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 look forward to building successful learning relationships with my students! I strive to meet students where they are ready to learn, establish reasonable learning goals and celebrate their learning successes. As a semi-retired teacher, my schedule is flexible, so feel free to suggest a time/place that is convenient for you. I have had the opportunity to work with students with diverse learner needs for over thirty five years. I am also a University of Phoenix instructor in the Education Department where I facilitate future teachers in the areas of reading, special education and gifted education.

My home and family is in Tucson, and we love the U of A!
