My specialty is working with children who are struggling to learn to read, write and spell.  I provide dyslexia therapy as well as general tutoring.  If a parent is wondering if their child may be struggling with dyslexia, they can go to my website at www.multisensoryreadingcenter.com, take a fast and easy screener, and then call me for a consultation.  I am then able to partner with the child’s parents either in person or online through a teleconferencing platform to provide expert advice and instruction.

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.  It will significantly increase the reading, writing, and spelling skills of children with or without a diagnosis of dyslexia.

They are either perusing a degree in music or already have their degree in music. They are skillful instructors as well as musically inclined.

We have always worked well with students with learning difficulties and overall handicaps. 
Homeschooling for music is no easy task. You need someone you can trust to inspire and shape your son or daughter musically. What is affordable, yet proven and effective?
