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.

Diane: Tennessee tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a retired K-3 public school teacher for 30+ years. I am a mother to 8 grown children and was a foster parent for 30+ years. I may not be in the classroom anymore, but my heart is still full of passion for educating children. Learning to read is the most important skill to master in childhood. I have witnessed the importance of high quality phonics instruction firsthand and, thanks to my abundant experience in the field, know that I can help address this need.
