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 have been teaching for 25 years in NYC Public Schools. I have also taught Spanish as a Dual Language Teacher. I love being a teacher because I also learn from my students how to be a better teacher and engage them. I am passionate about teaching students to read, because once you can read you can learn anything. I always tell students one of my favorite quotes: "Everything is hard when you don't know how to do it and easy once you learn how."

Hobbies

I love to read, sew, cook, and garden. I love learning new things. My favorite thing in the whole world, is when a student finally learns how to do something and they light up like a lightbulb. That is priceless to me.
