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 earned my undergraduate degrees in History and English in 2000 from the University of Memphis and my Masters of Arts in Teaching from Ole Miss in 2005. I have been teaching since 2001. I currently teach 6th grade social studies and science in Desoto County. I enjoy the individual time that I get with students and seeing them reach their academic goals. I like to help spark a skill or feed curiosity for whatever the student finds interesting to earn.

What is your teaching philosophy?

Once a student masters the basics of reading and writing, other skills and information are only limited by the imagination that chooses to seek them.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

I will, hopefully, have some information about the student's goals both for the session that day and long term. We should spend a few minutes verifying those goals and then get to work on them.
