Bio:   My services are eligible for Step Up Scholarship reimbursement. I have a Masters degree in Education and an undergraduate degrees in Psychology. I am the owner of Learning Through Discovery, LLC and I have been teaching and or doing educational therapy with students since 2000. I started in the classroom teaching high school math (my first passion) and then spent some time tutoring when my children were little. It was then I found my new passion. Students who were bright but struggled academically. That brought me to NILD. Since them I have worked with students in a school setting and privately that struggle with reading, writing and/or math, along with other neurodiverse co-morbidities such a ADD, Autism, and Kawasaki Syndrome. I also homeschool my daughter who is going into 10th grade, so I love working with homeschool students when I have the chance.
