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 graduate of the University of Southern Indiana where I received a Bachelor of Science degree focusing on Geology and Creative Writing. I also hold a graduate degree from East Carolina University, earning a Master of Arts in Teaching degree, specializing in Secondary Science Education and Geology. Since graduating from ECU, I have worked as an Earth Science Educator, teaching Earth Science and AP Environmental Science. I also, of course, love educating and tutor college-level students in geology or other earth science realms. As an educator, what I enjoy most is helping students navigate the scientific realm, and showing how they experience science in their day-to-life. Helping students draft or edit a paper or learning good study habits is another aspect of education that I hold dear as I spent two years of my undergraduate as a writing tutor. I believe that all students can find enjoyment in learning and I hope to share and generate that love of questing for knowledge in each student that I meet.
