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

Hello! I'm passionate about helping children grow in confidence, develop a love for learning, and reach their full potential. With over a decade of teaching experience, including five years dedicated specifically to special education, I bring a deep understanding of diverse learning styles and needs to every tutoring session.

I hold a Master's Degree in Special Education and Elementary Education, and I am currently completing my Doctorate in School Psychology. My background uniquely equips me to support students not only academically, but also emotionally and socially. I believe that every child is capable of success when given the right tools, support, and encouragement.

Whether a student is struggling to keep up, looking for enrichment, or simply needs a little extra support to thrive, I work to create personalized, engaging lessons that build skills and self-confidence. My goal is to make learning a positive, empowering experience.

Thank you for considering me as a partner in your child's educational journey. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family.


Outside of my professional work, I enjoy reading, learning new things, and spending quality time with my friends and family. These interests keep me grounded, curious, and continually growingboth personally and professionally.
