Experience

Speech-language pathologist. Doctorate in psychological sciences. Masters in communication disorders. Bachelors in human development and family studies. Minor in French. Advanced computer skills.

Teaching style

Organized, straight-forward, no "surprises" (no pop quizzes!), clear expectations. I believe in giving students the information they need to succeed. I provide many supports in the classroom and in therapy (visual, auditory, manipulatives), as I recognize that students learn in different ways and that multi-modal presentation of information produces the best learning outcomes.
