Soaring With Tammy

**Experienced and Effective Orton-Gillingham Tutor**I enjoy helping students reach their full potential and love seeing their genuine happiness when they accomplish something they believed to be “too challenging.” I have worked as a general education teacher, SPED teacher, and literacy tutor for the past 10+ years. I am trained in Orton-Gillingham and on the pathway to getting certified through Orton-Gillingham Academy (OGA).

I believe no two children are the same and have seen the benefits of an individualized structured literacy approach. Therefore, every tutoring session is not only interactive and multi-sensory but is also customized to your child’s specific needs. I believe that a trusting relationship is crucial in a child's academic and social-emotional growth, which is why I provide a structured yet warm and nurturing environment where your child will feel safe to take risks and make mistakes. Through making mistakes and practice, my students have gained confidence in their abilities and most importantly started to believe in themselves!
