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 master's student in Astrophysics at Tufts University and a 2017 graduate of Colgate University with a Bachelor of Arts in Astronomy/Physics. Before going back to school in the Fall of 2019 I spent time working in healthcare analytics and tutoring students in Math and Physics in the Greater New York City area. I now am available to tutor all levels of Math, Physics, Astronomy and programming in Python. I am passionate about Astronomy and truly believe that learning about the wonders of the World and Universe around us truly enriches our quality of life and education. I love seeing the "lightbulb moment" when working with students where they are able to connect the dots and overcome a particular challenge that we have been working on together and always strive to improve student outcomes whether that be mastering a new subject or polishing up their problem solving abilities, there is no greater feeling than being able to help someone learn and encourage a lifelong love of learning. When I am not tutoring or at school I can be found going on a run through Cambridge, supporting all of my (mostly terrible) New York sports teams and most recently improving my cooking and baking skills.
