My love of teaching comes from my 20+ years as a school psychologist in 5 states and 7 school districts. More is demanded of students than ever before and my individualized approach is designed to provide the added boost needed to be successful in today's academics.

My love of teaching comes from my 20+ years as a school psychologist in 5 states and 7 school districts. More is demanded of students than ever before and my individualized approach is designed to provide the added boost needed to be successful in today's academics.

English, reading, language arts and writing are areas in which I excel. Basic math, science and social studies are also areas in which I can provide assistance. I believe encouragement and positive reinforcement are tools basic to learning as well as the use of multiple modalities and sensory experiences.

After writing a master's thesis and a doctoral dissertation, I understand just how important it is to have a comprehensive understanding of language arts skills. I can assist students as they put all of the required skills together: reading for comprehension, grammar and syntax (and the difference between them), and building vocabulary through reading and dictionary use.

I know how to make every minute count, to be productive and fun, during our limited time together. I am excited to help you and your student make the most of their potential and achieve academic success. I am waiting to hear from you so we can begin our journey.

Special Needs

For over 20 years I worked as a school psychologist administering individualized assessments and designing Individualized Education Plans (IEP). Implementation of the Plan was a team effort and often involved a behavior management program. I spent many hours in a variety of classrooms tutoring students and modeling the implementation of the behavior management plan. I have worked with a wide variety of disabilities both in and out of the classroom setting.
