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.

Penny

Certified Tutor

I graduated from Hofstra University with a BA in theater and a concentration in English. After graduation I lived in Manhattan for several years and began writing professionally. I've called Dallas home for quite a while, and have taught and tutored professionally for most of the time.

I love to work with students to improve their reading and writing abilities and to introduce them to compelling works of literature and theater pieces. It is very satisfying to watch my students get excited great works and to feel a personal connection with work that may have been created hundreds of years ago.

My favorite moments are when I work one on one with students to help them realize their potential, crack the code of a tough test, or have a breakthrough moment in understanding a tough passage.
