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.

Emily: Pittsburg tutor

Certified Tutor

As a high-achieving Environmental Studies student at the University at Buffalo, I've always been passionate about both learning and teaching. I have three summers of experience as a camp counselor for 3- and 4-year-olds, two years as an assistant Spanish teacher for elementary students, and I've tutored young learners across subjectsmany from non-English-speaking households. These roles taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and making education accessible to all.

In college, I continue to foster collaborative learning through study groups, believing that supporting one another is key to success. My tutoring style is encouraging, adaptable, and focused on helping students build confidence in their abilities.

Outside of academics, I'm deeply connected to the outdoors. I love snowboarding, hiking, swimming, and photographing nature. Indoors, I enjoy reading, practicing yoga, and crocheting.

Teaching has always been a natural passion, and I'm committed to helping others learn in ways that feel supportive and engaging. I strive to create a welcoming space where students can ask questions, grow, and feel proud of their progress.
