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.

Hobbies

Beyond tutoring, I find joy in a diverse range of hobbies that enrich my life. Meditation is my anchor, a practice that fosters clarity and balance amid life's complexities. On the court, you'll often find me playing pickleball, relishing the competitive yet enjoyable spirit of the game. When I'm not tutoring or on the court, I treasure quality time with my wife, savoring moments of connection and shared experiences. My furry companions, our dogs, bring boundless joy—I love engaging with them, whether it's playful romps or serene walks. Fitness is a cornerstone of my routine; lifting weights invigorates both body and mind. And nestled in quiet corners, you'll catch me immersed in captivating books, exploring worlds and ideas beyond the ordinary. Each of these pursuits adds depth and balance to my life, allowing me to bring a vibrant perspective to my tutoring approach.
