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.

Nick: Clifton tutor

Certified Tutor

I have taught and tutored at the elementary school, middle school and collegiate levels.

I was a public school teacher for four years in Arlington, VA where I taught grades 1-5. We covered the basics, from spelling and reading, to comprehension, presentation skills and state-wide test preparation.

After being an elementary school teacher, I moved to middle school in Arlington, VA where I spent one year with 6-8 graders in special ed. We covered U.S./World History, Astronomy, Geography, Chemistry, and Advanced Reading & Writing Comprehension.

I left teaching to pursue my MBA at American University, where I became a Marketing GA, helped run the behavioral lab and taught a few Marketing 101 classes to freshman.

Outside of teaching and tutoring, I love going to new exhibits at the National Gallery of Art, Nationals games, Georgetown basketball games and spending time with my friends and family.

I was born and raised in Washington, DC and have been fortunate enough to travel to many countries around the world.

I teach the way I like to be taught; by doing the work and searching for alternative perspectives to increase my understanding.
