What prompted you to seek tutoring?

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

Hi,
My primary teaching experience is with preschool through 6th grade special education students. I have worked at public and private schools in general education as well as special education. I have tutored students primarily in reading.

I am certified to teach in Ohio and Texas. I am able to renew my Indiana license if needed.
Ohio- Intervention Specialist (SPED k-6)(recently expired, plan to renew)
Indiana- El. Ed. and Special Ed.
(renewable)
Texas-El. Ed.(current)


My preference is to tutor remedial reading to students in K- 3rd grade and older students who function at the Elementary School level. I tailor tutoring sessions to specific needs of students and incorporate their interests.

Note: I am working as a remedial tutor on this platform, as opposed to a teacher. (I do spend time planning, and uploading materials before each session even though prep time is not compensated).
