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.

Serena

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate from UCLA who majored in Biology and minored in Global Health. During my time at UCLA, I tutored student athletes in math, history, physics, and many more subjects. My passion from teaching was clear after I was able to see my students succeed in their college level courses. I have a lot of experience tutoring all ages of students from elementary school to college. Even in high school I was a tutor helping middle school students with pre-calculus. Right now, I am tutoring elementary school students in math, reading and English. I have all the materials ready for your elementary school student to start and improve right away! I motivate younger students by getting them excited about the content, and each of my students look forward to their sessions. I will be starting medical school in the fall, so my expertise lies with most premed courses, as well as English and Reading for personal statement writing help. I am strong in all subjects encompassing math: algebra, pre-calculus and calculus. I am an individual who truly believes that tutoring provides the extra help necessary for any student to succeed in what they put their mind to. With just a little help, only you can explore what you are truly possible of achieving. To me, there is nothing better than building a student's confidence on a subject they were not as strong in!

Hobbies

I love listening to different genres of music. My interests encompass everything from country, pop, and rap all the way to classical. I have been playing the piano for over 12 years, and love to find sheet music to play my favorite songs on the radio. I am also an avid Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy fan as anything with trivia is right up my alley!
