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

As a passionate educator with a Master's in Marketing from Fitchburg State College and a Bachelor's in English/Education from William Paterson University, I have over 5 years of tutoring experience in subjects ranging from AP English Literature to Creative Writing. I am also experienced working with autistic and special education students, helping them achieve their full potential by building a solid foundation in reading and writing.

My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive environment that encourages students to explore their creativity while mastering essential writing skills. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet individual needs, helping each student build confidence and achieve academic success. Recognized for my commitment to excellence, I am dedicated to empowering students through engaging lessons and constructive feedback.

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading and exploring new writing techniques, which continuously enrich my teaching practice.

Hobbies

When I'm not working with students or clients, you can find me with my nose in a book - everything from Homer and Shakespeare to Stephen King - or scribbling random story and article ideas onto random bits of paper and/or notebooks. Originally from New Jersey, I've lived for the past 15 years in New England with my husband, autistic son, and two (former) rescue dogs.
