I am an associate of the Orton Gillingham Academy for Practitioners and Educators and have a Masters Degree in Literacy from the University of Georgia. Over the past 10 years, I have been teaching and tutoring students in pre-K through 6th grade. Most recently I held the position of Literacy Specialist for a top private elementary school in Atlanta Georgia. I am currently a tutor for students in pre-K through 8th grade. I also have a 3 year old daughter and a 5 year old son. I work with the level of the students in the class to personalize their learning experience.
