ABOUT

Blueberry Fig is a Vancouver-based education services business offering enthusiastic tutoring, diligent editing, conscientious design, and compassionate consulting. The way you learn is unique. No one else has your dreams and goals, your passions and challenges, your life circumstances and your experiences. Reach your goals, find joy in learning, and develop confidence in your own judgment while gaining academic skills and knowledge you can take with you into all your future projects.

Blueberry Fig is run by Lydia du Bois. I have 20 years’ experience in K-12 and post-secondary teaching, special education, academic editing, research, and student support, as well as instructional design, curriculum development, customized resource design, and student advising. I have a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin for which my research was focused on how communities think about mental health. I also hold a Master’s degree in Philosophy from Simon Fraser University in BC, Canada and a Bachelor’s degree in Classics and Philosophy from the University of Cape Town in South Africa. I am a parent who frequently bakes misshapen cookies, loves melodramatic dogs, and enjoys mixed metaphors.
