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.

Rachel: Smithtown tutor

Certified Tutor

I have been working in education for 20 years. I have taught elementary and pre-K all the way up to high school. I have worked extensively with English Language Learners and in intervention settings (Special Ed and RtI). I have taught many different subjects including math and science, reading, test preparation, and Spanish. I now am a small business owner in the field of education.

I am a graduate of UC Davis and am a full IB (International Baccalaureate) graduate (I tested in Anthropology, Spanish, Art, English, Mathematics, and Biology and wrote my extended essay in Anthropology). I was an exchange student in Costa Rica where I learned the Spanish language and one of my favorite hobbies, salsa dancing. I am currently working on completing my Master's degree, but have my Master's equivalent in Education coursework.

I have three children of my own and have taught hundreds more! I am excited to get to know you or your child and to collaborate on a plan to meet your educational needs.
