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.

Tara: Smithtown tutor

Certified Tutor

I'm a recent graduate of Stuyvesant High School and am currently in the Macaulay Honors Program at Hunter College.
During high school, I spent my senior year working as a teacher assistant at a prep center with students from grades 3-11 but specialized in preparing seventh grade students for the SHSAT. I also spent my junior and senior year working at Stuyvesant's Writing Center and edited everything from college essays to history research papers. Since then, I have been privately tutoring seventh and eighth grade students for the SHSAT and helping seniors write their college essays.
In these last few years, I've learned that I not only love writing, but I love helping others write and teaching students how to do their very best!
