Are online tutoring sessions as successful as in-person tutoring sessions?Yes! The sessions I provide are engaging. I utilize an online platform that allows my remote students to participate live with me, moving components as well as completing necessary exercises with ease. I incorporate a lot of educational games to test drive what we have learned, too. Online tutoring is also quite efficient, removing the need for commuting to and from sessions.

What methodology do you use when tutoring my child?I use the proven Barton Reading and Spelling System, which is Orton Gillingham-based and has been successful in teaching reading and spelling for over 30 years. The Orton Gillingham methodology promotes multi-sensory learning, using tactile, auditory and visual senses for an effective and interesting learning experience. I associate spelling rules with stories and logic, which are avenues that children with dyslexia excel in learning from.
