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

I am a lifelong learner. I hold four degrees in education, including a Doctor of Education degree in Educational Leadership. As an educator for over 25 years, there are some things I can say for certain that have kept me in the field of education for so long. First, I have a passion sharing my knowledge. Second, I care about the students I work with, both academically and personally. I pride myself on the relationships I have built with thousands of learners, ranging in age from 3-80! Lastly, I am able to relate to what makes the material that I am teaching challenging. I am also adept at being able to explain a concept in multiple ways, based on an individual's learning style. When tutoring one-on-one or within a small group, i enjoy tutoring as it allows me to individualize and personalize my instruction. Outside of tutoring and some part-time work for an online university, I spend much of my time spending time with my family, conducting research, writing and publishing research articles, and relaxing by the pool, year round here in sunny Florida!
