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

A love of learning can be sparked from a very young age, and if nurtured properly, can create a pathway of freedom to be confident in any subject. In my shared learning space, I am open to lots of questions and invite positive attitudes, which break the mental barrier of thinking something is unknowable or not understandable. I often tell my students: "When something is hard, that means your brain is growing!"

Over the years I have realized that the key to education is a love of learning. I credit my journey in homeschooling my children (for the last nine years!) in the classical education model for this discovery. Every day I strive to increase not just knowledge, but to model for my children a love of learning and a humility that comes along with learning and gaining wisdom. I have taught small classes of all ages over the years, where I have helped to foster this openness and curiosity to many learners. For the past three years in a virtual classroom, I have also taught English as a foreign language to children as young as four and adults old enough to admit they didn't have their teeth in (I was wondering why she couldn't pronounce that one phoneme)!

I currently tutor elementary school reading and writing. I also tutor English as a foreign Language.
