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

Since 2018 I have been an Online Teacher for international students and U.S. based learners. Prior to this I served as a 3rd grade Instructional Team Leader, and Classroom Teacher for about 7 years.

I am certified, with endorsements in Special Education, Early Childhood, Elementary and ESOL. My Master's degree is in ESL, which has helped me patiently work with very young children up to mid-age adults in all areas of language acquisition. I have also received Orton Gillingham training to help those with reading challenges. Furthermore, I have a proven track record of helping students with autism and ADHD as a classroom and online teacher. My teaching experience is wide-ranging as well as my interactions with diverse populations.

I studied abroad in France which helped me to read, write and speak French, although currently at an advanced beginner level. I have also visited South Korea, Latvia, Kinshasa (Congo), to name a few. I grew up in New York surrounded by different people and cultures but now enjoy being part of a small farming community. These experiences have taught me to remain adaptable and to successfully work with different students and their families.

I believe tutoring sessions should never be boring so I come equipped with various tasks to keep things structured and fun. I look forward to working with you!
