Hillary Hytken Morrow has been tutoring since 2001 and taught middle school Spanish at St. John's Episcopal School before founding Fairchild in 2011. Today she leads a team of tutors who get to know each student and build a way of learning that works for them.
Love working with Hillary and Molly, they are so helpful with college guidance and tutoring.
Hillary helped our daughter create a great list of colleges to apply to, and gave input as she wrote her essay. She gave us such great advice, and was always very accessible by phone or email. Had we needed more of what her group offers (tutoring, application help, etc) - we would have used those services in a heartbeat. Hillary is professional, charismatic, smart, and we are so glad to have been referred to her by a friend.
Many people go into high school without a clue as to how to transition into college. Fairchild is the guidance that I needed to hold my hand through this arduous process. After meeting with the Fairchild team during my sophomore year, they determined that it was best that I start getting tutored. I was able to turn my grades around, and from there they helped me with SAT prep and college guidance. Without someone guiding me through high school, I would not have the GPA that I have now, the test scores, or the college scholarships. This is the kind of help I feel as though every high schooler needs. I am so thankful to not have to go through all of this alone!
If you want to have a stress free, completely hands off college application process for your child, Fairchild is the consultant for you. I never had to check on any deadlines, or even read an essay. Fairchild handled every aspect of the application process and got my daughter activated in a way I'd never seen before. We also got into more schools than we ever imagined, including my daughter's top choice.
