If you choose me as your tutor, you can expect 3 things of me: Prompt, Thorough, Prepared!

I'm an enthusiastic teacher and learner. I love to help others learn. With my Master's in Elem Ed and 30+ years experience, I've learned many different ways to approach every problem. I've tutored well over 2500 students during my career. I'm a member of 7 professional organizations including Teachers Association International and International Tutoring Association.

As my Master's was focused in reading development, I primarily teach early reading. However, I am available for reading assistance at any level. Many skills are involved in learning to read including phonics, word manipulation, vocabulary and sight words.

My lessons will meet your learner where he/she is. We will work on the specific skills your child needs to work on. In order to be prepared for the first lesson, prior to beginning lessons, your learner will be given a FREE assessment during your FREE consultation. The results of the assessment will be used to guide initial lessons. Information from the results, along with information about goals and other needs from parents, teachers and any other stakeholders, will be used to write a personalized learning plan for you. Lesson plans will be written for all future lessons based on your learning plan. Lesson plans are always available for your perusal.

I look forward to hearing from you so we can begin soon!" less...
