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.

Hobbies

My biggest hobby is music; I have been singing in choirs since I was nine, and I also play the flute and the sousaphone. I love to spend time outdoors whether it's to hike, swim, take care of my goats and chickens, or just to lay out in the sun with a good book. I also like to cook, make collages, and run.
