About Me

Nothing gives me greater joy than helping a struggling reader become a successful reader. I have taught reading in public schools for fifteen years with the last six years specializing in multi-sensory techniques to help dyslexic/special education students become successful readers and spellers. I am certified in Wilson Language and trained in Orton-Gillingham techniques. If you have a child you think would benefit from this kind of instruction, I would love the opportunity to be of assistance.

Q&A with Christine

My student and I would practice together, and then I would ask the student to do it on their own. However, depending on the lesson, I might go through a discovery process where I ask them if they see a pattern and help guide them towards discovering the pattern. Then we would practice. If they are having difficulty, I would do immediate error correction and have them repeat the error correct several times using some kind of multi-sensory tool before moving onto something new.
