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.

Lindsey

Certified Tutor

I graduated from Stanford University with a BA in Italian and English: Creative Writing in 2011. A Bay Area native, I stayed in the area after graduation to work in venture philanthropy. I am now pursuing an MA in Journalism at NYU. My mother is an elementary school teacher, and I get my love of learning and teaching from her! During undergrad, I worked for a private company, where I tutored English, History/Social Studies, and Social Sciences, as well as for Stanford, where I tutored Italian. As a tutor, I feel it is my job not only to help students succeed in a particular subject, but to ignite them as learners, find their intellectual passion, and become more engaged students. Though I enjoy tutoring a wide range of humanities subjects, my favorites are Italian and essay editing; I often tell friends that the nerdiest thing about me is that I truly love editing papers! Outside of school, I relax through yoga and running, I get creative in the kitchen, and I love to travel--whether exploring the city I live in, or going to far-flung corners of the globe.
