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.

Erika: Sugar Land tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a high school science teacher, and I am excited to help students learn science! Currently I teach high school Biology and Marine Science- I have also taught Chemistry, Robotics, and Environmental Science. My favorite subject to tutor is Biology, because even after all these years studying it, I find Biology to be fascinating.

I have a B.A. in Biology from McDaniel College, and a M.Ed. from the University of Maryland. Prior to teaching, I was a lab assistant at a USDA research facility, working on biocontrol of plant diseases. I have been teaching science for 14 years in various settings- public and private school, small group programs, camps, and tutoring.

Outside of teaching, I spend a lot of time with my 3 kids and husband. I also enjoy reading, knitting, hiking, and camping.
