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

The primary subject that I teach and tutor is Public Speaking. This is my favorite to introduce and guide a student through what can be a pretty intimidating subject to tackle.

To introduce a student to their voice and the power that their voice has in its ability to carry them through life is my goal. By using body language, self-awareness, confidence building, proper grammar, these are a few of the things I will lead your student in.

My teaching style is purely based on communication. I want to help the student identify what they would like to gain from my class and talk about how to achieve it together. I am an open conversationalist and a teacher who wants to listen. This class takes teamwork within the class and self-motivation from the student.

I am a homeschool mom of two boys ages 14 and 16. Together we love being outdoors discovering the urban trails of our hometown. To be on the water is a love of mine with kayaking as my pure joy away from home.

I have taught and worked in the public school system and have taught Public Speaking in our homeschool community for the past two years.

I am a student myself and currently am working towards my Master's Degree in Social Work. It's never to early or late to learn. I'm passionate about doing it alongside my students.
