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.

Heather: Essex County tutor

Certified Tutor

I graduated from the University of Puget Sound with honors in English, Writing and Rhetoric. There, I received formal training in tutoring writing. I also enjoyed tutoring geometry and algebra in high school.
Since college, I've published nationally distributed essays and comics, and wrote a young adult steampunk novel. I love tutoring math because it didn't come easy to me, so I'm proud to share what I've learned, and I know you can learn it too. I love working with neurodiverse students, and practicing my ASL with Deaf and hard of hearing learners.

Hobbies

I play and teach the cello. I write speculative fiction, love to read, and love to workshop other people's writing. I play every kind of music I can, and am currently playing with a tango band. Growing up in Alaska taught me how to connect to the world around me, and see all the different layers of life and detail around. I live in Chicago now, and see the same layers of life and interconnection in this beautiful city.
