About Linda
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'm a special education teacher with over 30 years' experience working with pre-K through adult students. I specialize in working with students with reading disabilities. I'm trained in Wilson, Let's Read, and Read Naturally reading programs. I'm able to remediate deficits in decoding, fluency, and comprehension. I'm also experienced in working with ML adults on conversational skills. I'm available to run literature circles and writers' workshops with small groups of students. During the summer months I am also available for pet care, errands, and senior companionship.

She responded quickly - so 2 stars for that. But she declined our invitation to talk further, claiming she wasn't currently taking on new clients. So, that was a bit disconcerting.
