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.

Uma

Certified Tutor

I have graduated from Rice University and will be starting medical school at Virginia Tech Carilion this fall (2022). In my gap year, I was a research enrollment analyst at Baylor Scott and White Health in Texas working at the cardiology department. I have a keen interest in pediatrics and oncology. I have extensive experience tutoring, as a third year intern at Girlstart, a nonprofit organization aimed towards educating young girls in STEM subjects in order to reduce the gender gap seen in corporate America. I am most passionate about biology and chemistry. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students.
