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

I graduated from Saint Leo University with a BA in Political Science and International Studies and an M.Ed in Instructional Leadership. After nearly 10 years as an academic advisor, I transitioned into the classroom, working primarily with middle school students in English/Language Arts and Social Studies. My passion has been to inspire students to take ownership of their education and discover their own academic and personal success goals. I believe that all students can be successful writers and strong readers, and become passionate about history.
