I am a dyslexia trained reading and spelling instructor and will work with your child 1-on-1 based on their individual needs. During our first session I will do an informal assessment to determine which topics would be the most beneficial for your child. These could include:

Blending CVC words
Consonant Digraphs (SH, CH, TH, WH, CK, NG)
Open and Closed Syllables
Vowel-R Syllables (also called Bossy R) (ER, OR, IR, UR, AR)
Vowel Pair Syllables (ee, oo, ai, ay, oi, oy, etc)
Final Stable Syllables (also called Consonant LE syllables) (dle, zle, gle, fle, etc)
Vowel Consonant E Syllables  (i-consonant-e,  a-consonant-e, etc)
Overview of all Six Syllable Types 
Improving Reading Fluency
Improving Reading Comprehension
Spelling Generalizations and Spelling Patterns

My dyslexia specialist training, which is Orton-Gillingham based, is not only beneficial for dyslexic students but for any struggling or beginning reader. My main goal is for each student to leave feeling more confident in their reading!  I've witnessed time and time again that the more confident a child becomes, the faster reading growth occurs. 

Striving to add an element of entertainment to reading tutoring, my pug dog Cookie (a certified therapy dog who goes to elementary schools) will be a regular visitor during our sessions. Many of my students' parents tell me that their child can't wait to log on to see what costume Cookie will be dressed in that day! (The best part is the stoic look on his face regardless of the outfit! Haha)
