US Grade 3 - 6
Beginner - Advanced Level
Grades K through 3 are so crucial when it comes to mastering the foundational skills for reading. The Big 5 Literacy skills (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension) build upon each other to give your child the best success when learning how to read. Mastery in these five areas (plus writing and oral language) give your child the best chance of succeeding once they get to middle and high school. Learning how to read, write and comprehend do not come naturally to all children but engaging in interventions early on give students the best chance. I have seen amazing things happen during on-going 1:1 or small group extra tutoring.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Utah Teaching Certificate in Special Education
Master's Degree in Education from Florida State University
I am a reading specialist who was trained in Orton-Gillingham as well as have taught students with reading disabilities for 15 years.
I have a master’s degree though the department of education and have been teaching and working with students for the past 20+ years. I am a licensed K-12 special education teacher and was also the academic achievement specialist at my previous in-person school to make sure that all regular education K-8 students were making adequate progress in their academic studies each year. Prior to that I was a therapist for kids ages 5-17 who struggled with behaviors at home and at school.
Throughout my experiences as an art therapist and then as a special education teacher, I have seen that children learn best when engaged in hands-on acitivities. They tend to retain information much more effectively when enaged in active learning. Besides learning the class standards, one of the other focuses for students in this class will be on actively participating.Reviews
