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 Ransom Fox, a dedicated tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Public Administration from George Mason University, complemented by a minor in Legal Studies and coursework in Economics at the University of Oxford. While I don't have formal tutoring experience, I have over two years of working with middle school students as a football coach, where I taught not only technical skills but also essential life lessons. My current job in the federal government has honed my ability to break down complex topics into digestible concepts, a skill I believe is vital for effective tutoring. I am particularly passionate about high school and middle school civics, history, economics, reading, and writing. I also took seven AP courses myself and am passionate about helping students think critically at a college-esque level. I strive to create an engaging learning environment that fosters curiosity and critical thinking. My goal is to inspire students to not only understand the material but to develop a lifelong love for literature, civic engagement, economics, and learning in general! I look forward to making a positive impact on my students' academic journeys.
