Hi! I’m Tracy, a certified elementary teacher with over 20 years of experience teaching first grade and a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education.
I specialize in early literacy, phonics, decoding, fluency, and reading intervention, using Science of Reading aligned instruction grounded in current research. I am LETRS trained and certified through the Alabama Reading Initiative (ARI), which means my teaching is intentional, explicit, and designed to build strong, lasting reading skills.
I work closely with struggling readers, students who need targeted phonics support, and children with dyslexia-related concerns. Because I teach first grade every day, I know exactly what skills students need to master and how to break them down in ways that finally make reading click.
My goal is to build both skills and confidence, so students feel successful and parents see real progress.
