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.

Alicia: Lisle tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a gifted tutor with 28 years experience. My view of the tutor's role is equipping students for current success as well as putting them on a trajectory to be successful life-long learners.

Each student learns best in different ways. I love discovering what helps each individual and tailoring my instruction accordingly. Seeing exactly where a student is making an error is like gold to me because then I know precisely what I need to re-teach or explain in another way.

In addition to tutoring, I am a certified teacher with classroom teaching experience in high school math, personal finance, and elementary music and computer classes. I have managed tutors as a Director of Education for Sylvan Learning Center. In that role I curated curriculum in academic skill development, study skills, and test preparation which I individualized according to each student's needs. And finally, I have developed test preparation curriculum as well as computer and music class curriculum.

I look forward to helping you or your family achieve success!
