Why should I pick you instead of a cheaper option?

 

Experience and expertise matters.  I have years of experience and know how the brain learns.  I've been a certified teacher since 1993 and have taught learners of all types to read and to love to read.    

 

Intensive intervention requires a specialized level of knowledge. 

​

I specialize in dyslexia intervention and use the Wilson Reading System, an Orton-Gillingham based multisensory, structured literacy approach for students who need comprehensive intervention.
 

With expert targeted instruction, all children can improve their reading skills and reach their full potential. 

​

I have a unique perspective not just as a teacher, but as the parent of a dyslexic child.  Read more about my journey by clicking here.

While you could contract with a cheaper option, you might not get the results your child deserves. 

​

Children with dyslexia or other language-based learning disabilities require systematic, structured lessons over a sustained period of time. 

 

Students I work with progress quickly through the material to become successful readers in a short period of time.

​

In addition, each lesson I teach is diagnostic and prescriptive.  That means that each lesson is planned especially for your child. 

 

It is completely individualized based upon your child's mastery. 

 

Each tutoring session requires significant planning time before it even starts.
