Studies show that 67% of 4th graders are reading below grade level.

Studies also show that with the right tools and strategies, 95% of neuro-typical kids can learn to read by the end of first grade.

We have better science than ever before to show us the BEST strategies and tools to help kids learn to read, even those that are working with neuro-divergence..

Hello! My name is Emily. As a passionate and dedicated educator, my journey in the world of teaching has been a fulfilling adventure that spans over a decade. With a Professional Teaching Certificate from the State of Florida in Exceptional Student Education, I have honed my skills to cater to the diverse needs of students, particularly those on the autism spectrum—an area in which I hold an endorsement. My commitment to fostering an inclusive learning environment has been a driving force in my career, allowing me to make a meaningful impact on the lives of my students.

Currently, I am pursuing my Master's in Elementary Education at Nova Southeastern University, a journey that will culminate in the fall of 2025. This academic endeavor not only deepens my understanding of pedagogical strategies but also enriches my teaching practice, enabling me to bring fresh, evidence-based approaches to the classroom. I believe that education is not merely about imparting knowledge; it’s about igniting a passion for learning and creating a love for reading that lasts a lifetime.

With over 10 years of experience in teaching reading and phonics across multiple grade levels, I excel at crafting engaging lessons that captivate my students’ imaginations. My focus on personalized learning plans ensures that I can meet each child where they are, tailoring my teaching methods to unlock their unique potential. I am currently seeking a tutoring position that will allow me to continue this vital work, helping children not only to improve their reading skills but also to gain the confidence and motivation to thrive academically. In every lesson, I strive to create an environment where students feel safe to explore, make mistakes, and ultimately discover the joy of learning—a place where their voices are heard, and their dreams are nurtured.

My tutoring policies include a free consultation meeting. I am easy to reach and will answer your questions in a timely manner. I look forward to hearing from you.
