What The Community is Saying About Me
For 8 years I worked alongside Debbie as a Kindergarten teacher. During this time I was consistently impressed by her knowledge and understanding of the "science of reading". She uses explicit instruction, a systematic approach and multisensory methods to teach her students. I highly recommend her for any child who needs extra help learning to read or is unable to attend school in person.

Ms. Debbie is hands down the best tutor EVER! Our son was diagnosed with dyslexia & soon after, he started Orton- Gillingham with Debbie. The transformation that he has made is amazing! Our son really struggled with reading and comprehension. Through the tutoring, he was able to learn in the way his brain was meant to learn. Since working with Debbie he has gotten such a confidence boost! He use to HATE reading, now he is excited to read! His excitement to read has everything to do with Debbie! Not only has Debbie made a huge difference in our child's life, she has also made a huge difference in my life. Debbie has created such a great educational plan for my son and has been so informative with any questions my husband and I have. If it weren't for Debbie our son would have slipped thru the cracks. We are so blessed to have her in our lives.
