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 love teaching and I know I can help you reach your goals!

My area of expertise is reading comprehension from children to college students. In my 23 years of teaching I have helped dyslexia students, special education students, ESL students and college students become better readers and writers. I am Texas state certified in English Language Arts, English as a Second Language, and Special Education. I am an adjunct English professor at HCC.

I have a bachelor's and master's degree, both in the arts. Since I love learning I have always studied several subjects at the same time. My areas of study have included creative writing, English, the humanities, philosophy, history and women's studies.

I can help you with reading, writing and test preparation.

Let's get some work done!
