Certified learning disability specialist who provides remediation with a seasoned teaching and tutoring background in structured reading utilizing the Orton-Gillingham approach including Lindamood Bell and Wilson Language System reading programs. Offers specialized tutoring instruction including decoding/encoding, comprehension, math, and writing remediation as well as executive functioning organization. Tailors remote instruction to make overall learning effective, goal-driven, and enjoyable.

As an educator with over 20 years of experience in both private and public schools across many grade levels, I am clinically trained in several reading methods and have a diverse background in working with students who primarily have learning disabilities. While I am no longer in the classroom, through academic remediation, I work with parents, classroom teachers, therapists and diagnosticians to ensure seamless communication for all parties involved. Additionally, I assist students with and without learning challenges as they prepare for standardized testing and high school entrance exams (ERB, HSPT, ISEE, NWEA, SSAT) effectively through remote learning sessions.
