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.

James

Certified Tutor

Im a dedicated teacher with over 12 years experience. I have a Bachelors and Masters degree in Elementary Education. Im almost finished with my ED.S in Psychometry, which is a form of testing. I think students would say my personality is what draws them in. I try to include past and current events in my reading lessons to make them interesting. I sing, dance, and make jokes to keep things interesting. Some of my hobbies include the gym and bowling. Im trying to learn how to curve the bowling ball for strikes, but it is a work in progress. Im originally from Los Angeles, California, but I moved to Mississippi when I was 12. I can cook, a bit of a neat freak, and I value naps.
