What prompted you to seek tutoring?

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.

What is your teaching philosophy?

To help students build understanding from the foundations of even the most difficult concepts.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

Find out what's important to that student, ask a few questions about activities they enjoy doing, and how they would best like me to help them learn.

How can you help a student become an independent learner?

By showing students that even the most advanced concepts can be understood by breaking them down, I aim to help them realize their own power to learn.

How would you help a student stay motivated?

By reminding them of the goals they set for themselves, whether those be a high ACT score or admission into a prestigious college, or even just increasing a letter grade in a class.
