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.

Dana

Certified Tutor

I have over 30 years' experience in teaching, middle school through university, in multiple fields -- mainly French, Spanish, Latin, technology, and coaching, but including photography, sailing and coastal navigation, and athletic injuries and rehabilitation. Teaching is not limited to school-settings or to school-subjects alone. My signature traits are enthusiasm, attention to detail, a high level of organization, listening, patience, clear and concise communication, exact writing, and interest in many disciplines informed by a wide variety of reading and experience.

My undergraduate degrees are from Bowdoin College, Brunswick, ME (Foreign Languages) and Capital University, Columbus, OH (Athletic Training). I hold a Master's degree in French Literature from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
