Upon completing the Orton-Gillingham certification training with the Dyslexia Institute of Minnesota, Julia worked as a Remedial Reading teacher at a private elementary and middle school, working both with dyslexic and non-dyslexic learners in small reading intervention groups. She then worked as a private tutor for a family with two children learning with dyslexia, supporting them with OG tutor sessions and overall academic support.
Her tutor sessions foster a safe and warm learning environment; drawing inspiration from the personal interests and learning style of the child. Her teaching and tutoring draw on a holistic approach, some of such philosophies deriving from Waldorf education.
With experience working in both public and Waldorf schools, as a tutor, teacher and aide, she carries a breadth of skills and knowledge to nurture and enrich the education of each child.
