Providing students the tailored support they need to experience academic success has been my passion throughout my 25 years of teaching. I am now excited to offer a new way to support families through well-designed literacy lessons, offered in a beautiful classroom-like environment.
​
Throughout my time in teaching, I have come to recognize the incredible power of early reading and writing intervention. As the Head of Academic Student Services for a large and well-regarded K-6 independent school, I've gained a great deal of experience and insight.
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.

"Collaborating with Wendy empowered me to better meet the needs of my students. Her approach has students developing important strategies, and during their time with her, students gain confidence in applying these strategies with greater independence. Wendy’s collaboration and communication with teachers and parents allows for seamless goal-making for student growth and achievement."

Writing has always been challenging for our son and he struggled to focus long enough to successfully complete a story. He is now learning how to organize his thoughts and he is finding more enjoyment in the process. We are sure this will help him in all subjects. Wendy finds ways to connect with kids so they feel successful.
