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.

Barbara

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Brooklyn College. I received my Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in Education. I also continued my studies and received 30 credits above my Masters. I taught in the New York City School System for 26 years. I taught Kindergarten and Math. I was also the Math Coach and Staff Developer at my school. While I have tutored all Elementary School subjects, I would have to say that tutoring Reading is my passion. Reading is important in everything we do. Reading is a vital skill in finding a good job, developing the mind, and discovering new things. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, listening to music, and baseball.
