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.

Louisa: Gurnee tutor

Certified Tutor

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences at Smith College, and plan to graduate next spring. My expertise spans subjects including Anatomy, Physiology, Botany, Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Genetics, Evolution, and Neuroscience. I believe in fostering a student-centered learning environment where my students feel comfortable voicing their questions and challenges. My approach emphasizes adaptability, ensuring that I meet learners at their individual levels while making complex concepts accessible. Having been tutored myself, I understand the importance of empathy in education, and I strive to create a supportive atmosphere that encourages intellectual curiosity. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading and writing science fiction, doing gymnastics and cheerleading, and practicing Spanish, having earned a New York State seal of biliteracy in the language. I am excited to share my enthusiasm for life sciences and help students achieve their academic goals.

I like: Reading, Writing, Gymnastics, Cheerleading, Yoga, Podcasting, and Playing Cello.
