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 passionate about helping students because I want them to have confidence in their strengths. My experience working with students began as a substitute teacher for middle and high school, which led me to pursue certification for those age groups. I graduated from Tarleton State University at the Midlothian location with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and I am working toward a Master's in Counseling with a specialization in Career Counseling. I tutor subjects such as Psychology, ESL/ELL, Spanish (multiple levels), and TExES exams. My favorite subjects to tutor are Academic Coaching for students working on positive academic habits, ESL/ELL, as I enjoy helping first-generation college students understand language and the diverse experiences in the U.S., and TExES, as I want to assist future teachers in understanding the expectations of teaching. My teaching philosophy focuses on connecting lessons to real-life scenarios, helping students relate to the material. My tutoring style involves identifying areas of difficulty and offering three different study tips tailored to each topic, building students' confidence and skills step by step.

Hobbies

I love listening to audiobooks, which allow me to immerse myself in different worlds and ideas. Cooking and baking are another passion of mine, and I find joy in experimenting with new recipes. I'm also a beginner crocheter, learning the ropes and creating simple, fun projects. Additionally, I enjoy solving puzzles and playing strategic games, phone games, Nintendo switch, and occasionally Xbox! I also enjoy cooking and baking pastries especially! I am still a beginner at crocheting, but I have made a pair of socks and a scarf!
