Hi, I’m Elle!
As an educator I value the importance of recognizing and embracing individual learning styles.
As a creative, I inspire using both vivid
imagination and real life elements. It allows for my learners to fuse the abstract into concrete skills .
Most importantly I believe in motivating passion, confidence, and pure joy.
My Teaching Experience
I have over a decade of teaching experience in Early Child Education with grades Pre-k -2nd grade.
After realizing how many children were struggling with reading, I pursued further education and became professionally trained in Orton Gillingham.
Orton Gillingham focuses on the science of reading. Teaching students the “how?” and “why?” behind reading. It also incorporates teaching with a multi-sensory approach, which is much more engaging and supports retaining of information.
“…people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Why it matters
I attended one of the best school districts, yet learning was still very difficult for me.
Not to mention it took me years to find my voice, speak up, and confidently say, “I just don’t get it. Could you please help me?”
Often times children may feel too embarrassed for giving the wrong answer or simply seeking help when among their peers.
They naturally begin to compensate or “blend in” so that “negative” attention isn’t directed towards them.
Although they may seem fine, inside they’re really struggling.
If we do notice this we shouldn’t assume that they will simply “catch up” or “get it”.
Most who struggle to read by third grade often continue to struggle with reading their entire
lives.
It affects their progress with learning, but most importantly their confidence and self-esteem.

How it works
Motivation
- We’ll work together, building upon your child’s strengths and interests that best support their learning journey.
- We’ll also emphasize individual progress and goals rather than comparisons or performances.
- I believe that small successes increase confidence, which then promotes motivation.
Comprehension
- Incorporating real-life elements allows children to discover more about the world.
- It also creates deeper connections within learning.
- We’ll creatively discover new concepts & vocabulary that support understanding of context, words, and their meanings.
