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.

Hobbies

I really enjoy my backyard and feeding the squirrels and birds. I often float in my small pool and read adventure stories. I am working on the Merlin the Early Years Series now. One of my favorite book series is The Overlander Series by Suzzanne Collins, the author of the Hunger Games Series. As a teacher, I am a life long learner so taking classes, and reading articles, and studying different pedagogy takes up a great deal of my time. I enjoy visiting my mum in Canada and Kayaking in the different bays, and lakes on Vancouver Island. I like the outdoors but only when the weather is moderate. I also love traveling and seeing new places! I especially have a passion to see places that I have studied about in history.
