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 have a passion to help others in this world, especially kids.
-I am a graduate of University of Iowa. I received my Bachelor of Science in Elementary and special education. I was a teacher in public schools for 7 years, focusing on special education, reading, math and writing for kindergarten to 8th grade. My responsibilities included co-teaching general education classes, and modifying assignments and assessments for students in accordance with their IEPs and 504 plans.
-I'm also a mom of 4 kids! They currently ranging in ages from 3 to 14 years old so I have experience with all different types of interest levels.
-I pride myself in thinking outside the box and approaching tutoring subjects from different angles in order to make sure that a student has the best chance of really mastering concepts. I am incredibly upbeat and positive. I excel in organization and finding what works for everyone. I greatly enjoy finding a way to bring education to the students in a way that they will really enjoy and understand it. Especially by relating it to things in their lives that they are interested in.
