More About This Tutor...

As a Certified Dyslexia teacher, I teach Orton-Gillingham multisensory curriculum to students with dyslexia and other reading deficits. My one on one tutoring is designed to get to the root of the problem by building and reinforcing phonemic and grapheme awareness using sight, sound and touch. Being an elementary substitute teacher and certified dyslexia teacher I continue my professional development in my areas of expertise.
My teaching style is multisensory, utilizing sight, sound and touch. I'm very patient and I love teaching children. For me, the highlight of teaching is when a child suddenly gets that 'aha moment'; when the light bulb finally turns on and the child understands the concept. My goal is to make sure my students feel safe, important and intelligent while having fun learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching middle school science for the past eight years at a local Middle School. My endorsement is in biology. For the past four years I have been enrolled in a master's degree program in reading at ODU. This May I will graduate from that program. My goal is to teach reading and work with struggling readers. I am also qualified to tutor biology.
I enjoy working with children and helping them meet academic goals. As a tutor my job would be to find out how a child learns best. Learning styles can include auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Children also need engaging,interesting, and varied activities during their learning experiences. Another key point would be to identify strengths and weaknesses and to build a plan based on that information. I feel that all children can succeed.
