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.

Raquel: Medford tutor

Certified Tutor

I believe that all students can learn and deserve to learn. I also believe that education should prepare students for whatever postsecondary education they want for themselves. As an educator who has been an English teacher, a building-level literacy coach, and a district-level literacy coach, I am passionate about students engaging in literacy as a way of expanding their view of the world.

I graduated from Vanderbilt University with my undergraduate teaching dress and my Master's. I earned an Educational Specialist degree from Lipscomb University, and I am in my last year of working on my doctorate at Lipscomb as well. The area I tutor is literacy, and I love working with all of it-- the literature, the grammatical aspects, and the writing. It is hard to pick a favorite; I love it all. I am able to work with both middle school and high school students.
