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

I am a graduate of Southern Oregon University. I recieved a Bachelor of Arts in English and Writing. I have taught English as a Foreign Language at an elementary school in China, K-6 science with Americorps in Oregon and Idaho and English as a Second Language at a college in Chicago. I have enjoyed success with a wide range of students; seeing their skills develop is something in which I take pride. I believe education is vital to a well-rounded life and I try to ingrain that in my students. Outside tutoring sessions and classrooms, I enjoy playing guitar, drums, watching sports with friends and riding a bicycle.
