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 being an advocate and assisting students! I have experience working with students in grades kindergarten through 12th grade. Currently, I am a special education teacher, and I co-teach
high school Physical Science and Biology. I have a BS with a major in the Natural Sciences and a M.A.T. with a concentration in Middle School Science. I am available to tutor science, special education, and PRAXIS. I believe student-centered learning, with the use of all the senses, is the best way for students to gather and process information.
