Lexly Tutoring

First I work to determine the goals for tutoring. Through conversation with the parent or adult student, I assess the need for remediation, grade-level instruction, and executive functioning strategies.  I like to see any standardized testing and reports from educational evaluations so that I can better understand the student's level of current performance, deficit areas, and strengths.  It's also critical (especially for reluctant or frustrated students) to get a good sense of the student's interests and personal goals. 

From this information I can determine the curriculum and instructional approach needed and begin to gather resources and construct an individualized lesson plan. 

I have been certified to teach English, Communications, Theatre, and Language Arts in the state of Ohio since 1995. 

I am a Certified Fellow-in-Training and Clinical Supervisor of the Academy of Orton Gillingham

I have 29 years of experience working with students who learn differently.  I have been a tutor, teacher, supervisor, and curriculum designer in a school for children with learning differences.

English/Language Arts tutorial is $45/hour to $60/hour, depending on the amount of preparation required for each session.

Oton-Gillingham tutorial ranges from $50/hour to $75/hour depending on the length of the session and the number of sessions per week.  Each OG lesson is diagnostic and prescriptive, meaning that it must be created for each student individually.
