I'm an
Agency / Company
I am new to the area and excited to bring my expertise to my new community. After several years teaching English, Creative Writing and Social Studies in New York City, I decided to add to my skill set in order to better help struggling students to catch up and even get ahead. I therefore went back fro a Master's in Literacy, and studies under renowned Literacy expert Katherine Stahl. The past few years, my specialization has helped me to assist students in making several grade-levels worth of growth in matter of months as the Reading Specialist for a middle and high school in the NYC Department of Education. My approach is based upon the principle that every student is different, and therefore needs instruction specially designed for him or her. I begin by giving a range of assessments to determine what skills a student has already developed and identify areas in need of additional support. I then customize my lessons based on student need, and continual monitor progress to ensure that my lessons are working, and if I think progress could be happening quicker, I adjust accordingly. Don't wait for a report card or test to find out if your student is making progress. I can provide a comprehensive assessment of where your student is at, in order to develop a plan to get them where you want them to be! Go to galvinreading..... to learn more!
