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.

Certified Tutor

I am a recent graduate of UCLA where I received a BA in History. During my time at UCLA I worked as a student journalist for our college newspaper, as well as successfully completed a history honors thesis. In high school, I received a 34 composite on my ACT and scored in the top 1% in the English, Reading, and Science sections. I received 4s and 5s on my AP Lit, U.S History, World History, and Government exams as well as an A in College/Honors English and As on all of my New York State Regents Exams.
My strengths are essay writing (either for school or for college applications), reading comprehension, and grammar. I have experience working with students of all ages. I am excellent at creating game plans + study guides with students and getting them excited about tutoring! My best subjects are social studies/history and english/reading/writing. I am comfortable tutoring students of all ages and of all skill levels in these subjects and I can do anything from homework to essays to test prep.
In my spare time, I love to read thriller novels, watch Netflix (especially Community and Stranger Things!) and hike.
