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 the University of Houston - Downtown with a Bachelor of Science in Sociology. I have 6 years of experience working as a Classroom Teacher, some of which include, educating my own children from home. I am certified to teach every subject from 4th-8th grade, as well as English as a Second Language. Teaching Math is my field of expertise. I enjoy helping young learners grasp math because Math never came easy to me as a child. I try to teach this complex subject in a simple way. I love when students have "Aha!" moments. I believe every student can learn to be proficient at math when they are equipped with the right tools and empowered with a "can do" attitude.

Hobbies

I enjoy spending time with my husband Brandon, our 11-year-old son Cameron, our 5 cats, and our dog, Mr. Peabody. In my spare time, I like to read books, work out, sing, dance, and learn new languages. I also enjoy spending time with family and friends. I always enjoy learning and creating new healthy and delicious recipes for my family. Health and wellness is very important to me. Spirituality is also an essential part of my life. Encouraging those who are discouraged brings me great joy.
