Much of my tutoring background is in test-prep and essay coaching, which I enjoy because it allows the tutor and student to think strategically together, and work as a team to achieve concrete results. I have worked with students ranging in age from 6-32, and believe that, in an educational context, a few jokes never hurt anybody. I love reading and learning, and my...

Wendy ...pursue some personal ambitions and to focus on tutoring students one-on-one. I love helping students make connections between the known and the unknown. Being a Varsity Tutor means that I get to have that experience and work with students week after week to see personal growth.

Meg ...important to me as a teacher that I also value their input. There must be an opportunity to take ownership of their learning.

I understand that everyone thinks differently and at different speeds. I want my students to end their sessions...
