The Reading Roots Mission

Confidence Through Success

My goal is to meet every child exactly where they are, helping them to build the skills and confidence to succeed both in our sessions and in their primary classroom. I believe that when a student experiences consistent success and forms a supportive personal connection, their entire relationship with learning can change.

My ultimate goal is to move a child from frustration to confidence. There is no greater joy in my work than when a student returns to a session beaming because they already knew a concept taught in class that day. I am dedicated to helping students unlock their full potential and fostering the same lifelong love of learning that has defined my own career.

Why Specialized Intervention Matters

According to the International Dyslexia Association, as many as 15 to 20 percent of people show symptoms of dyslexia, yet many students never receive targeted, evidence-based intervention. Instead, they are often placed in generic intervention groups.

The consequences are both educational and emotional. Without the right support, students often face:

• Increased anxiety and school avoidance.

• Lowered self-esteem and frustration.

• A widening gap between their potential and their performance.

At Establishing Reading Roots, instruction is structured, systematic, and multisensory, delivered one to one by a credentialed specialist. Lessons are planned from assessment data and adjusted based on how a student performs, with the same practitioner in every session. The plan follows the student rather than a predetermined or fixed package.
