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.

Susan

Certified Tutor

After living in Maine for many years, I recently relocated to Florida to be near family and enjoy the warm sunshine. Teaching has always been close to my heart. When my boys were very young I was a tutor for adults struggling with reading and then decided to teach full time. I taught 3rd through 7th grade and especially love teaching reading and science. I have also worked for Scholastic as a reading consultant and have been a private tutor for many years. I currently work as a trainer for a software company and find that I miss the interaction with students.

I earned by bachelor's degree from Syracuse University and a Master of Literacy from the University of Southern Maine.

I believe that no matter what employment opportunities present themselves to me, I will always find a way to work with students. Currently, I look forward to my tutoring sessions every week despite working a full time job. It is a highlight of me week.
