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 graduate of Des Moines University. I received my Masters in Public Health with a focus in Health Promotion and Prevention and a B.A. in Geographic Information Systems from the University of Washington. Since graduation, I have worked extensively, tutoring team members on data collection processes for our Maternal and Child Health Database collection and analysis program, with a focus on teaching descriptive statistical analysis, visualizations, and statistical analysis tools such as Excel, SQL, SAS, and R; guided youths in positive learning behaviors and developing health resources; and providing an enriching learning environment during after school programs. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Writing, Research, Geography, Social Studies, Literature, and Data Science. From my experience and training, I understand students may need different styles of tutoring, which is why I am a supporter of using a variety of teaching and communication tools such as PowerPoint slides, diagrams, instant messaging, and hands-on workshops. I am a proponent of education and continued learning, believing it to be essential for an improved quality of life and cognitive enrichment. I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, yoga, hiking, exploring new restaurants, and watching soccer.
