Providing students the tailored support they need to experience academic success has been my passion for over 25 years. I now offer families thoughtfully designed, personalized literacy lessons, in a beautiful classroom environment.
​
Throughout my teaching career, I have come to recognize the incredible power of early reading and writing intervention. Working in Calgary's independent school environments has provided much experience and insight.
I had the privilege to be the Head of Academic Student Services for a large and well-regarded K-6 independent school for many years and was able to create strong and trusting relationships with the families I worked with.
Much of my education, professional development, and time at school has focused on finding the best methods to ensure students gain the critical literacy skills they need to feel comfortable and confident in the classroom.
​
My extensive research and personalized approach in the area of literacy get results and I am looking forward to working closely with each family to create a flexible well-designed program for their child.

​"All three of my kids had a BLAST at your summer camp. On the last day, my son broke into tears and said he wanted to do this camp again next year.
Over the summer, the kids did many camps. But, it was yours that made my child emotional when it ended and it was your camp that all three want to do again next year!"
