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

It's not boring. Really! I like to teach and talk about U.S. History, Economics, and U.S. Government. In fact, ALL of those fit together. don't they?? I believe our history helps explain how and why things are the way they are today. When people say "How did this happen?" or "Why do we do it this way"? or "the Electoral College...?", I want to talk about it and explain how it happened, or why we do it, or what the Electoral College is all about. Yes, I watch the News (too much) and try to figure out what's going on - and why. They Why is important! I'll enjoy working with students and talking through important issues of the day.

Hobbies

Since the pandemic began, I've found that I like to bake! I started with bread, but cakes and pies are a lot of fun. Cooking is transformative! Ingredients change when you put them together. Fun to watch! When something doesn't come out right, I try to figure out what happened and how to fix it next time. Good or bad, I let my wife try it anyway.
