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

As a passionate educator with a Bachelor's in English, a Software Engineering Training, and a AWS Solutions Architect certification, I bring over five years of tutoring experience to the table. My focus lies in Grammar, Writing (including college essays, where I find immense satisfaction in helping students transform their ideas into compelling narratives), College English, SAT/ACT English, and ESL. I believe in fostering a student-centered learning environment where engagement and ownership of learning are paramount. By employing a inquiry-driven approach, I tailor my lessons to meet individual goals, guiding students through their weaknesses to build their confidence and skills. In addition to my teaching credentials, I enjoy coding and have experience in JavaScript and front-end technologies, which I incorporate into my curriculum when relevant. My ultimate goal is to inspire students to embrace their unique voices and succeed academically.

Hobbies

I really enjoy a mix of hobbies that keep my life interesting. Basketball is a big one for me; I love the rush of the game and the camaraderie with my friends on the court. Nature walks are another favorite—I find it refreshing to get outside and just soak in the sights and sounds around me. Tennis is a blast, too; it’s a great way to stay active while having fun and challenging myself. And when I need to relax, I dive into a good book. Each of these activities brings something special to my life, helping me stay balanced and happy.
