About
I'm Hilary, a certified teacher in New York State in Elementary and Special Education. I've been tutoring now for several years, and I love helping children to improve their skills.
One of my specialties is working with children who are having difficulty learning to read. I use the Wilson Reading System, and have had great success in raising the reading levels of students I've used it with. Some of these children have been identified as having dyslexia, but after working in the
Wilson program are now reading on grade level.
I have had 21 years' experience at teaching individuals with Down Syndrome and other conditions to increase their ability to perform daily tasks. I also have developed my expertise in changing challenging behaviors by utilizing behavior contracts, a form of positive reinforcement.
I love helping children to become the best that they can be.
