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.

Hello. Bom dia. Ola. Bonjour to everyone.

I would like to welcome you to this little piece of me. I truly am excited that you are reading this. My avatar cant be as excited as I am!

I want to share a few things about me that might help us understand each other better. As the eldest in my family, I put even more pressure on myself to do better than great than my parents did. I have been an energetic goofball all of my life and learned to be an effective scholar and charismatic companion at the same time. Seriously, I was (well maybe still am) the class clown since kindergarten. I always performed well in class and in physical education. My struggle was humbling myself so I could learn in a way that would help me retain information as well as be interested in the subjects I was studying. This was something I worked on A LOT in college.

I wont say Im there yet, but Im sure my colleagues and professional accomplishments would say otherwise. I make sure to cherish where I came from, what Im capable of right now, and how I want to evolve tomorrow. I look at situations from many angles so I can understand others point of view and be able to help others interpret and understand the topic. Outside of that, I cheer for people making progress which is something I never appreciated until learning became difficult for me (if you are curious, ask me about learning gymnastics at age 22).

Did I lose any of you? Well, if I did, they are probably Googling people that still use the word goofball. What I hope to show you is that I am a healthy mix of philosophy, education, and humor. One minute, I am advising you in how to restructure your sentences. Another minute, we are analyzing the comedic timing of a single-clap applause. In all cases, I am a person to make whatever we are discussing relevant to the task at hand. I look forward to sharing and learning with you as you look forward to it as well.
