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

Students learn differently, process differently, and give it back to us differently. As educators we must learn to differentiate, accept learning differences, and assess differently. I have many years of life experience teaching kids and helping them to reach their potential. I love to find new ways to teach and new strategies for learning and look forward to working with you.

What is your teaching philosophy?

With reading comprehension, I like to break things down. First, I start with vocabulary so the student will have an understanding of the words before they get to them. Next, I like the students to visualize the scene, or draw a picture. Finally, I like to have the students retell what they are reading. I like to take reading passages in small chunks as well so they are not overwhelmed.
