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.

Sarah

Certified Tutor

I'm currently a master's student studying computer science at the University of Pennsylvania with a B.S. from Georgetown in science, tech, and international affairs (STIA). Previously, I worked as a data analyst (think SQL, R, and Excel) supporting forensic accountants and prosecutors with fraud investigations.

My goal as a tutor is to draw from my diverse experiences and help students see the value of interdisciplinary education. I am particularly passionate about introducing computer science and data analytics skills to students at an earlier age, as well as to students who come from non-STEM backgrounds.

My teaching approach centers on grasping the intuition behind a concept, rather than repeating rote concepts. I enjoy a back-and-forth conversational style with my students, instead of a one-sided lecture, and am always seeking to adapt my approach to each learners' preference!
