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 am a current certified 7th grade ELA teacher at a New York City Public school. My career started in 2013; however, I have been a tutor since 2010.
Reading comprehension and writing are some of the specific skills I focus on with my students in my classroom.
Test preparation is another area that I am well versed in. Assisting students and time to improve their skills are all important to me as a educator.

What is your teaching philosophy?

Every child needs a champion; someone who will not give up on them even when they feel they have lost all hope. I believe there is an opportunity for students to become better in all aspects of their learning. Students need to develop a growth mindset and know they are able to grow in all areas.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

During my first session with a student, I would spend time getting to know their learning style. We will review what some of my methods are and then get to work.
