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.

Michelle

Certified Tutor

I graduated from California State UniversityNorthridge with a degree in Theatre Arts and minors in English, Dance, and Japanese. I am currently finishing my M.F.A. in Creative Writing at California Institute of the Arts. I have worked in various writing labs and taught acting since I started pursuing higher education in 2008 as well as working in the literary department at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. I became a published poet as a young teen and have since gone on to have many other stories, poems, plays, and essays published. I greatly enjoy working with students to ignite a passion for communication and the power of language while getting to know them in the way best suited to their success. I believe that when a student embraces education, they embrace their fullest potential. When I'm not helping students learn to love English, I enjoy exploring Japanese culture, reading, testing video games, and hiking.
