About this tutor
I prepare individualized lessons for each child to cater to their learning level and provide constant review while introducing new concepts. I present information in a clear, explicit manner with the difficulty level building gradually to decrease frustration. I have a master's in speech langauge pathology and am certified in the Orton Gillingham approach. This background allows me to address reading disorders using well researched techniques.
I love seeing children get it! That "aha" moment is what I work for. My heart bursts when a child realizes that they have made progress, and that books that were previously hard are now easy!

What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First I spend sometime getting to know them student to set him/her at ease. We might play a quick game or look through a few pictures of my family and hobbies. Then I complete a thorough assessment which allows me to determine what my student's needs and strengths are. After that I set goals for the student and share them with the family. I keep the family informed about the student's progress through written, monthly updates as well as conversation during our tutoring session.
