Dylin Coons

Tutor

Bio:
Hello Everyone, my name is Dylin and I am from the northwest suburbs. I am excited to be a part of the iAchieve team! It is a great passion of mine to help students reach their full academic potential.

Originally, I began my undergraduate career as an education major with a minor in elementary math from Elmhurst College. I took courses on educational psychology, and math for elementary students which has prepared me to work with various children at a variety of levels. During undergrad, I found that I enjoyed working one-on-one with students and fell in love with school psychology. I finished undergrad in 2017 with a Bachelor’s in Psychology and pursued graduate school.

In 2018, I began graduate school at Eastern Illinois University to study school psychology. My experience in that program has strengthened my knowledge of academic and mental health interventions, instructional support, and school-wide practices to support learning.

I have previous experience working in an academic intervention clinic where I taught a reading intervention to a student for 10 weeks. Additionally, I have provided reading and math interventions for students throughout the school year.

When I am not working or studying, I like watching baseball and college basketball. I enjoy exploring the city of Chicago and visiting state parks. I also spend a lot of time reading, shopping, running, biking, and playing with my dog Bryzzo!
