Lucy tutors students in grades K through 9 in all subject areas (especially English Language Arts and Math). She is trained in both Orton-Gillingham and Wilson Reading methods. She’s experienced in administering assessments to determine each student‘s specific learning needs. As a Special Education teacher, she has worked with students with a wide range of needs, especially ASD and dyslexia. She is licensed as a Reading Specialist and has taught phonics and reading comprehension strategies in a Resource Room setting. Throughout her work with students at all skill levels, she provides personalized support and a patient and understanding approach to instruction.
Lucy says, “I became a teacher because of my own struggles in school. I am passionate about helping students build their skills and confidence! When I am not teaching I love spending time outdoors hiking and swimming. While I do not have any pets of my own, I work with two local animal shelters fostering both cats and dogs. I look forward to sharing more of my interests and experiences with you and your student!”
