Does my child need a Psycho-Educational Assessment or diagnosis to benefit from Orton-Gillingham tutoring?

No. This science-backed method can be effective with struggling readers whether or not they have a diagnosis.

What are your qualifications?

I hold a Bachelor of Education and have over 20 years of classroom teaching experience. I currently work as a Learning Strategist supporting students with diverse learning needs as well as their teachers and parents.

I am an accredited Orton-Gillingham Practitioner and regularly pursue ongoing professional development on topics including multi-sensory instruction, the science of reading and self-regulated strategy development for writing.

Do you offer online tutoring?

Multi-sensory learning is best facilitated in person, but I am open to offering a hybrid solution with at least one session per week in person and subsequent weekly sessions online.

Will you tutor in my home?

No. In person sessions are taught at my home in Lake Chaparral in SE Calgary.
