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 a graduate of the Johns Hopkins University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Behavioral Biology with a focus on neuroscience. I've had a passion for tutoring since high school where I oversaw our tutoring program as well as tutored students in Biology, Algebra, and Calculus. While I attended Johns Hopkins, I continued to tutor students for the SAT and ACT as well as Biology. I am most passionate about tutoring in Biology even though I am proficient in a wide range of subjects. I firmly believe that there is not one way to learn. Unfortunately, our schools only show one way and largely focus on test scores to measure a student's success. I like to tailor my teaching style based on each of my student's needs, so they are properly prepared to excel in the classroom.
