Bio:   Growing up, I struggled in school, but in high school I tutored my peers and became passionate about learning. For 40 years I have invested in others’ academic success. From bush Alaska to the jungles of Costa Rica, God gave me opportunities to teach elementary school, special education, English as a second language, homeschool our three children, and mentor homeschool moms while tutoring their children. My desire as an educational therapist and certified teacher is to serve children and adults as they overcome learning challenges and become confident and competent lifelong learners.

Bio:   Hello! I am a teacher turned homeschool mama to my three kids. I have homeschooled for ten years. I also teach in the co-op setting to about 50 students each year. I teach mostly reading intervention with phonemic awareness and literature classes for upper elementary. I have a BA in English Literature and a M.Ed. in Secondary Education. Before I had children of my own, I taught classes at a live in teen rehab in Los Angeles. I love learning and feel that first, I'm always a student. My youngest was diagnosed with severe dyslexia and having a NILD therapist has made such a difference and I'm eager to learn to continue to help her and others!

Bio:   Have Tutor Will Teach was formed in April, 2000, to meet the needs of students in the Tri-County region of Digby, Shelburne, and Yarmouth counties of Nova Scotia. Home-schooling three of our children, the youngest being severely brain-injured from an accident, challenged me to extend my knowledge of working with a broader scope of clientele. After I became an NILD educational therapist I added the business, The Four R's: Reading, 'Riting, 'Rithmetic, and Relationships for working with students with learning difficulties. I have a Master’s degree in Education with a specialization in Educational Therapy and Dyslexia Therapy. I am a Professionally Certified Educational Therapist through the National Institute for Learning Development Canada and the USA and a Certified Dyslexia Therapist through the International Dyslexia Association. *I have taken a course in teletherapy so I am now capable of working with long-distance students online. This has provided much needed assistance to both the students and their parents. Have Tutor Will Teach/The Four R's: Reading, 'Riting, 'Rithmetic, and Relationships works with a wide variety of students. I have worked with many special needs students as well as diversified learners. My Bachelor of Science degree in Dietetics has enabled me to work with parents and their children on dietary issues that affect learning and behaviour. I have worked with pre-school through university students, ESL, and GED. As an Educational Therapist I have worked with people of all ages who have had strokes or Acquired Traumatic Brain Injuries besides those individuals with learning challenges. As a Certified Dyslexia Therapist I have worked with young students and older individuals with dyslexia ranging from mild to severe cases.
