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.

Mark: Virginia tutor

Certified Tutor

Teaching students is my passion. I have been teaching and coaching for 20 years. I have taught General Education, Special Education, High School, Middle School, and Elementary students. I received my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Eastern Michigan University, and am currently a Doctoral student there as well.
Outside of teaching I like to coach. I have coached Football, Men's and Women's Basketball, Softball, and Baseball, although currently I am only coaching Football. My major hobby is Reading. I enjoy reading almost anything, but I particularly like Historical novels and Biographical novels.
My reason for tutoring is to provide support for students who are currently experiencing difficulty in a subject area where I may be able to help. My background in Special Education has taught me to look at teaching from different outlooks to help students achieve success, instead of attacking a subject from just one direction.
