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.

Aletha

Certified Tutor

I hold a B.A. in Speech Communication with a focus in Theater from Shippensburg University. Since graduating, I've taught across elementary, secondary, and special needs education as a substitute teacher, and more recently, I've been tutoring students from preschool through high school in a variety of subjects. My passion lies in teaching beginner piano, music theory (3rd grade and up), reading, English literature, history, and creative writing. I specialize in helping struggling students overcome learning challenges and reach their full potential. I also incorporate the principles of the Law of Assumption into my teaching, encouraging students to use imagination and inner dialogue to shape their academic success. With persistence and conscious thought, achievement becomes not just possiblebut inevitable.
