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

I am a pre-med student at Vanderbilt University majoring in Medicine, Health, and Society, and I am also completing a bachelor's degree in Microbiology through online coursework at the University of Florida. I have privately tutored children in Nashville in subjects like English reading and comprehension, and I've helped high school students prepare for the ACT, AP exams, and college admission applications.

While I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about English language and literature, as well as biology. I also enjoy assisting students with standardized testing and college applications because I went through that process on my own in high school. I know how overwhelming the process can feel, and I'm passionate about sharing what I've learned to help others succeed.

My tutoring style is supportive and student-centered. I aim to build confidence by meeting students where they are and helping them break down complex topics into manageable pieces. I believe learning should feel motivating and tailored to each student's unique needs and goals, which is why I focus on understanding how each student learns best and adapting my approach to fit their style.
