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.

I am a retired mathematics teacher with over 45 years of experience helping students to learn and enjoy mathematics and statistics. I have degrees in mathematics and mathematics education from Ball State and Purdue Universities. I view math as a puzzle and we simply need to determine what are the missing pieces so we can complete and understand the task.
