Early intervention: reading, writing, spelling, Orton-Gillingham, PAF
I love helping kids learn to read! Many students struggle with reading, writing and spelling and are not given the right tools to succeed. I have been trained in Preventing Academic Failure (PAF) which is an early intervention program for teaching reading, spelling, and handwriting. It prevents or addresses reading failure in struggling readers and learning disabled. PAF is the most effective adaptation of Orton-Gillingham instruction and provides children with the building blocks they ne... Read more

Hi, I am currently a teacher with over 24 years experience at the high school and college level, but really like to see young people succeed and become more confident. I have been a coach (baseball, football and basketball) and feel my coaching experience ties in nicely with academics and growing up. I specialize in social studies and how to "get organized" for middle and high school. I believe learning can be fun and hope to take the anxiety and stress out of everyday life for my stude...

Robin
SAT/ACT Expert with 15 years experience
My background includes a BS in Education from Cornell University and MEd in English Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Through the years, I have supported students in writing, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, French and the sciences. Test prep, however, is my favorite because students can develop a high level of anxiety through the process, and it is really wonderful to help diffuse that anxiety and demystify the entire test taking process. I have been working with stu... Read more

I have taught elementary and special education for 11 years. I have been teaching the Wilson Reading Program, the Linda Mood Bell and other reading programs to help children decode and comprehend. Being able to teach individually to each child is the key to learning. I can teach math in many ways using different strategies so all students can learn. I believe that children need to learn how to write a complete sentence before writing paragraphs. From there I use many outlines to help ... Read more
