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

As an experienced educator with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from Sam Houston State University, I have dedicated over ten years to teaching and tutoring English Language Arts, including ACT preparation and reading intervention for middle and high school students. My teaching philosophy centers on building strong relationships with my students, as I believe that trust and understanding are foundational to effective learning. I strive to make lessons engaging by connecting literary concepts to real-life experiences, equipping students with not only academic skills but also essential life skills such as organization and goal-setting. My passion for literature and art enriches my teaching approach, allowing me to inspire students to discover their own interests in these subjects. I am excited about the opportunity to help students achieve their goals and foster a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom.

Hobbies

I enjoy learning almost anything new! I love animals; we have two guinea pigs, two cats, a dog, and a flock of chickens. I paint with acrylics, love my small herb and tomato garden, and enjoy hiking to find waterfalls. I also love a good road trip, and plan to travel to the midwest United States this summer.
