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.

John Hammond: Glenview tutor

Certified Tutor

My goal is to make the student a writer. Good writing requires a broad vocabulary and excellent reading comprehension, two crucial elements for SAT, ACT, and Advanced Placement exam preparation. Proper study of the liberal arts demands analytical and concise prose, a proficiency necessary for competitive application essays. It is my hope that my passion for history and English will inspire the student to shape their writing into a clear, engaged, and informed voice.
With this writing-centric focus, I offer SAT, ACT, and AP exam preparation, tutoring in the liberal arts (English, history, political science, etc.), and consultation on application essays.
