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 am passionate about education and helping students achieve their potential. I attended Rice University in Houston, TX where I majored in History and Political Science. After graduating, I taught World and AP World History in Houston for four years. As a tutor, I specialize in helping students prepare for the ACT and the AP World History exams, and have a great deal of experience in helping students improve their writing and reading ability. I am also able to tutor students for the SAT as well as history and English courses. I am planning to return to school to earn my M.A. in Education. I have proven success in preparing students for standardized examinations and believe that all students are capable of growth and improvement. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, skiing, and playing soccer, video games and Dungeons + Dragons.
