Bio

Struggling readers are not struggling learners. They simply need the right instruction, the right tools, and someone who believes in them.

I’m a certified PreK–12 Reading Specialist with over 20 years of experience helping students of all ages develop the skills, confidence, and independence they need to become successful lifelong readers and writers. I work with students from PK through adults in reading, writing, ESOL, and study strategies.

Struggling readers are not struggling learners. They simply need the right instruction, the right tools, and someone who believes in them.

I’m a certified PreK–12 Reading Specialist with over 20 years of experience helping students of all ages develop the skills, confidence, and independence they need to become successful lifelong readers and writers. I work with students from PK through adults in reading, writing, ESOL, and study strategies.

My specialty is working with students with dyslexia, ADHD, and other literacy challenges. As an Orton-Gillingham trained instructor, I use research-based, multisensory instructional approaches to make learning explicit, engaging, and meaningful. By incorporating visual, auditory, and hands-on learning experiences, I help students make connections, strengthen foundational skills, and experience success.

Whether your child is just beginning to develop foundational reading skills or needs support with more advanced literacy or ESOL, I provide individualized instruction in:

~ Phonics & Decoding: Building the foundational skills needed to read unfamiliar words with confidence.
~ Spelling & Written Expression: Strengthening encoding, spelling patterns, sentence structure, and writing skills.
~ Fluency & Comprehension: Helping students move beyond decoding to read smoothly, understand what they read, and engage with text.
~ Dyslexia & ADHD Support: Using structured, multisensory lessons that support attention, memory, and skill development.
~ Confidence & Motivation: Celebrating progress, building resilience, and helping students recognize their own potential.

Every student is different. I begin by getting to know your child as a learner, identifying strengths and areas for growth through preliminary assessments, and developing individual learning plans.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

I have many years of experience working with students with ADHD. I ensure that there are visual supports for instruction, whether in-person or online, and I respond to each student's individual needs. During my instruction, I use a Pomodoro timer (as needed) to support focus during instruction.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

As an intervention teacher, I provide targeted instruction to students with various learning profiles, including those on the autism spectrum. I provide clear, structured lessons with visual supports to create a predictable schedule for the student. This also breaks up the task into parts, allowing for success in smaller increments. I give ample notice when transitioning activities during our work together.
Dyslexia

Dyslexia

I am trained in Orton-Gillingham methodology (including SPIRE and Wilson/Fundations) and have provided reading and writing intervention to students for over 20 years. I am an experienced tutor, having tutored students of various needs and abilities K-8. As an interventionist, I work with many students who have dyslexia and have seen tremendous growth using the multisensory approach.
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I have over 20 years of teaching experience in both elementary and middle schools. I have been a classroom teacher and reading interventionist in both public and private schools. I have also taught graduate classes in literacy to teachers enrolled in a graduate program. Whether in the classroom or during one-on-one instruction, I provide targeted instruction to students of these age groups.

I am an experienced ESOL teacher, having taught both adults and younger students.
