"Hello! I am Kelly. I have worked as an elementary special education teacher for 10 years, primarily in grades kindergarten to 4th.

I received my Bachelors and Masters degrees from UConn in Special Education, and a 6th Year Degree from Central Connecticut State University in Literacy & Lanaguage.

I have my CT Special Education certification (#165), Remedial Reading & Remedial Language Arts (#102), and Reading and Language Arts Consultant (#097) certifications.

I love teaching to our youngest learners. I specialize in students with dyslexia but can take all elementary content areas.

My dyslexia work includes an explicit, systematic Orrin-Gillingham approach.

I have tutored for many years, but am new to Wyzant. I specifically do online tutoring.

I would love to work with your student in improve reading skills, particularly phonics, phonemic awareness, decoding, and comprehension skills!" less...
