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.

Ryder: Lakewood tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm a second year at The Ohio State University as part of the college of Education and Human Ecology currently studying towards a bachelor's degree in STEM Education with a minor in Mathematics. I specialize in teaching secondary education mathematics including but not limited to: Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. I've been passionate about being a math teacher since middle school due to some great role models, and I have experience volunteer tutoring for 3 years at Huntington Learning Center along with real in-class experience at Northland High School in Columbus, OH, through Ohio State's FEEP program. (First Education Experience Program). My teaching style is asking many questions, and I'm flexible in teaching a range of methods and a range of students, understanding that one method of teaching is not viable for every student, that you have to tailor your instruction as you learn how the student processes information.

I have experience with ages 3-18 and students with learning disabilities. I'm very glad to be a part of the Varsity Tutors team and teach children the fundamentals of math and hope that you'll find me a great fit for teaching you or your child.

Hobbies

For outside hobbies, I love to swim, bike, and do archery. I'm interested in the world of rock music, movies and TV, and books. I spend most of my free time either hanging out with my friends and family, or spending time alone with a good book or video game. I am somewhat proficient at piano and am currently beginning to learn the drums. I greatly enjoy learning more about the science and math that surrounds us in the world.
