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.

Hobbies

Outside of teaching, I have a deep passion for language learning, storytelling, and exploring new ways to make education engaging and accessible. I enjoy creative writing, playing word games, and using music and rhythm to bring energy into the virtual classroom. I’m also fascinated by educational technology and love discovering tools that enhance the learning experience for my students. Traveling and learning about different cultures inspire me both personally and professionally, and I often incorporate those experiences into my lessons. When I’m not teaching, you’ll likely find me reading personal development books, solving puzzles, or simply unwinding by the beach—my favorite place to relax and recharge.
