Karen Love
Director of Education
As Director of Education, Dr Love oversees the integrity of our educational program by meeting with families for conferences, and supporting our tutors through training and development. Karen holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood/Elementary Education, a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with emphasis on Reading Instruction and a Doctorate Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on Assessment and Family Engagement.
Karen taught in the Chicago Public Schools and retired after 20 years. After a few months she decided that she missed the excitement of being around children and their families and found her way to our Sylvan family where she brings a wealth of knowledge, expertise and and deep commitment to seeing students achieve their individual goals.
Outside of Sylvan, Karen enjoys making crafts, watching tv and spending time with her 2 feline children – Callie and SweetPea.
