"I specialize in providing personalized, one-on-one instruction to help students unlock their full potential. With 7 years of experience as a special education teacher, I've had the privilege of working with students from kindergarten through 5th grade in academic and life skill areas. I hold a master's degree in special education and am dedicated to making learning accessible and effective for every student.

My expertise is rooted in proven, multi-sensory approaches. I have training and hands-on experience using research-based methods such as IMSE Orton-Gillingham (OG+), Sonday Reading System, Barton Reading & Spelling, and Really Great Reading. Additionally, I hold certifications from the Online Language & Literacy Academy (OL&LA), specializing in structured literacy and have completed a 30 hour course on using IMSE's Orton Gillingham based Method.

When working with learners, I strive to create a supportive and engaging environment where students feel confident to tackle challenges and build a lifelong love of learning. My experience as a special education teacher has afforded me the opportunity to engage with a wide array of learners making me skilled in meeting students on their level. Additionally, as a current teacher, I offer a level of flexibility and up-to-date information on current research, methods, and strategies." less...
