Are you concerned about your child's reading skills? Have you worried that they may never be able to read? Your child can learn to read and spell. They just need a multisensory method that works. The Orton-Gillingham method has been proven to help students with all types of learning concerns learn to read.

I am a licensed educator with over 8 years experience
working with students who have special needs, and an active
member of the International Dyslexia Association. I have
taught and tutored students at Groves Academy in St. Louis
Park, Minnesota. After leaving Groves Academy I worked as
an Orton-Gillingham academic therapist for the Integrative
Medicine Clinic at Children's Hospital in Minneapolis, MN.
I am currently working as a private academic therapy tutor
and as a contracted academic therapy tutor with the
Alexander Center in Eden Prairie, MN.

I received my teaching degree from Bemidji State and have
completed all four levels of Orton-Gillingham reading
training through Hamline University, The Upper Midwest
Branch of the International Dyslexia Association and
Orton-Gillingham of Minnesota. I have training and
experience implementing the following educational curriculums:

* Orton-Gillingham Reading Approach
* Wilson Reading Approach
* Remediation Plus Reading Approach
* Read Naturally
* Handwriting Without Tears
* Project Read Framing Your Thoughts Sentence and
Paragraph Writing

I look forward to discussing how my programs can help your
child.

Sincerely,
Joan
