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.

Alyssa

Certified Tutor

I received my Bachelor of Science at Cornell University in 2017. My focus was Interdisciplinary Studies, Biology, and Inequality Studies. Since graduation, I took two years to participate in Teach for America where I taught high school juniors and seniors in Anatomy and Physiology. After school was dedicated to helping those who were having additional troubles in Science. In 2023, I received my DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) from Howard University College of Dentistry. I am now a General Dentist in Atlanta, GA. I am most passionate about Science and Education as the two are both correlated and severely lacking in the minority community. Teaching and learning Science provides me a way to expand my own knowledge in the field while influencing those younger than me to become interested in the STEM field. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling around Washington, DC trying different cuisine, reading, music, and outdoor activities!
