Supporting  Learning Needs

Executive function and self-regulation skills are the mental processes that enable us to plan, focus attention, remember, and juggle multiple tasks. 

An executive functioning session might include:

• Creating calendaring and task management systems
• Prioritizing assignments in order of difficulty and importance
• Breaking long-term assignments into long, manageable steps and create a plan for completion
• And more!

I support students who need extra help with grade-level content, and I also plan and design personalized instruction for students with learning gaps who need targeted remediation to build foundational academic skills.

Academic areas I work in include:

• Foundational reading skills (decoding, phonics-based instruction, fluency)
• Reading comprehension (grades K-12)
• Writing (grades K-12)
• Mathematics (K-precalculus)
• History/Social Studies (grades K-12)
• Science (K-8)
• AP: US History, Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition

• Digital SAT (all sections)
• ACT (all sections)
• PSAT
• Pre-ACT
• ISEE
• SSAT
• HSPT
• State end-of-year standardized testing
• Private school entrance exams

I support students in planning, writing, and editing college essays, including supplemental essays and personal statements, through all steps of the process:

• Brainstorming/Pre-writing
• Planning
• Drafting
• Revising
• Editing
• Essay Tracking/Submission

As a former public school special education teacher and case manager for students in grades K-12, I can offer a second set of eyes for your student’s IEP, or recommendations for accommodations, goals, or services.

Do you or your student need support with something not listed here? Send me a message, and we’ll see if we can work something out!
