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.

Phoebe

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Bates College in Maine. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies with a minor in Educational Studies.
In 2015 I received my California Teaching Credential and have been teaching elementary school since.
In the spring of 2018 I received my Masters of Arts in Teaching from Mills College.
Previously, I have worked as a AmeriCorps volunteer in a middle school in East Oakland. During that time I worked extensively with a group of 10 sixth graders to raise their reading, math, and organizational skills.
Currently I teach fourth grade, which I love!
In my experience working with students, I have always enjoyed working on reading skills and creating fun ways to learn math. I am a huge believer in the importance of education and fully believe in the success of all students. In my spare time, I enjoy baking various desserts, quilting, and kayaking around the Bay Area. I, also, love to read and am always happy to curl up with a good book.
