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.

Katie: Stirling tutor

Certified Tutor

I have a passion for writing, telling stories, and helping others find a voice to do the same. I have a bachelor's degree and a master's degree from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, focusing on drama and literature. I encourage students to engage in thoughtful discussions about their assignments in order to find their voice when writing or speaking. When students have a personal investment in what they are doing, they not only want to learn, but actually retain what they learn and have fun doing it!

Every student has a different approach to learning. I like to get to know how each student learns best and tailor my tutoring accordingly.
