It has been one of my joys in life to teach students with dyslexia and to watch their confidence rise as they discover the sound sequences and patterns of written language. The multisensory approach of this methodology has been the "gold standard" for helping students with dyslexia to become more proficient readers. I craft each lesson individually to tailor it to the needs of each student. I provide lots of structure and review and infuse each lesson with interest so that my students keep ... Read more

Christina
Humanities Teacher: 4th Grade through Adult
My teacher handed me the Iliad when I was fourteen, and I hated it. Eight years and two full tours of the Great Books later, I had learned to like the Western Canon but not how to understand or study it. I still felt like a person at a feast with a stuffy nose. Then I got hired to write Literature class plans and suddenly there was no more "try." What happened next was stranger than fiction, but that's a story I'll save for later. For now, can you relate to my experience? Maybe they kee... Read more
