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

As a Kindergarten Teacher for 20 years, I have attended many workshops on how to help children learn how to read. I am passionate about teaching children to read and write. I have been trained in the Orton Gillingham Approach. This is an explicit and sequential way to teach literacy. I always implement my lessons to make them fun for the students.

I enjoy reading historical fiction books, taking our kayaks to a nearby river, being with my beautiful twin daughters, and taking beach trips. I also enjoy teaching as it is a very rewarding job. I find that teaching Kindergarten is one of the best careers because it is beautiful to see these students blossom through the year.
