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.

Lyra: Campton Hills tutor

Certified Tutor

I earned my BA and MFA at Southern Illinois University Carbondale in Creative Writing and Poetry, respectively. I have experience tutoring English, ESL, Writing, Essay Writing, and Poetry. I tutor most English categories. I would describe my tutoring style as adaptive. I'm used to catering to the way the student learns, and I'm usually described as patient and caring. Outside of tutoring, I love writing poetry, reading, listening to music, and driving to obscure cafes. I'd love to meet you!
