"This is our second year working with Pat. The incredible difference she has made for our daughter is nothing short of remarkable. Our daughter has been given the tools she needs to read and spell. More importantly, our daughter has re-gained confidence as she moves from inability to ability to mastery. Pat has combined her expertise, patience, and kindness to help our daughter make tremendous gains."
~Pam
Some students struggle with learning to read, spell and write through traditional teaching methods. Students with a language based learning disability face an even greater challenge. These students can all benefit from individualized, direct, multi-sensory instruction.
I provide one-on-one Orton-Gillingham reading therapy and personalized tutoring to students of all ages who have dyslexia, dysgraphia or just have difficulty with the written word — reading, spelling and writing.
Reading and Spelling
Individualized, private reading therapy and tutoring utilizing the proven Orton-Gillingham teaching methodology, for students who struggle with learning to read, reading fluency, reading comprehension and/or spelling
Writing
Writing is a complex and academically demanding task. Students who struggle with writing can benefit from structured, systematic writing instruction following the Orton-Gillingham approach.
