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

This past spring I was a lecturer at Gettysburg College, teaching two sections of the non-majors course "Biological Basis of Disease". I received my PhD in biology in 2014 from the Johns Hopkins University. I completed my dissertation work in the lab of Dr. Joel Schildbach. I was a 2012-2013 Dean's Teaching Fellow in the Biology Department at Johns Hopkins University. Last fall, I was a lecturer at Johns Hopkins University, teaching the freshman only seminar "The Human Microbiome".

This course was a modified version of the course I taught as a Dean's Teaching Fellow. I have also been a teaching assistant for various other courses, including Biochemistry, the freshman only lab course Phage Hunters, and others. I have tutored for graduate level biophysics, and been involved with teaching or tutoring for the past 4 years.
