I have a Masters of Education in Special Ed and an Educational Specialist Degree in Teacher Leadership. I have taught Prek-9th Grade.

As a GA Certified Reading Specialist, I also have been trained in the Orton-Gillingham approach through The Institute for Multi-Sensory Education. I have enjoyed teaching and tutoring for the last 13 years using this approach with excellent results.
I have especially enjoyed teaching reading, writing and grammar at the 6th grade and 9th grade level.
I tutor most students at my home office, which provides undistracted focus.
I want satisfied clients and encourage feedback. My hours are flexible, but note that there is a two hour cancellation policy. I will offer makeup classes when possible.
I look forward to hearing from you and helping your student meet his or her learning goals.
