Summary

Through my adult life I have taught students in several areas and backgrounds. I have always been diligent in providing the best avenues of learning to my students. I have always taken education seriously for myself as well. I became a certified Orton Gillingham teacher to provide my students with one of the best programs that was available for students with dyslexia. I still enjoy teaching and learning from my students. I would love this opportunity to work with your company!
