I have many years of experience as an elementary education teacher. I enjoy working with children and have a great deal of patience when it comes to helping a struggling learner. I have worked as a basic skills teacher in reading and math, creating my own lessons and differentiating for each student, attending to their unique learning style. I like to make learning fun by incorporating games in my lessons and working with each student to find out what motivates them to learn. I believe in building a teacher/student relationship with each of my students so they will trust me and want to do their best for me.

I am a certified early childhood, elementary, and special education teacher. I have been teaching reading for 30 years. I have been trained in many reading programs including Fountas & Pinnell and Wilson. I constantly keep myself updated with the latest research on effective reading strategies.

My most recent teaching position is as a reading interventionist.

Approved Subjects

Dyslexia

Dyslexia

I have tutored students with dyslexia in reading and writing for 20 years. I am a certified special education teacher and use the Orton-Gillingham method and strategies with great success. I have much experience individualizing an education plan for each student I tutor and have tutored students from 6 to 21 with dyslexia.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I am a certified teacher with many years of experience teaching math at the elementary level as a classroom teacher, basic skills teacher and special education teacher. I am trained in Everyday Math and Touch Math and have used various multi-sensory strategies to help struggling students.
Grammar

Grammar

I was taught grammar from Grades K-12 in a very strict private school. It became engrained in me. When I started teaching, I always felt that grammar was an integral part of language arts, and always included grammar lessons in my classroom.
Phonics

Phonics

I have taught phonics for 30 years. Early in my career, I taught phonics as an early childhood educator. Later in my career, I taught phonics to older students with dyslexia. I use a multi sensory approach in my teaching.
Reading

Reading

I am an experienced reading intervention teacher. I determine a student’s area of difficulty using running records and use many learned strategies to help my students become successful readers.
Spelling

Spelling

I still believe learning to spell is an important skill, even with spell check these days. It helps students become successful readers and writers. I use a word study approach by teaching word patterns and make spelling fun by playing different games.
