Wendy Schuster

Regional Director

As Regional Director, Wendy oversees our centers in Charlotte – Mooresville, Huntersville, Ballantyne, Matthews, & Union County. A former classroom teacher and administrator, Wendy chose a career in the tutoring business because she wanted a more personal experience with the children. She obtained her Master’s in Ed. Leadership at University of GA. When Wendy isn’t at Sylvan, you’ll find her walking her dog at the park or watching UGA football.

Julia Bourdon

Tutor

I have been tutoring for a little over two years. I have tutored mostly upper level math, but I am a nerd, so I love all subjects. In my spare time, I like to read, write, and play with my pet parrot.
