About Me<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Hello! My name is Katie. I\u2019m a lifelong student with a passion for learning about specific learning disabilities (including dyslexia and dysgraphia) and structured literacy intervention methods. I live in Southern NH with my husband and two children. We love to take walks in the woods with our rescue dog, Theodore, and we enjoy family game nights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

My Qualifications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am a certified Wilson Dyslexia Practitioner and Structured Literacy Dyslexia Interventionist, both of which are certifications recognized by the International Dyslexia Association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you looking for an Orton Gillingham (OG) tutor? OG is a structured literacy approach, and the Wilson Reading System is an Orton Gillingham-based program. This means that if you’re looking for an Orton Gillingham practitioner, you’re in the right place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and a Master of Education in Special Education. I have eighteen years of experience as a special education teacher in high-needs public school districts. I hold special educator licensure in both Massachusetts and New Hampshire. I’m trained in Orton Gillingham methodology, the Wilson Reading System, and Lively Letters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I specialize in working with students who have dyslexia, the structured literacy approach I use is highly effective for all children. In fact, the methods that help struggling readers learn to decode and spell are the same strategies that give all students a solid foundation in literacy. Whether your child has been diagnosed with dyslexia or is simply learning to read and write, this approach ensures systematic, explicit instruction that builds confidence and lasting skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
