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.

Melanie: Sussex tutor

Certified Tutor

Hello!!! I am so excited to help students on their journey through school! I graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Women and Gender Studies. Currently I am earning a Masters of Arts with a degree in Criminal Justice. I enjoy learning about new subjects but my absolute favorites are English and History. I have been tutoring kids and adults for 6 years and I enjoy all age groups. Many of the kids I have tutored are in elementary school but I am able to tutor anyone between the ages of 5 to adults. I enjoy tutoring English and writing the most because I was strong in this subject throughout my life. I feel that English is the foundation for other learning and it is necessary to be successful later. My tutoring style is very simple. I allow the student to lead the session and I watch to see what they need the most help on. I believe in helping the student learn but not doing everything for them. I am a bookworm and spend much of my free time reading the newest bestseller. I also enjoy spending my time with my husband and my cat!
