About Laura
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! My name is Laura. I am caring, supportive, and helpful. I wish to unlock your child's hidden potential. My background is in language arts and learning disabilities. I know the ins & outs of special ed placement and paperwork. I can be a great resource and advocate. I have also been trained in the Orton-Gillingham method. This multi-sensory phonics approach helps struggling students tackle reading, writing, and spelling in a structured, sequential way. I have worked with all age levels, creating dynamic lessons to meet their individual needs. Currently, I am becoming quite proficient on many interactive platforms beneficial to remote learning. I can't wait to share all of this knowledge with someone. Thanks for your consideration. I would love to help your child succeed this year!

Laura is very detail oriented and meticulous. She works well with children. She makes them feel comfortable. She has been working with children for over 20 years! She has worked in school classrooms and for twenty years as a tutor working 1 on 1 with students. I have observed her tutoring children in a multi-sensory reading program and she does a nice job creating a lesson plan suited to the child. She has helped many children improve their reading skills. She laughs with them, she encourages them and she celebrates their successes! Laura a very trustworthy and responsible person. I would trust her with my children. She is a mom herself and she has a mom's compassion and perseverance. She is a person you can count on to be there for you! I would highly recommend her for this job! Nice job! Your review will be really helpful.
