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.

Michael: Bradford tutor

Certified Tutor

A native of Arkansas, I graduated from American University in Washington, DC in 2015. Since then, I have worked with nonprofits in the Philadelphia region, in India, and in DC. Currently, I'm working for a human rights nonprofit in DC, where I do all sorts of data analysis.

I've been fortunate enough to work and live around the world - most recently working with goat farmers in India (long story). In college, I studied abroad in Jordan.

My background as a tutor is a bit unconventional: at each of these nonprofits my job included training and teaching my coworkers technical data and computer skills. Additionally, I've worked as a tour guide throughout the years during summers in school or on the weekends when working for nonprofits. Finally, while in college, I worked as a Teaching Assistant for an intro-to-religions course.

I've always been passionate about teaching (in its many forms). As a lifelong learner, I am excited to help you in your educational goals! While I tutor across many subjects, I'm most passionate about social sciences, mathematics, and standardized tests.
