I am a Barton tutor with nine years of experience teaching the Barton Reading and Spelling System. I am an educator dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and adolescents with dyslexia or learning differences.
As a mother of a child with profound dyslexia, I uniquely understand your concerns. I am passionate about helping children and adolescents with dyslexia and those suspected of having dyslexia. I utilize proven techniques and research-based instruction designed to improve academic success. The Barton System contains all of the essential components of reading instruction required by the No Child Left Behind Act and meets the National Institutes of Health’s description of best practices for students with dyslexia.
