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.

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Wheaton College, MA in Creative Writing and German studies. I worked in the Access student services department at Wallace Library at Wheaton.

I tutor and teach College English and Creative Writing and Graduate English and Creative Writing.

My absolute pleasure is helping students overcome their fears and develop new writing skills.
