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 am a graduate of Trevecca Nazarene University. I received my Master of Arts in Teaching in Elementary Education. During my course of study I substitute taught students ranging from Kindergarten to upper Elementary, in addition, to working with YMCA's after school program. Since graduation, I worked with Metro Nashville Public Schools in Nashville Tennessee. I served students and families for several years in 2nd grade with a certification in K-6 education. I have participated in Metro Nashville Public Schools Accelerating Tutoring Program which provides additional support to those students who are performing below grade level. I am most passionate about helping students learn in the areas of Reading and Math. In my experience helping students with problem areas in Reading and Math, I create lessons and activities tailored to each student's ability level and learning modality. Having a strong foundation in Reading and Math is key to having a successful academic career that spans across all academic content. I have experience with teaching all subjects thus adhering to the social and emotional wellbeing of each student.
