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.

Cathryn: Lakewood tutor

Certified Tutor

"Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end."

Hi! I'm Catey. I am a work-at-home mom to three boys. I have a bachelor's degree in Psychology, a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction: Applied Behavior Analysis, and a master's degree in Family and Human Development, all from Arizona State University. I have taught as an instructional aide for K-6th grade special education. I have been a tutor for K-12, and I have been a professor assistant for undergraduate and graduate students. I also work in behavior analysis as a clinical intern.

I teach all subjects, but am especially passionate about psychology, human development, algebra, and elementary school math and reading. I also specialize in APA format for writing research papers.

Every person is different and no one learns the same way. I am an avid believer that every person should be taught to their needs.

Some of my hobbies outside of academia include playing (and teaching) piano, violin, and bass guitar. I own a photography and graphic design business, which is more of a side passion.

Fun fact: My husband grows cranberries.
