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.

Maureen: Burr Ridge tutor

Certified Tutor

I am passionate about helping students because I want to see them learn and grow, just like my teachers helped me learn and grow. I have seven years of experience working with students. I received my education from Wayne State University and Buena Vista University. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Sciences & Disorders and a Master of Arts in Curriculum Instruction and Teacher Leadership. I have tutored biology, algebra, phonics, and elementary school math. My favorite subject to tutor is algebra because I am exceptionally good with number expressions and number equations. My teaching style is to help my students learn to their full potential. My tutoring style is to do a pre-test to check students' knowledge and understanding. After I explain the material, teach the student the skill needed, check for comprehension, re-teach, and check for comprehension again. After, I will make time for questions or any additional help.
