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.

Rivers: Kirkland tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of New York University, where I received my Bachelor of Music in Voice with a focus on opera. I'm now a graduate student at Indiana University pursuing a Master of Music degree, also in Voice/Opera. During my studies, I've worked consistently as a voice teacher, maintaining a private studio as well as teaching through both NYU and IU as adjunct faculty and Associate Instructor, respectively. This one-on-one environment is where I discovered my love of helping people realize their educational goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Music and English. In my experience helping students prepare for juries and performances, I've seen firsthand the joy that can come from learning in a positive and supportive environment. My goals as a teacher and tutor are to foster lifelong learning and creative problem-solving in every student that I work with.
