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.

Larissa

Certified Tutor

Originally from New York City, I graduated magna cum laude from the University of London (Queen Mary College) in England with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Drama. My primary concentrations, also the subjects of my dissertations, were religious themes and portrayals in Early Modern and Renaissance literature, particularly Shakespeare, as well as the political and socioeconomic impact of language and creative arts education in the 21st century. I have completed graduate level coursework at Reed College, the University of Texas at Austin, and Johns Hopkins. I have four years of classroom teaching experience alongside a decade spent one-on-one tutoring.
