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

Being a tutor is a job not to be taken lightly. It requires passion, dedication, a love of learning and teaching, and also patience. A tutor is someone who is non-judgmental and one who is able to place himself/herself in a student's shoes. A good relationship between a tutor and his/her students is also of the utmost importance. My tutoring style consists of creating objectives for each lesson, providing check points along the lesson to ensure understanding, and explaining a subject in more than one way. I also summarize the lesson at the end and provide learning pearls as well as mnemonics to make it easier for my students to grasp the concepts. I also like to see how a student approaches a given problem before I can guide them into the right direction. My hobbies include sports and fitness, music, and reading. My long term goal is to become an educator and/or a public speaker.
