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 feel that being an elementary school teacher or tutor, is one of great value and of a great deal of purpose in this lifetime. The reason I feel so strongly about being an elementary tutor, is because it is the foundation towards where education begins. As a teacher of the elementary studies, is where I can be there to mold students to enjoy learning, through being able to get all the students to learn through fun and exciting ways. I believe that if I am tutoring a child, and I show the child to keep trying and to never give up, then this will then reflect on that child as they grow up to always give their full best efforts into everything that they do in life. I am here to teach, tutor, and to nurture all young children into growing academically, so that they can all have bigger and brighter futures.
