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 dedicated educator with a Master's in Secondary Educational Curriculum and Administration from Longwood University, I bring over 5 years of tutoring experience alongside my extensive classroom background. My specialties encompass Adult Literacy, Creative Writing, English Grammar and Syntax, and a variety of Social Sciences which include American History, Economics, and World History and Civics where I strive to cultivate critical thinking and effective communication skills. I am passionate about creating a supportive learning environment that fosters curiosity and individual growth. My student-centered approach emphasizes differentiation, allowing me to tailor lessons to diverse learning needs while engaging students through interactive activities. I encourage learners to explore their unique styles, which not only empowers them to take ownership of their education but also fosters an appreciation for the varied ways others learn. Outside the classroom, my interests in philosophy and history, complemented by my travels across the globe, enrich my teaching and inspire deeper connections with the material.
