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 am passionate about teaching reading, and I love my work as a reading specialist/interventionist.

I taught for 41 years, and I also worked as the school principal for 16 years. I have taught all of the grades from preschool through grade eight. I also provided literacy themed professional development with teachers with Concordia University. I am currently teaching literacy classes at Depaul University.

I believe learning about a child, and their skills, is key to creating targeted, differentiated instruction for him/her. I also believe it is important to help readers find text with which they can connect and enjoy.

Reading opens doors - it is exciting to see those doors open for learners.
