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 graduate of Vanderbilt, The Univ. of Cincinnati, The Univ. of Denver, Washington State Univ. and Wright State Univ. I have an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering, masters degrees in Materials Science, Business Admin, Statistics, and Industrial Engineering, and a PhD in Business Administration. Work has taken me to Georgia, Taipei Taiwan, central Washington state, Hawaii, western Texas, Toledo, Kalamazoo, and Winona WI. After spending ~5 years as an engineer for the Air Force and Lockheed Martin, I spent a dozen years as a Management professor, and now I'm back doing engineering as an Industrial Engineering consultant. I've also supported differently-enabled and developmentally disabled individuals for pay and as a volunteer across my career, and I spent . I also spent some time (~1 year) teaching and tutoring Chinese children in English, as a volunteer Big Brother, and as a member of the Tokelauan School in Hawaii singing in Tokelauan and dancing with children and young adults. I am a recent arrival to this tutoring-online thing, but my teaching style included a large tutoring component, and I can tutor a broad range of subjects, including math, statistics, Excel, English, writing, and chess. I think learning should be fun and I believe tutoring can be its own reward as I get excited when I can enable someone to calmly and confidently do something that they couldn't do before.
