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 Northwestern University graduate and received my Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Robotics. I have had experience with tutoring middle and high school students in Standardized Tests as well as helping incoming freshmen acclimate to the college environment as a Peer Advisor. Due to my concentration in STEM subject matter, I am most trained in teaching Math and Physics, though open to tutoring outside just those two subjects. I believe that working on one's education outside of regular school hours shows an incredible initiative to learn, and I want to encourage this drive for learning in my students.
