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

Hello students and parents. I am a Reading Specialist in a private school by career. I've been in education for 19 years and still going strong! I've taught in elementary as well as middle (well rounded). I graduated with an undergrad BA degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and a Masters in Reading K-12 endorsed. I've always had a love for finding easier ways to teach children and adults. Seeing many frustrated students over years made me want to become apart of the solution. My patience and knowledge of subject matter allows me to reach students/adults in a special way. I love seeing the aha moments when they get it! That is the ultimate adrenaline rush for me which is why I teach. Students get the opportunity to learn from me, however I get to create a great rapport with them and learn awesome things.
