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.

Marla: Westminster tutor

Certified Tutor

As an enthusiastic educator with a Master's in Education from Western Washington University, I have over 5 years of experience teaching diverse learners, from young children to adults. My passion for tutoring is driven by a deep curiosity about my students' interests and a desire to make learning an engaging journey. I specialize in Adult ESL/ELL, AP History, and English across various levels, tailoring my lessons to meet individual needs. I believe in fostering a supportive atmosphere where students feel empowered to explore new ideas and ask questions. My extensive background, including classroom teaching and online tutoring, equips me to adapt quickly and create meaningful connections with my students. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy delving into literature and history, which not only enriches my teaching but also keeps my own curiosity alive.
