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.

Laura: Markham tutor

Certified Tutor

The most rewarding experiences in my life have been those where I have been able to help someone who struggles with academics. In my academic years I was an introvert. It was very difficult for me to engage in questions in the class setting. I am certain I would have benefited from a tutor for some of the difficult classes I had to take to earn my science degree. It is my greatest wish to help students who may struggle as I did in the classroom setting.
