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.

Parisse: El Cajon tutor

Certified Tutor

I completed both my B.A. at University of California, Berkeley and my M.A. at California State University, East Bay in the subject of Geography with a focus on Human Geography and Spatial Technology. I have tutored students through the AVID program as an AVID tutor for grades 9-12, one-on-one and in groups. While I was an AVID tutor, I tutored students in English, U.S. History, World History, and Geography. I also have experience working with young children in grades 2-3 for reading comprehension improvement. I worked at Via Center School with special education students ranging from ages 5-22 years of age in elementary subjects and social skills. I have had the opportunity to work with students ranging from pre-k through high school while I worked at the Hall of Health Children's Museum in Berkeley, California.

My duties included leading presentations on the human body and giving guided tours of the museum. I tutor a great deal of subjects, and I would say that my core subjects are English, Literature, Public Speaking, and History. I enjoy connecting with young minds and helping them comprehend the materials that we are both studying. The learning process never ceases, and I cannot think of a more rewarding way to learn then through teaching others. I have a goal to help students with their studies, so that they can make more informed decisions in their life and lead more successful lives.

In my free-time, I enjoy writing poetry, flying kites, practicing Tai Chi and yoga, reading, cooking, Writing short stories, singing and drawing.
