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

Since graduating with a PhD in English from Emory University, I've had the pleasure of working with students nationally and internationally, teaching American Literature to Pre-med students in China; College Writing to U.S. soldiers stationed abroad; and both Literature and Writing to university students in the American South, West, Midwest, and New England. Whether in groups or one-on-one, the best thing about tutoring is that we're all on the same team working collaboratively to achieve the same goal. Our shared purpose is your academic success, and because academic success can open so many doors, your achievements throughout life. It is extremely satisfying to accompany students along their way to realizing this potential. Though Writing and Literature are my specialties, I am well-versed in Philosophy, Theater, and Psychology at the high school and undergraduate levels.

Hobbies

When I'm not doing yoga, watching movies, gardening, learning how to cook (finally!), or hiking trails with my dogs, then I'm probably reading, which I do voraciously as I'm inexhaustibly interested in learning more about this amazing world.
