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.

James

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Political Science and a minor in Economic Policy. After graduating, I began tutoring a wide range of clients in reading, math, and other cognitive skills with a company called LearningRx in Green Bay, WI. I also have taught guitar and bass guitar for the past year. I have experience teaching both children and adults, and I enjoy working with any student who is in need of educational enrichment. My teaching philosophy is that I am a coach, mentor, and resource to my students. My responsibility is to help them build independent confidence and mastery over their academic pursuits. In addition to being a tutor, I am a working musician. I also enjoy spending time with my family and reading.
