Hi! I’m Krislyn, a state recognized educator and trusted expert in essay writing, reading comprehension, and STAAR exam prep.

As a TIA recognized teacher, I have a strong track record of helping students achieve top scores. My students have reached up to 94 percent STAAR pass rates and some of the highest growth in the district.

I earned my degree in English Literature from the University of Washington and I’m currently pursuing a graduate degree from Johns Hopkins University, the number one school of education in the country. I have years of experience supporting diverse learners, including SPED students, emergent bilinguals, and college applicants. On my campus, I’m the go-to person for writing support and reading strategies that work.

Whether you want to improve your essays, boost your STAAR scores, or build confidence in reading, I can help you get there with clear instruction and real results.

Knowledgeable and patient

Krislyn is an amazing tutor, she is very knowledgeable as well as patient. I work very long hours however she is able to walk my son through every session and help him comprehend his work and the Wyzant website without my assistance. After every session my son is more confident and has a positive outlook on ELA. Thank you and keep doing an amazing job helping kids with their education.
