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.

Elise: Durham tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a current student at the O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University's Indianapolis campus. I am currently finishing my Bachelor's degree while also taking Master's level courses, and I will begin a PhD program in Public Policy in the fall of 2020. I work as a research assistant to two professors on campus, and my specific research area is climate policy. I will be coauthoring a paper with each of them this year. I am a lifelong learner and educator; I love learning new things and I love finding ways to share knowledge! My favorite subjects to teach and discuss are those related to government, politics, economics, and social sciences, but I genuinely simply enjoy interacting with other learners and finding the best way for students to understand information. I also REALLY love algebra and any opportunity to teach it. I have tutored all ages from 5 to 45, and am excited to help meet your needs. I have a wealth of educational resources to draw from to help you become successful in your academic pursuits!
