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

Hello, my name is Tara and I am a mother and wife living in the Virginia Beach area. I currently teach ESL online and have my 120 hour TESOL certification from International Open Academy. I've been teaching ESL for 2 years now and I am very familiar with how to teach English to non native speakers. I look forward to helping you in any way I can as you proceed towards mastering the English language. Keep up the good work! I have always enjoyed teaching, so I believe tutoring will be a great fit for me. I use a whiteboard, flashcards, magnetic alphabet and props when I teach. I also have stuffed animals and a map. I can teach a diversity of levels, so whether you are just starting or have studied English for a couple years- I am sure I can help you! I like to laugh and I am good with children and adults too. I think quickly on my feet, I'm flexible and patient. All the important qualities for tutoring ESL.
