“We began working with Emily when we recognized our son’s reading and writing challenges in first grade. Her commitment to his learning and the way she teaches is not only massively effective, it's admirable and comes from a place of care.”

“I reached out to Emily when prepping for a school year during which I would provide instruction for a student with dyslexia in my class. My experience working with her was so positive. She was both collaborative and supportive and made sure to check in frequently so we were on the same page. It was clear that supporting me as a teacher and the student in their learning were always her top priorities. Emily’s style involves humor and fun to keep things light for both student and teacher. I felt supported and heard throughout our time working together. Above all, I trust Emily’s knowledge and experience working with exceptional students. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with her again!”

“I just didn’t know the rules and that made it really hard for me to spell and read. But now I know a lot more! I’m getting faster at spelling words right. Stuff makes more sense, and it’s a lot more fun to read.”

“My dyslexic child has been working with Emily since shortly after diagnosis in third grade. Emily is so knowledgeable and skilled at not only the technical aspects of structured literacy instruction but also at connecting with and engaging reluctant readers/writers! The results have been truly stunning – not only have my child’s reading fluency, spelling, and written expression skills improved exponentially, but their confidence has been boosted, positively impacting all aspects of my child’s life.”
