I tutor  reading, writing and language skills  — using the Orton-Gillingham method — at my home in the Dublin area of Columbus, Ohio.  

I teach dyslexic and non-dyslexic children who have reading, spelling, writing or comprehension difficulties. Some of my students  are ADHD or have other learning disabilities.  Frequently we work on study skills as well.

Dublin is easily accessible from the Worthington, Upper Arlington and Powell areas; I also have students from many other parts of the city.

Now, in July, I am tutoring in the summer program at Marburn Academy, Columbus’s premier K-12 school for children with learning difficulties. I am on referral lists at Marburn Academy in Columbus and the International Dyslexia Association (IDA).

I use the Orton-Gillingham method (a structured, phonics-based, student-centered curriculum).   This multisensory teaching is based on the most current research; it encourages learning and retention by activating several parts of the brain simultaneously. 

Sessions are 50 minutes long.  I tutor all year round.  My fee is in line with those of other Orton-Gillingham instructors. There is NO charge for an initial consultation.

Note: At the moment — July, 2008 – there will be openings after the beginning of August.  Contact me to discuss fall tutoring. 

I have been tutoring adults and children for twenty years, and have taught many hundreds of hours using Orton-Gillingham techniques. In addition to Orton-Gillingham, I’ve also trained in the Wilson method and the several Lindamood-Bell curriculums.
