I'm Mrs. S for short, I am so excited to be here and share a creative learning experience with your little learners.

Education:
I am a student for a Doctorate of Education at Regent University. I am a graduate of Liberty University with a Master's in Human Service Counseling, Adult and Child Development. An undergraduate in Early Childhood Education. I am also trained in Orton Gillingham's approach, the Wilson Reading program for dyslexic and reading deficiencies. I am trained to administer informed assessments to gather data for initial and ending growth for students. The data is helpful for planning and IEP support.

Methods:
The most important aspect of reading is to learn word patterns and spelling rules. All words consist of a pattern. Vowels are the glue to form a word. I use the Wilson Language System because it provides a structured curriculum. OG is not a curriculum but an approach to teaching the patterns of words. The two together complement each other and are both proven for success when followed.

Personal Statement:
I am dyslexic and have ADHD so I have first-hand experience. I provide compassion, patience, and understanding to each student building confidence.
I developed a passion for dyslexic learners several years ago when my daughter was diagnosed. It was a long journey finding the right resources and providers but after a lot of research and training, she has shown tremendous growth. I am a wife to a soldier in the Navy, with 3 kids, and 2 grandchildren. They all make my life full and full of love. I cannot wait to meet you and your children so I can be a part of the fun personal learning experiences we will get to share together.
