Personal information
Bio
My passion is working with struggling readers using the most up-to-date, scientifically researched reading methods.
I have 25 years experience as a certified reading specialist, special education teacher, and language arts instructor, grades 2 - adult.
I also worked for Wilson Language Training as a National Trainer/Consultant. As a National Trainer, I conducted workshops and year-long practicum trainings to teachers and administrators throughout the United States and Canada.
There is nothing more satisfying to me than helping students to gain the confidence and skills they need to achieve success in school and life!
