Who needs tutoring?
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

I love math and I love teaching math! I really enjoy working with students and helping them understand math. When a student would come to me in the beginning of the semester and be convinced that they never could learn math, I would tell them that is it not true. I would tell them to just give me a chance and I will teach you math! And then at the end of the semester when they would come to me and say, "I never thought I could ever understand math but I do now and it is amazing, thank you!", I would just smile. Now that I am retired I still want to help students learn math. It is what I love to do!

Hobbies

We have a large family, 5 children and 11 grandchildren so they keep me busy outside of teaching/tutoring math. We also have a dog and a cat and we walk the dog everyday and I really love to walk at the park in the wooded areas! I also enjoy playing board games, reading and folk dancing.
