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

I am a credentialed teacher with 15 years experience teaching and tutoring students. What sets me apart from other tutors is my experience teaching in a variety of academic environments with students from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds. I have developed effective teaching strategies that enable each and every student to achieve academic success. I have successfully taught both gifted students as well as students who have learning disabilities

My specialty is science (Biology,Chemistry,Earth Science, Physical Science) but I am comfortable and have experience tutoring and teaching all subjects at the middle levels including math. I am passionate about tutoring because it allows me to witness genuine academic and personal growth in my students. I am organized, professional and have an outstanding work ethic.

In my spare time I volunteer with a local animal rescue and foster homeless animals. I also love to cook, eat and roller blade on the beach.
