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.

Michelle

Certified Tutor

I am currently a sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania. I am studying the Biological Basis of Behavior on a pre-medicine track. For 3 years in high school, I worked at the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Albuquerque as a primary instructor, and then eventually as Head of Primary Instruction and Corrections. I have a broad range of experience in tutoring different age ranges, from working with young children learning to read to adults working on brushing up their math skills. I have a strong background in both math and reading, but excel especially in reading and writing. I am a firm believer that students all learn differently, and that there are different ways to tailor their education to suit them better. I also believe that there are multiple ways to explain any single concept, and that if a student is having trouble, there will be another way to explain it to them that may make more sense. In my free time, I like to dance, binge-watch Netflix, make elaborate recipes from Pinterest, and sing.
