About Kirsten

Kirsten has provided Orton-Gillingham tutoring to students with dyslexia and other learning challenges since 2011. She conducts regular evaluations and progress monitoring, uses multi-sensory techniques, and loves to incorporate creativity into her lessons to enhance student learning. Kirsten often collaborates with her students' teachers to align the instruction and intervention the students are receiving in tutoring with the additional support they are receiving at school. Kirsten is currently pursuing steps to becoming a national trainer of Orton Gillingham through the Institute for Multisensory Education and is seeking students to take part in a practicum. Her typical rate is $90/hour, but she has two immediate openings for students in Grades K-3 to be part of a practicum. As part of the practicum, tutoring would take place twice/week for 1-hour sessions with a rate of $25/hour.
