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.

Sophelia: West Sacramento tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary. I received my Master's of Arts degree in Theology/Ministry; a double major. I am also a graduate of College of Biblical Studies. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in theology. I am currently a PhD student at Walden University with a focus on Human and Social Services/Nonprofit Admin. While I have tutored in a broad arrange of subjects including English, Reading and History, I am most passionate about Essay Writing and Public Speaking. I would describe my teaching philosophy and tutoring style as creative. For example, I design my tutoring sessions with the client's academic goals as a focal point. In other words, each tutoring session is unique just as each student is unique. I am a firm advocate of higher education, however, I believe that the learning process can be both challenging and rewarding. In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, music, writing poetry, swimming, and of course spending quality time with family and friends. I look forward to assisting you with your academic journey.

What is your teaching philosophy?

The technique that I use to ensure that the student understands the material is for the student to roll play. In short, I ask the student to play back what they heard. Reflective listening is a great learning tool to gauge where the student is in their academic process. Also, I will ask the student to practice their newly acquired knowledge, during our tutorial session. Practice and repetition are the mother of learning.
