"Hi, I'm Ms. Allison! I received my degree from Indiana State University, where I majored in both Special Education and Elementary Education. I have been working with elementary school children for the past 17 years, in various roles. I've been a special education teacher, a basic education teacher, an interventionist, and I am currently a Student Support Specialist for my school district. I have also been tutoring students off and on in a small group setting or one-on-one for the last 15 years. My passion is teaching children to read through explicit phonics instruction and hands-on experiences."
