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

My passion has always been to help students of any age reach their learning goals and reach their highest potential. I am excited to continue doing this through the Varsity Tutors platform. I am a certified bilingual elementary school teacher with endorsements that extend into middle school and high school in the subjects of Spanish as a world language, Spanish literacy and writing, and Social Studies. I was in my most recent position for five years as a dual language teacher instructing all elementary core subjects in English and Spanish. I also have experience teaching adults at the college and university level. For two years I worked as a graduate teaching assistant for the department of Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese at the University of Illinois in Urbana Champaign. I taught online hybrid courses that met twice per week for a discussion section. Those courses were Intensive Elementary Spanish (Span. 122) and Intermediate Spanish (Span. 103). I am happy to help any students struggling in any of the subjects which are listed in my profile.
