...on an individual level, I was able to unlock a lot of creativity. If students write about what they know, rather than what they think someone would like to hear, they often become much more authentic writers. I love to watch football with my roommate and friends (Go Texans!) and have started getting into basketball since I moved to Chicago. I have a beautiful cat named Daisy and I love to swim and be outside!

Receive personally tailored ISEE lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with the best tutor for your particular needs while offering flexible scheduling to fit your busy life.Admission to competitive schools can offer your student an edge on other students for their continued education. Admission often is influenced by the ISEE, or the Independent School Entrance Exam. Developed by the Educational Records Bureau, the ISEE has three levels of testing. The levels are Lower Level, Middle Level, and Upper Level. The level of exam your child takes is determined by their current grade level. The ISEE is a timed test that takes nearly three hours to complete. Schools receive a scaled score between 760 and 940 in addition to a percentile score that compares your student to others in the same grade. Considering this comparative way of deciding who gets admitted, it makes sense to give your student the best advantage possible by utilizing a professional tutor. Varsity Tutors' skilled educational directors are happy to help students in Oak Lawn connect with an experienced ISEE tutor.
