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.

Alison

Certified Tutor

I have had 4 years of experience providing volunteer after school tutoring to children in 1st-5th grade in an Houston ISD program that met at a church. We worked with ESL children and assisted them with English comprehension and grammar. Additionally, I spent a year as a volunteer at an after school program working in Spring Branch ISD, assisting children with reading/writing comprehension. I also helped the children in each of these programs think both critically and compassionately by reading them stories and having them discuss how they would feel if they were a character in a book and what they would do to solve the problem/s the main character of the book faced. Finally, I worked with iKidz at West U. Elementary and showed elementary age children (K-2) how letters and words relate to one other by assisting them with word puzzles.
