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.

Elspeth

Certified Tutor

I graduated from Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts with a Bachelors Degree in Sociology and Education.

I have been a teacher for over 11 years, the last 7 of which have been teaching Kindergarten and First Grade in the Wake County Public School System. In this role, I have worked with students from very diverse backgrounds and with a wide array of academic needs. This has prepared me to be able to teach using a wide range of strategies and resources to ensure that I am able to reach all of my students and instill in them a love of learning.

In my free time I enjoy doing yoga and lifting weights. I also enjoy spending as much time as possible outside doing everything from going on walks to kayaking.
