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.

Simon: Sussex tutor

Certified Tutor

I love education. I love learning and I love helping others learn. I am very friendly and committed to helping others around me.

I studied History and International Relations in college and my fascination with people, their cultures and their stories led me to travel the world. Through these travels, I have taught students of all ages in a variety of settings and disciplines. I have several years' teaching experience and enjoy the energy and dynamism of the classroom as well as the unique challenges and rewards that come with tutoring.

I am currently pursuing my Master of Education degree at Temple University as well as a Master's in TESOL. I have taken many interesting classes covering topics such as "Models of Teaching," "Designing Curriculum and Assessment in TESOL," and "Child and Adolescent Behavior." I have also conducted field work at Olney Elementary School, Lower Merion High School, Constitution High School, Tacony Academy Charter School and Eastern State Penitentiary.

I am a tireless worker who is committed to being the best teacher I can be and who enjoys teaching children and adults alike. I will work hard to ensure that you achieve your learning objectives. This won't be easy but if we work together, I am sure we can accomplish our goals.
