Empowering Struggling Readers to Shine!
Get to Know Me!
Hello, and welcome! As you explore my story, you'll discover the deep passion that has driven my journey as an educator and learn how I'm dedicated to helping struggling readers find their voice and confidence in the world of words.
During my years as a 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade English/Language Arts teacher, I had the privilege of nurturing young minds and guiding them through the intricacies of language and literature. However, amid the bustling classrooms and eager learners, there was a group of students who captured my heart – those who hesitated to read out loud.
Their reluctance wasn't due to a lack of interest or capability; it stemmed from something deeper. I understood their fear of appearing less skilled in front of their peers. It was the knowledge that they were struggling readers, and the prospect of stumbling over words made them hesitant to embrace reading openly.
It was in these moments of longing to make a difference that my journey as a reading tutor began. I realized that I could bridge the gap for struggling readers, providing them with the one-on-one, uninterrupted attention they deserved. The opportunity to unlock the doors to a world of words and comprehension became my mission.
As a reading tutor, I've had the privilege of witnessing the incredible "lightbulb moments" when my students grasp a concept or overcome a reading hurdle. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the spark of understanding in their eyes, the newfound confidence in their voices, and the knowledge that they are not alone in this journey.
Today, I'm here to offer my expertise and experience to help your child or student shine in their reading journey. Whether it's mastering phonics, improving comprehension, or simply reigniting their love for reading, I'm committed to guiding them every step of the way. Let's embark on this transformative journey together.
