this effort.

I have varied personal interests including high school and college sports, reading, health and fitness, and organizing just about anything.

I have spent a career helping young people to reach or exceed their potential. I look forward to that opportunity for you or you student.
