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?

I motivate students and give them the reason why to excel. I lead by example and use multisensory techniques.

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

I like to find a student's deficits and strengths, and create a good working relationship with the student and their family.
