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.

Karon: Newport News tutor

Certified Tutor

I have been an educator since 1993. I am certified in English grades 6th 12th, but I have worked with all grade level. I earned a B.A. in Political Science from Florida Atlantic University. I earned a M.A. in English from Nova Southeastern University (NSU). I have some doctoral work in higher education and curriculum instruction. I teach 11th and 12th grade English, and I teach SAT, ACT, GRE at Florida Atlantic University.
I believe learning should be a process that is tailored to the individual student. For this to be achieved, a variety of learning options should be offered. Some students are drawn to words, other students pictures, while even more may need audio or a hands on learning experience. Regardless of style or preference of learning, gaining knowledge is a valuable commodity that I hope to encourage students to take full advantage of by understanding that we are all lifelong learners.
