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.

My name is Shelby LaBonte-Torres, and I am a passionate educator with a Bachelor's degree in History and English and Master's degrees in History and Library Science. With over 10 years of experience in tutoring and teaching at various levels, I specialize in AP Human Geography, AP US History, US History, World History, World Geography, and English for middle and high school students. My teaching philosophy centers on creating engaging, student-centered learning experiences that connect historical concepts to contemporary life. I believe that history and literature are not just subjects, but vital tools for understanding the world. I strive to make these subjects accessible and enjoyable, helping students discover their strengths while overcoming challenges. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring diverse cultures through travel and literature, which informs my teaching and enriches my students' learning experiences.
