I am new to Outschool and although I have been teaching students who struggle with literacy for thirty years. I had a dramatic entry into the world of literacy, when my seven-year-old son, Nicholas, failed in first grade. His prospects looked grim as assessments revealed he could read ten words, displayed no strengths, and had a discouraging "low IQ" diagnosis.

I opted to withdraw Nicholas from school, seizing the opportunity to tailor his education. This decision marked the onset of a transformative process, during which I adapted lessons to suit Nicholas's needs. Through relentless reflection and adaptation, I witnessed an astonishing metamorphosis in his learning journey.

Motivated by my personal experiences and Nicholas's remarkable progress, I became a qualified reading specialist. Drawing upon my unconventional background, enriched by diverse cultural encounters, and fueled by an unyielding passion, I assumed the role of District Reading Specialist in Lubbock, Texas.  I dedicated myself to guiding students, aged 7 to 17, who grappled with similar literacy challenges.

I perceive myself not merely as an educator but as a "literacy problem-solver," committed to pioneering innovative approaches to empower dyslexic or struggling learners. My teaching endeavors have spanned continents, from Australia to Texas and New York, where I have tirelessly worked with students lagging in literacy, guiding them toward triumphs in reading.
