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.

Oscar: San Marcos tutor

Certified Tutor

I have a background in government and government administration. I was interested in social studies since I was young and may ability to comprehend the subject matter has made it easy to explain it to people in a way that engages and makes the information feel relevant.

I have experience helping special education and general education high school students with geography, world history, US History, Government, and Economics. Even though these are my strongest areas I also spend time teaching ELA at the middle school and elementary levels. I currently work teaching special education at the elementary level.

My approach to teaching focuses on Perennialism. I give students all of the tools and info they they need to succeed, but I also teach them to think critically so they can succeed in their future studies as well. I guide them towards really comprehending the material and its relevance instead of just memorizing it.
