About Fiona

Hi! I'm Fiona, a reading tutor with experience helping over 40 K-5th graders improve their literacy skills. My tutoring is highly tailored to students' reading abilities and aims to create a supportive environment where they can appreciate their progress. I have a B. A. from Carleton College and 2 years experience as an in-school reading tutor. I trained with Amplify Reading, an evidence-based literacy curriculum, and am also familiar with Wilson Reading System. I can support your child in developing: - Phonological awareness - Letter sound knowledge - Sounding out and blending skills - Letter combination recognition - Fluency - Comprehension Want your child to build phonological awareness through games of I Spy? Or learn to use context clues with Balderdash? My lessons are designed to be interactive and maximize the time students spend practicing a concept. Let's help your child shock their teachers with their reading gains this summer!
