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.

Julie

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Buena Vista University with a degree in Bachelor of Arts in Education and Iowa State University receiving a Special Education Endorsement. While attending school, I tutored students in grades 7-12 with an emphasis on study skills, organizational skills, and test-taking skills. Soon after, I taught special education where I empowered students to become independent learners while using creative approaches to accommodate varied learning styles while tracking student progress and following timelines for re-evaluations. I developed IEP and 504 plans with collaboration from teachers, parents, and each student. While I taught a broad range of subjects, I'm most passionate about reading and writing improvement using the Kansas University Learning Strategies. The life skills of organization, studying, and test-taking are instilled in my students as it incorporated into my lessons helping students achieve their goals along with the right attitude, tools, and skills within their reach.
