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

Growing up, my parents always instilled in me and my sister the importance of education, working hard, and being independent. I like to think that I am carrying that forward with my own children and those around me.

I have previously tutored children in middle and high school, supported a 4th/5th grade elementary school class, and work with my own children on elementary education. I also educate people on financial literacy, leveraging my personal and professional experience and knowledge (over 20 years working in financial services). For adult and ESL learners, I have years of experience in writing and creating and leading presentations to various audiences..

When I tutor, I like to create real life scenarios as much as possible, and knowing each student has a different approach to learning, try to find the right way to engage and connect with each student. I received my undergraduate degree in marketing and management from Tulane University and my law degree in New York, focusing on securities law.

I would love to help you achieve your goals!
