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 am a current professional in the medical sciences within the Twin Cities who would like to help you succeed in your learning goals. During my four years of college, I majored in the Biological Sciences and actively worked with students on-campus. I have a passion for teaching others and helping students of all ages.

I am looking forward to working with students interested in the learning process, willing to make mistakes, and also students who can accept that learning is an active process where the student and tutor work together to understand a concept, and then continually work on similar examples until the student is able to make connections from basic concepts to relatable examples on their own. I enjoy being a part of this process, and find it highly rewarding to see a student connect the dots after hard work. Learning isn't easy, but with enough practice and dedication, you can do it!
