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.

Simon: New Rochelle tutor

Certified Tutor

I specialize in Medical English, ESL/EFL, academic writing, and cross-cultural communication, especially for students and professionals working internationally. I'm a medically trained professional (MD-PhD) with experience spanning clinical medicine, executive coaching, international business strategy, and bilingual language immersion education. I've worked with students from diverse backgrounds, helping them develop language skills, boost academic performance, and achieve personal and professional goals. My work has ranged from elementary and secondary education to executive and university-level instruction.

I have published articles on bilingual education and in medicine. This academic background, combined with hands-on teaching experience, allows me to bridge theory and practice in a way that connects with students.

What motivates me is seeing students grow in confidence and independence. I tailor each session to the learner's goals, adapting my style to support their strengths and address specific challenges. My tutoring approach is structured, supportive, and collaborativedesigned to make complex material accessible and relevant.
