Having spent many years as a Registered Speech Pathologist with extensive skills in Literacy Intervention, I realised that a lot of children require a level of insight and expertise that goes beyond traditional tutoring and that this was the missing piece of the puzzle for a lot of children, who despite ongoing tutoring, were still struggling with learning the foundations of literacy.
With my focus on helping primary school children to reach their full potential in the areas of reading and spelling, I decided to dedicate my services to being a Literacy Consultant in the Sydney, North Shore area, to ensure that parents are able to privately access the personalised 1:1 support for their child, when they need it.
Drawing on evidence-based literacy approaches and a deep understanding of how children learn to read, my sessions with your child will focus on the underlying skills required for reading and spelling success, not just surface-level practice. This allows your child to make meaningful progress while feeling supported, understood and capable.
The ability to communicate well, not only through voice, but also through reading and writing, has a direct impact on a child's (and subsequent adult's) self-confidence in every aspect of life, from school to relationships and future employment.
I look forward to meeting you and your child and supporting you through this phase in their learning.
