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.

Courtney

Certified Tutor

I received my B.S. in biology from the University of Nebraska, Omaha (UNO) and I am currently working on a Master's in biology at the UNO. I was a teaching assistant for UNO and have taught introduction to biology labs & assisted with ecology and limnology labs. I currently volunteer at a local wetland during family orientated events and have volunteered with other organizations that focus on science outreach to k-12 students. I firmly believe each student can do well in biology, they just need the right tools. These tools, which vary between students, are based in study skills, instruction, and a positive mindset. When I am not working on my degree, I enjoy reading, listening to podcasts, and spending time in nature.
