Is Your Child Struggling with Reading or Spelling?
In today’s competitive academic environment, watching your child fall behind can be worrying. It can be tough to see your child get frustrated with letters and words. Sometimes, this can be a sign of dyslexia, a common learning difference that affects how the brain processes language. It’s not about being “smart” or “not smart”—it simply means their brain learns in a unique way.
Read Well Spell Well offers a different approach from big tutoring centres. Instead of a one-size-fits-all program, I create a learning experience that’s all about your child. I work closely with kids from Kindergarten to Year 2, focusing on building the foundational skills they need. My goal is to help your child overcome their challenges and discover their true potential. By focusing on their specific needs, we can build a strong foundation for reading and writing, helping them feel empowered and confident in their abilities.
The Read Well Spell Well Difference: Why My Service Stands Out
Expertise You Can Trust
As a former speech pathologist with years of experience in primary schools, I’ve seen firsthand how challenging learning to read and spell can be for some children.My approach is built on evidence-based instruction. I begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand your child’s unique literacy profile. This allows me to tailor a learning plan specifically for them and track their progress over time. I’ve been trained in several highly effective, research-backed programs. My aim is to help your child feel confident and successful while building a strong foundation for a lifetime of reading and spelling success.
Customised, Tailored Approach
Many tutoring centres rely on group sessions, computer-driven programs, or university students without specialised training in literacy intervention. I believe lasting progress comes from undivided, individual attention. Every session is a live, personalised interaction, carefully designed around your child’s unique learning style—delivered by me, a highly experienced specialist in reading and spelling.
A Proven, Evidence-Based Approach
My methods aren’t guesses—they’re rooted in the Science of Reading. Using structured, multisensory techniques, I systematically address gaps in phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. This isn’t a quick fix—it’s a permanent solution.
Real, Local Experience
With years of experience helping primary school-aged children in Sydney’s northern suburbs, I understand the pressures students face. I have deep empathy for children with learning difficulties and a genuine passion for helping them succeed.
Credentials & Professional Memberships
Your child’s safety and success are my top priorities.
I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and professional tutoring experience tailored to your child’s individual needs. My credentials reflect this commitment:
✅ Current Working with Children Check
✅ National Police Clearance
✅ Registered Tutor with SPELD NSW
✅ Member of Learning Difficulties Australia
These qualifications ensure that your child is learning in a secure and trusted environment, guided by a tutor who understands and supports diverse learning needs. You can feel confident knowing that I meet the highest standards of safety and professionalism.
Tutoring Services
I offer flexible and convenient options to fit your family’s schedule:
In-Person 1:1 Tutoring:
For a focused, distraction-free environment, I provide individual in-person tutoring in Roseville. This allows for hands-on, multisensory learning that is highly effective.
Live Online Sessions:
Can’t make it in person? My live online sessions are just as effective. Using an interactive digital whiteboard and video conferencing, I can create an engaging and effective learning experience, right from the comfort of your home.
Tutoring Fee
For an investment of $110/ 50 minutes, my affordable service is better value than expensive allied health therapy and other specialised literacy services.
Don't Wait for the Struggle to Grow:
Reading and spelling difficulties don’t disappear on their own. Early intervention and the right kind of support are key to building confidence and preventing further academic and emotional challenges. There is no such thing as a ‘wait and see’ approach—even if your child is in Kindergarten. If you have concerns about their reading skills, it is always better to seek help early.
