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

For me, those moments when students "get it" and figure out the problem or the concept they have been working to understand is magical. I enjoy helping students grow more confident and curious!

I've been a science teacher at both the middle and high school levels and have taught all science subjects at one time or another. I hold a B.S. degree from Arizona State University and a masters degree in science education from Montana State University. I also hold a JD.

My general philosophy is to focus on making science interesting, which means emphasizing both the practical applications and the fun.

I am fairly flexible when it comes to meeting times and locations.

I look forward to working with you!
