"I am a dyslexia specialist who believes in the dyslexic advantage. I help my students discover and believe in their unique abilities for learning. As a PhD graduate from the University of Minnesota in Education, reading, and learning disabilities, I am a highly qualified teacher/tutor focused on the unique characteristics and challenges of students with dyslexia. For over 25 years I have worked with k-12 and adult learners with dyslexia and ADHD encouraging and building their individual strengths while helping them overcome obstacles to their learning.

I have full state credentials in Reading, Special Education and Language Arts and certification in the Orton Gillingham approach to teaching reading.

As an individual tutor, I enthusiastically look forward to working with my students on the journey toward appreciation of their own unique strengths and helping them build tools for using those strengths to overcome challenges to learning. I consider both students and their parents as vital contributors to the planning of a successful learning experience." less...
