Is the SAT or the ACT Best for your Student?

Hey! I’m Ellyn…

I’ve been tutoring and mentoring in STEM-related fields for 10+ years, but it was only after I stepped away from my science career to start my first business that I realized how fulfilling I find teaching.

You see, I’ve been a high-achieving student my whole life. But my work in burnout and stress management (more on that here) led me to realize how crucial it is to not only give students academic support, but also to give them stress management and anxiety support in the process. Because I believe the stress and burnout-driving mindsets, habits, and behaviors that create habits of overwork, stress, and workaholism as adults start NOW—when we’re teens!

So, here at Ellyn, The Tutor, I’m on a mission to help students achieve more with less stress and burnout so that they can be better, more successful, more balanced professionals in life! My tutoring and mentorship services give the best of the best when it comes to academic support in STEM and test prep services that are suited to your needs, your schedule, and your students.

What I’m about

Helping Students Achieve Their Goals with Less Stress and More Confidence, so that they can Enjoy Being a Teenager AND be Better, More Balanced Professionals in their Future Careers!

Let’s Work

together!
