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.

Sarah: Wake County tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Lawrence University in Wisconsin, where I earned a Physics degree. It was there that I discovered my passion for tutoring, which led me into teaching. I taught Physics at several schools in California before my life took a different direction, though in my corporate work I have always relished the opportunity to help teach my colleagues technical skills. My teaching philosophy centers on an individualized approach, with a strong emphasis on cognitive modeling as a tool to enable students to learn how to reason through a problem - a vital skill, not only in math and science, but in life in general. I hold a deep love for physics, math, and astronomy, and also enjoy inorganic chemistry. In my spare time I enjoy reading and writing speculative fiction, as well as swimming, cooking, and fiber crafts.

I am deeply interested in human psychology, history, and innovation. This has led me to hobbies including reading and writing character-driven fiction, and historical textile recreation and analysis. I also love learning about world languages and cultures, and am grateful that the Internet allows me to do this without leaving home.
