Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I am a retired teacher specializing in Orton Gillingham Structured Phonics Program. I am a retired elementary teacher of 40 plus years. I have worked with and helped many students over the years learn to read and comprehend with great growth. My success rate is 99%. It is so important to work with your child at a younger age, and then older as they learn much quicker, but nothing is impossible and your child can learn to read! At the moment I am doing all of my work at home. I have openings at different times of the day. Please contact me if you consider having your child tutored online or in my home. Then I can talk more to you. Thank you I do my own initial testing as I prefer to know where your child is learning before i start the Orton Gillingham approach. I charge for 45 minutes or by the hour to be discussed together. $40 for 45 minutes and 50 for an Hour. Please text or call 6026283062,

Linda was my daughters tutor for 18 months. Linda was amazing. She was reliable, diligent, caring and made all the difference with my daughters ability to improve her reading,writing, comprehension, spelling, memorizing and organizing skills.

My son first started working with Linda prior to going into the 1st grade. Although, it took my son time to fully appreciate what he would gain by working with Linda, she was perceptive and adaptive by including another child during the tutoring sessions. It gave him just the right mix of peer support and incentive to apply himself. And every day he looks for words to sound out and read. Thank you so much, you are gift.

Linda has changed learning for all of my children in such a positive way. They love her teaching methods. They also love her fun loving personality and warmth. She truly cares about them and they feel it. She successfully taught my dyslexic son to read. He now loves reading and is one of the best readers in his class.
