About Andrea


Bio

I am a reading specialist who focuses on intensive reading and writing intervention with students in Kindergarten, first grade and second grade. I am a former first and second grade classroom teacher as well. In addition, I hold a Special Education degree.

I enjoy watching my students make progress as they learn the reading process. I want my students to feel proud of themselves and feel free to take risks so that they can become independent readers, writers and mathematicians.

Good start

My son seemed to enjoy his lesson, and did not realize that a whole hour had passed. We look forward to working with Andrea again and making progress on his reading.

Great start

Andrea is patient and a nice person. Worked very well with my son who is struggling with reading. Plan on using her for the school year. We made a good choice.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Andrea's high level of expertise, along with her warmth and patience are helping to re-establish my son's confidence and interest in reading, for which I will be forever grateful!

Great tutor!

Andrea worked with our 1st grader on her reading skills. She was patient and gifted and made our daughter feel proud of the work they were able to do in the allotted time. We look forward to using her on a regular basis.
