About Gillian
Reading proficiently affects self-esteem and academic performance across the board, and I love to help kids shine. I teach reading, language fluency, handwriting, spelling, and decoding words. The Orton-Gillingham method can be effective in treating dyslexia and other reading challenges.
I am a Mayerson Academy trained Orton Gillingham tutor. Mayerson academy is IMSLEC accredited , and applies explicit, multi-sensory, and diagnostic techniques to tailor every lesson to each individual student.
Every student learns differently, and reading can offer challenges for students that may not learn to read in a traditional way, including students with dyslexia, learning disabilities, and English language learners. The Mayerson program is intended to bridge the gap for those students.
I am accepting new students.
I have always loved everything about reading and literature. When I discovered there was a system that could help struggling readers, I was all in! I love helping kids achieve their full potential!
I am a graduate of Choate Rosemary Hall and hold a degree in English from McGill University. I completed the Mayerson Academy Orton- Gillingham certification program at the teaching/practitioner level.

I've worked with all sorts of kiddos, from pre-k to high school and beyond!
