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.

Ellen: Burnsville tutor

Certified Tutor

First of all, I love to travel and learn about other cultures. That is why I started teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) in the first place. My desire as a teacher is to give my students the tools that they need to be great in whatever they do. I do that by giving them the opportunity to make mistakes and learn from them. In my classroom, I convey to my students that mistakes are okay in the classroom. Then I urge them to grow and learn from those mistakes. I believe every person can do whatever they set their mind to do, but sometimes people need a teacher to come alongside them to help them and motivate them. I am a prime example of someone who benefited from teachers who came alongside me and gave me the tools I needed to succeed, and that is what I want to do for you or your child today!
