Experience Summary
I am a dual certified Reading Specialist and Elementary School Teacher with a Masters in Literacy/Cognition. I have experience working as a 1st grade teacher, tutor, literacy interventionist and reading specialist. I’m trained and experienced in a research based intensive phonics program, and I use it with K-3 students to teach phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding and high frequency word fluency. I use an extension of the same program with 4th and 5th grade students to teach word decoding by phonemes (sounds), graphemes (2-3 letter sounds), and morphemes (chunks of words with meaning).
Teaching Style
I create personalized lessons that are geared to your child’s strengths and weaknesses
My Hobbies
I enjoy singing and hiking.
Other Comments
I know how difficult it can be to see your child struggle in reading and math and not know how to help.
