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.

Certified Tutor

I am a PhD student working on Photonics. I completed my Master's degree in Physics and an Advanced Master's in Space Studies. I have been involved with various Experimental Particle Physics projects and Space Instrumentation for the past 10 years. I love to logically understand the nature around us. I have contributed to a variety of projects including particle detector design to detect neutrinos and a novel optical technology to image exoplanets. I have been tutoring for 5 years and I really enjoy it. I love students coming up with amazing questions that make me think and keep my curiosity alive. In the past, I have also held a Teaching Assistant position, teaching undergraduate first-year laboratory at the University of Victoria, Canada. I enjoy teaching Physics and Maths from middle school to University First years. I tailor my teaching methods based on the student's requirements and their level and that helps me to develop a strong bonding with my students.
