Sadie: Vernon Hills tutor
Certified Tutor
I'm passionate about helping students build confidence, curiosity, and a genuine love for learning. I'm currently pursuing degrees in Cello Performance and Music Composition at the University of Miami, where I also teach kids through the Frost Preparatory Program and play for patients with the Ress Family Project. These experiences have helped me connect with students of all ages and learning styles.
I'm fluent in French through an immersion program, and I love sharing the language in a way that's engaging and accessible. Whether I'm helping a student master a tricky passage in a piece or understand the structure of a French sentence, I strive to make every lesson encouraging, interactive, and tailored to each student's needs.
My teaching style is patient, supportive, and creative.

Outside of academics, I’m an active performer and composer. I play cello in the Frost Symphony Orchestra and love writing original music. I’m also passionate about volunteering and working with children in creative, hands-on ways. In addition to music, I enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures, especially through language. I also used to play lacrosse and still enjoy staying active whenever I can.
