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 was born and raised in Northern Italy, in the mountains, in a place where most people actually speak German. No, I don't have an accent, because my father is American and so I was raised bilingually from birth speaking German and English at home. Later of course I learnt Italian and then I studied Latin, French in high school as well. I've always been passionate about learning languages, and when I was into something, learning was easy for me and I enjoyed it.
I graduated from the University of Innsbruck (Austria) with a MA in English and a minor in Spanish. After graduating, I worked in linguistic research and then decided to get a TEFL certificate to teach English as a foreign language. I moved from Italy to Prague and spent about a year teaching EFL there to private clients, both adults and kids as well as a class in high school. That's when I realized that teaching is my calling, my thing. I moved back to Italy to teach EFL in high school and middle school for 2.5 years, before moving to Detroit to get my MA in education at the University of Michigan Flint. Since 2019, I have been working as a teacher in public schools, and I am passionate about helping students. I believe that we all are learners and teachers. all of us are readers and writers. I have the ability to share my passion for learning with others, and one of my greatest strengths is building relationships with students which is the corner stone to successful learning and teaching. I believe that there are no bad kids or bad students, it's just that we all have different paths and ways of learning, we all have a different pace. As a teacher i strive to acknowledge that and find ways to support all students, adapting to their needs and paths, meeting them where they are at. It is my job to believe in every single student and help them believe in themselves. When I am not teaching or engaging with students, I like to read, walk, hike, travel, explore, work out, watch my favorite shows. I enjoy playing and watching ice hockey, and I try to go home to visit my family in Italy once a year.
