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.

Ross: Orange County tutor

Certified Tutor

I am an experienced educator entering my eleventh year in the field of education. I hold a deep commitment to student growth, academic confidence, and long-term success. Over the past decade, I have taught and supported learners across upper elementary and middle school, with a focus on English Language Arts and Mathematics. In addition to classroom teaching, I also serve as a middle school coach in football, basketball, and track, where I emphasize discipline, teamwork, and resilience; values I also bring into my tutoring.

While I tutor a range of subjects, I am particularly passionate about helping students strengthen their mathematics problem-solving skills. I take pride in creating supportive, engaging learning environments where students feel empowered to ask questions, think critically, and take ownership of their progress.

Outside of education, I'm an avid reader and beginner skateboarder, always looking for new stories to explore and fresh pavement to cruise. I believe that learning is a lifelong journey, and I strive to help each of my students discover the joy in that process.
