Welcome! As an Orton-Gillingham certified Reading Specialist (via the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education), Wilson Reading System trained educator, and two-time Teacher of the Year, I bring over 20 years of experience helping K–12 students build deep confidence and master reading. With a Master’s in Literacy and credentials in Special and Elementary Education, I create a warm, low-stress space where every learner can thrive.

I specialize in supporting students with dyslexia, ADHD, or general reading gaps. Using Science of Reading principles and hands-on, multi-sensory techniques, I break down phonics, decoding, and comprehension into clear, step-by-step victories. As a fully bilingual educator, I also love guiding English Language Learners and Spanish immersion students toward dual-language success!

Every milestone deserves to be celebrated. Together, we will set clear goals, track real growth, and unlock your child's full potential. I can't wait to partner with your family!

Inspiring tutor

I was inspired by Jessica's story of learning Spanish as an adult. My daughter enjoyed the tutoring session with her. She said that she spoke more Spanish in one hour with Jessica than in the entire month of December in class.
