This trained and certified Orton-Gillingham tutor has years of experience supporting struggling readers. If your child is struggling in school, private tutoring is the best option for closing the gap and setting your child up for future success.
Ongoing parent communication and regular progress reports
​An emotionally sound approach that improves your child’s skills while building self-esteem. “Small successes lead to bigger successes.”
Research-based, multisensory approach that is engaging and effective for struggling readers and writers
Personalized instruction designed specifically to address your child’s learning needs
Tutoring
I offer a free initial consultation, where I meet with you (and your child if you choose) to discuss your child’s strengths and needs.
A tutoring plan is established, to provide a baseline for developing a prescriptive plan to meet your child’s specific needs. A minimum of two sessions per week of one hour is required for dyslexia tutoring, in order to affect changes in the brain that are necessary to ensure long-term learning and retention. This intensity is integral to the O-G approach. I provide ongoing benchmarks and plan each lesson to meet your child’s specific needs. I do not just follow a “canned” sequence of pre-made lessons.
