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

Greetings Students and Families my name is Mrs. S. Preston and I am a proud school educator of 22 years in sunny Central Florida. I am a graduate of Hillsborough Community College and the University of South Florida both located in Tampa, Florida.
Teaching is my love and nothing brings me more joy than educating, guiding, and motivating students to be successful learners. I believe in showing students that I to, am a learner. I set expectations for myself too, and I practice. Afterall, practice leads to PROGRESS. My philosophy is evident in my I Do, We Do, and You Do lessons and/or tutoring sessions. My students will have tasks first modeled, followed by opportunities for them to explore with along with me, and demonstrate their learning on their own.
Honored to be a part of a child's educational journey with a strong belief in helping create lifelong learners. Teaching is my SUPERPOWER!
