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

I am a certified English Language Arts teacher specializing in grades 6-12. I obtained my New Jersey Instructional Certificate of Eligibility with an endorsement in English in 2024. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from New Jersey City University. I earned my Associate of Arts in Elementary and Secondary Education from Tulsa Community College. It has been my lifelong dream to become a teacher. I believe each student is a unique individual who deserves to be treated as such. A one-size-fits-all approach to education does not work for everyone, and I believe students deserve more specialized, differentiated instruction that addresses their individual needs, interests, learning styles, strengths, and weaknesses. I hope to provide such instruction through my tutoring and teaching.

I love reading and writing. You can typically find me cuddled up with a good book, a cup of tea, and my two cats. I also like to play video games from time to time. I enjoy reading and writing creative nonfiction and poetry. I hope to inspire a love for these writing styles in my students!
