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.

Ian

Certified Tutor

Hello! My name is Ian Katsnelson and I am a current Junior at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, double majoring in Biology and Political Science. Being in a highly competitive Biology Honors program at my University gives me the knowledge and resources I need to help my students excel. I am heavily involved in my University Government as a Student Senator representing all Life Sciences majors. I have had internships at AbbVie (a major pharmaceutical company) in addition to local (County Board), State (Governor), and federal (U.S. House) political campaigns. I am an extremely excited person in general, and so I hope some of my excitement can be shared with you while we learn! I have over three years of Undergraduate Student tutoring experience in different subject areas relating to both of my college majors, and I look forward to meeting you (virtually of course)!
