Experience
I have worked for the past 7 years (4 years in Georgetown, 3 years in Brookline), as a Special Education teacher for students in grades K through 5. I have worked with students with varied needs, including students with Language Based learning disabilities. I have worked closely with consultants from Landmark School and have attended many of their workshops. I am certified in the Wilson Reading System and have a great deal of experience teaching the program. I also have great experience with the Lindamood Bell programs, LiPs, which addresses decoding and spelling, and Visualizing & Verbalizing for oral expression and reading comprehension. I currently teach in Brookline but am taking a year off to stay home with my baby. I'm available for the summer or after school hours in the fall.
