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.

Gwen

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke. I received my B.S. in Learning Disabilities with a concentration in Psychology. I spent the first thirteen years of my educational career as an Exceptional Children's educator (Special Needs) working with all manners of mild- to moderate- disabilities at all grade levels. I made the difficult decision to transition to the General Education side of the house where I currently teach as a Middle Grades English/Language Arts and Social Studies Teacher. Additionally, I hold certifications in Middle Grades Math and Special Education: General Curriculum. My wide varying experiences over the last eighteen years across all grade levels have shown me that while English and History are my strengths, I am still comfortable helping with many levels of Math, as long as there is no Calculus involved! I am passionate about tapping into what makes each student successful for their unique learning routine and organization and growing their love of reading.
