Delivering Exceptional Tutoring Service to Students from Kindergarten to Grade 4*

I hold a BSE in Secondary English Education from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater and a current Pennsylvania Level I teaching certificate. After passing the KPERRI exam in June 2021, I am now certified to teach the Orton-Gillingham reading approach and am also CERI certified. I have been teaching in various aspects over the past few decades and am currently a handwork assistant at the Waldorf School of Pittsburgh. Since my oldest child was diagnosed with dyslexia a few years ago, I have been learning about dyslexia which led me to the Orton-Gillingham training program through the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education (IMSE). I have thoroughly enjoyed tutoring a few students this past year for my practicum program. My hope is to support students who struggle with reading, giving them the skills needed to be effective readers.

​

My family and I have lived in Pittsburgh, PA for almost 16 years, but three of those years were spent living overseas. I love making things with my hands: sewing, knitting, painting, cooking and writing!
