I'm Toni, a college English professor looking to help you better engage with your learning interests! As a professor, my teaching style emphasizes active learning as a central component, aiming to make my classes more centered on students discovering the material and constructing their own knowledge. In teaching and tutoring, I see myself more as a facilitator of learning who provides students the necessary tools and direction for them to uncover the concepts themselves. Soon we will engage in this process of discovery together!

I am a graduate of the Medill School of Journalism of Northwestern University with an MSJ in Broadcast Journalism, and of Binghamton University of the State University of New York with a Bachelor of Arts in English, Rhetoric and Literature. While at Binghamton I also minored in Spanish and completed a certification in Comparative Literature and Translation Studies. I tutored Spanish while in college and worked as a translator for a municipal agency in the City of New York for many years. I enjoy tutoring essay writing, English Literature and critical thinking skills, and Spanish. I enjoy working with students to help them achieve their academic goals. I love seeing a student's face when they get that 'A-ha' moment, and I especially love knowing that I contributed to that. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, journaling, cooking, singing, dancing, and spending time with family.

Gloria

I am also fluent in Italian; and have extensive advanced fluency in French and German. I picked up my language skills while working and traveling to over 65 countries. My extensive linguistics knowledge coupled with my teaching experience allows me to help students struggling with learning Spanish; or writing college essays, term papers, dissertations or articles for publication; or organization skills to improve academic performance. Because of my varied travel experience I find it easy to adjust to students experiences and learning gaps in order to show them how to utilize the knowledge they already have and build on that knowledge in order to attain greater skills.

I am a chemical engineer, with work experience in tutoring, lab research and process design. Chemical engineering is my passion, especially since it relates to so many aspects of our day-to-day life, and I am excited to help students see how exciting science and engineering can be. One of my favorite parts of teaching is helping students relate abstract science concepts to tangible physical phenomena. Partly inspired by my love of gardening and birdwatching, I have gained a technical understanding of ecological systems, particularly native plant communities.

Frequently Asked Questions
HESI builds critical thinking and problem-solving skills that apply across academics and careers. A strong foundation in HESI opens doors to advanced coursework and prepares students for standardized tests.
Many students find that success in HESI boosts their confidence in related subjects too.
Common challenges include gaps from earlier material, difficulty with specific concepts, and trouble applying what's learned to new problems. These issues compound quickly in HESI because topics build on each other.
A tutor identifies exactly where you're stuck, fills in gaps, and gives you targeted practice until the concepts click. That 1-on-1 attention makes a big difference.
Look for someone with strong HESI knowledge who can explain concepts in multiple ways until you understand. Patience and the ability to adapt to your learning style matter as much as expertise.
Varsity Tutors vets all tutors through background checks, credential review, and teaching evaluation—so you can focus on finding the right personality and teaching approach fit.
For students who are struggling, stuck, or want to excel, tutoring often pays off in better grades, stronger test scores, and reduced stress. The 1-on-1 format lets you move at your own pace and focus on what you actually need.
Many students also develop better study habits that serve them in other subjects.
Most students benefit from 1-2 sessions per week. If you're significantly behind or have a major exam coming up, more frequent sessions can help you catch up faster.
Your tutor can recommend a schedule based on your goals and timeline.
Yes—both are core parts of tutoring. Tutors help you work through challenging homework problems while teaching the underlying concepts, so you're not just getting answers but actually learning.
For exams, tutors provide targeted review, practice problems, and test-taking strategies specific to HESI.
Tutoring is typically purchased in hour packages, with rates varying by tutor experience and subject complexity. Varsity Tutors offers several package options.
You can discuss pricing during your consultation to find an option that fits your budget and goals.
Your tutor will assess where you are, discuss your goals, and start working on areas where you need the most help. Many students bring current homework or upcoming test material to focus on.
By the end of the session, you'll have a plan for moving forward and a sense of how your tutor approaches teaching HESI.
