Marissa Pareles

I am an NYU doctoral student in English and American Literature with 5+ years of tutoring experience. I have a BA in Comparative Literature from Yale, and received a perfect score on my own SATs.

I teach with warmth and a sense of joy, tailoring lessons and syllabi to each student's needs. I use all tools at my disposal, emphasizing reading and critical thinking, so that tutoring isn't just a quick fix but actually improves students' readiness for future challenges. 

My students see an average improvement of over 230 points on the SAT. Recent students have been accepted to Brown, Columbia, Sarah Lawrence, Hampshire, Occidental, and NYU Tisch.

Please contact me at pareles@nyu.edu if you need an expert and effective tutor for yourself or your child.

Still have questions? Please get in touch. I look forward to teaching you!
