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

There's a common saying that goes "Those who can't do, teach" but I believe there is a fault in those words. It should say," those who know , educate". Since childhood I always knew that I wanted to be involved in teaching in some capacity which I why I chose to become a tutor. I have strong passion for the Sciences and believe that they can be fun subjects to learn about given the right methods. So that is what I do, I find a way to relate them to my student's interest so that they not only learn and understand but also gain some form of appreciation for the subjects I am help them with.

I received my Bachelor's Degree from Xavier University of Louisiana where I majored in Biology and minored in Chemistry. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with honors in Biology, Chemistry and English. While a student there, I served as a Biology tutor and also helped students in other subjects such as Chemistry and Physics. After graduating, I attended the University of Maryland School of Medicine with hopes of becoming a doctor but I ended up learning that that is not where my passion lies. Therefore, I am about to pursue a Masters in Biology and then go on to get a PhD so that I can do research and teach.

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy various pastimes such as listening to music, traveling and engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking. I am a bit of a movie and music buff so I love to quote movies and song lyrics. I also believe in challenging myself to do new things that cause to me to face my fears. All in all, I love to live and enjoy life just as much as I love to teach/tutor.
