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.

Stephen

Certified Tutor

I have been teaching school for 30 years. I have an MA in English and a BA in journalism as well as teaching certificates in English and social studies. Since 1994, I have taught history, literature, and writing. I also taught ESL for 24 years as a classroom teacher in the US and abroad. I worked in 6 different countries. Loved every minute. I retired, but still want to teach, so I have been working online for about 5 years. I frequently and successfully teach TOEFL. I can help u with all 4 sections of the exam. In addition, many of my students enjoy Engoo reading and speaking lessons and discussion questions websites on a wide variety of topics to practice and improve language skills. During our conversation, I will do error correction for grammar and word usage that we can review and discuss at the end of our lesson. I also advise on issues of fluency and pronunciation. I hope we can talk about your goals when u call. I am sure I can be helpful. Please let me know if u would like to schedule a lesson.
