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 received my bachelor's of science in journalism from Ohio University (go bobcats!) Since graduation, I have worked as a middle and high school science teacher in Mississippi and Colorado. I tutor a few different subjects, but I am really passionate about helping students improve their standardized test scores as they prepare for college. Improving SAT and ACT scores can really open doors to admission and scholarships at great schools!

Currently I am a graduate student studying social work at the University of Denver. In my spare time, I can be found curled up on the couch with a good book, skiing, hiking, or cheering on my favorite sports teams with friends.
