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

For 11 years I have tutored math and science, full-time, with high school and college students. For many years I taught math (pre-algebra to pre-calculus) and science (biology, chemistry, and physics) in the classroom. I have taught both basic and honors courses.

I have a Master's degree in psychology and 3 additional years of college credit in education-related courses. This breadth of knowledge makes me a better tutor. Students appreciate my ability to describe things in a variety of ways to match their needs. They often thank me for my patience. I love my work. One of my goals is to help each student understand completely so that they can love to learn, too.

I also love knitting and crocheting. In addition to teaching the basics, I encourage needelworkers to develop their creativity so that they can design their own projects.
