About Erin:

When a child struggles with reading, every day can bring frustration. As a Reading Specialist I am able to pinpoint a student’s missing skills and provide the instruction necessary to bridge their reading gaps.


I utilize the Orton-Gillingham Principles of Instruction in both one-on-one and small group instruction. Using all of the learning pathways: seeing, hearing, and movement, I am able to provide engaging lessons that accentuate your child’s strengths and the way they learn best.


Every child deserves to have exceptional instruction to help them reach their goals. I strongly believe that a child will succeed when seen as a whole person rather than just their learning differences. I look forward to helping your child develop a sense of pride and accomplishment in their abilities. 


Please contact us to set up an appointment or a free 15-minute phone consultation to determine how I can best meet your child’s needs.
