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.

Dan

Certified Tutor

Hello! I recently gradated with a Master's in science from the Plant Biology and Conservation program at Northwestern University. Through teaching assistantships and grading I have gained extensive experience in teaching biological concepts to students. Biology is not straight memorization. To perform well on exams, you must be able to interact with and explain complex mechanisms. I aim to help you in doing so.

In addition to biology I am able to teach math and writing; skills that I have honed during my undergraduate education, at Hamilton College (same guy as the musical).

In my free time I enjoy training for marathons and collecting insects!
