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.

Brian

Certified Tutor

I enjoy helping students of all ages with standardized test prep (ACT, SAT, GRE, GED, PRAXIS, and TOEFL) or with traditional school subjects like reading, social studies, and history. I am a freelance writer, so I particularly like assisting students in that area. I am very devoted to my students and try to employ humor, scholarship, and attention to detail into every tutoring relationship.

What is your teaching philosophy?

Usually, the first session is a brief review of what has worked, or not worked, in prior tutoring relationships, if applicable. Next, I prioritize the goals of the student. I also will give pre-test material to provide a baseline and to hone my teaching plan.
