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.

Sarah

Certified Tutor

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Biology, focusing on marine and molecular biology, and I am currently finishing my Masters thesis in Zoology with a focus on marine genomics at Oregon State University. I have informally tutored my friends in various subjects since high school, and taught a series of introductory biology labs at Oregon State University for a year. I love interacting with students, especially in more focused settings like small groups or one on one. I have worked with young children through science outreach programs. I tutor a variety of science subjects as well as French, my native language, but my favorite subject is biology because I am fascinated by the diversity of adaptations in the living world. I work with students by making concepts relatable to them and explaining how and why things work a certain way, whether it's math problems or biology vocabulary. This approach solidifies concepts that might otherwise fall through the cracks. I believe that anyone can learn anything! In my spare time, I am an avid collector of trivia about strange marine invertebrates, am a scuba diver, and enjoy playing board games and baking.
