I am a professional Reading Interventionist and Dyslexia educator in a local school district. I have been in education for 11 years, and hold a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I am an experienced teacher who has a passion to teach students to read. I am trained to work with dyslexia students, struggling readers, and students who need help with test strategies for STAAR. I am certified to teach students in grades Preschool through 8th grade.

I start the first session of tutoring with multiple assessments to find out what reading level your child is on, what their fluency rate is, and their comprehension. Depending on the age/grade of the student, I also will use an assessment to evaluate their spelling ability. All of the assessments I administer are used to see the whole picture of the student, and find what would be the best plan of action in regards to tutoring. I will monitor progress of the student every 4-6 sessions. Students are encouraged to set goals, and monitor their progress as well.

Dyslexia

Dyslexia

Masters Degree in Education. I have 17 years' experience in education, and 10 years as a full time reading interventionist. I currently serve dyslexic students and assess students for dyslexia in the school district I am employed by. I earned my CALT, and LDT licenses in June of 2019. I was trained through LEAD (Literacy Education and Academic Development).
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I am a Texas Educator certified to teach Early Childhood through 8th grade. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Education of Interdisciplinary Subjects, and a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have over 11 years of teaching experience in elementary education. I also have 4 years' Reading Interventionist Experience, and have been trained by Scottish Rite to assess and teach students who have dyslexia. I have experience tutoring students in small groups, and in a one-on-one setting. My methods for tutoring begin with assessing the student to find out what their needs are, what their learning style is, and then I design their instruction based on their needs. As we meet in our tutoring session, I progress monitor and reassess to make sure the student is making the expected gains.
Phonics

Phonics

I am a certified Early Childhood through 8th Grade Texas Educator. I have attended training through the Reading Recovery and Literacy Institute. I currently use numerous products teaching phonics and assessing phonics skills in my lessons with student groups. I am trained to teach dyslexic students in a systematic phonics program, and have attended training in the application of the program used to teach phonics. I am a teacher with 11 years of experience in elementary, and have been a Reading Intervention/Dyslexia teacher for 4 years. When I work with students who need phonics instruction, I begin with using an assessment to determine where the student is lacking in phonics. Through my dialogue and interaction with them, I determine their learning style. Then, I design instruction based on the student's specific needs. I monitor the student's progress throughout the ongoing sessions.
