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.

Michael: Des Plaines tutor

Certified Tutor

I have a twin sister that I have assisted with school work my entire life, inspiring me to try to help other students like her who struggle with STEM classes. I have experience working in both community service and mentoring clubs in high school, in addition to volunteering at summer camps. My favorite subject is chemistry, but I enjoy tutoring all things math and physics, too. I am currently enrolled at the University of Southern California, working towards my bachelor's in Pharmacology and Drug Development before continuing on to get my PharmD. I believe that I am capable of explaining topics in a variety of fashions to provide my students with an approach best suited to their learning style.
