I am a fully certified K-8 teacher with over 35 years of teaching experience, ranging from kindergarten to the university level, and specializing in teaching reading and writing at the lower elementary level. I not only scaffolded my students in achieving great success in becoming proficient readers and writers, but I also have almost 30 years of providing additional academic support as a tutor, both one-on-one and in small groups.
I have a master's degree in special education, with a focus on learning disabilities. I used learning games and fun hands-on activities to motivate and accelerate student learning and am certified in the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading, writing and spelling. I have a kind and patient personality and use age-appropriate humor to help students feel comfortable and have fun!
