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.

Alyson

Certified Tutor

Beginning as early as high school, I have been tutoring and teaching elementary and middle school students. My passion is educating youth and inspiring them to love learning!

I started in high school as a summer camp assistant and an after school tutor. During my undergraduate degree at Emory University, I continued to tutor after school while pursuing my Bachelor's in Psychology. I then went on to get my teaching certificate and a Master's degree in Elementary Education from Arizona State University. After earning my degree, I began teaching a combined 3rd and 4th grade classroom. I was a classroom teacher for four years and in that time, I taught multiple grade levels and subject areas. I now work for Arizona Science Center focusing on STEM education.

I firmly believe that all students can learn and that all students can be successful! Everyone learns in their own unique way and the job of a tutor is to scaffold content, so that the content best matches the style of the students' learning.


Thank you.
