This is my heart in one image. Reading is the path to freedom but it is the thing that entangles and traps so many students.
Thank you, Paddy Donnelly for creating such a powerful image of the deep struggle that dyslexics experience.
We keep showing up, keep reading, keep writing and keep working for these students so that they can follow their calling.
Never stopping. Until every child can read.

January 2016 was the first time I sat down with a student and a bunch of letter tiles. It's been ten years of learning, spelling, reading and cheering for my students.
From one student, to many; from a few letter tiles to a literacy movement, I am so grateful and excited for my calling.
Here's to every brave learner I've had the honor to teach.
You've made me a better teacher.
Moving forward, I remain committed to my team and my students and to helping them become the victorious reader they were each created to be.
Let's do this!
š When a child struggles with reading or spelling, itās not always easy to pinpoint why.
Thatās why I use the WISTāa trusted assessment that helps me dive deeper into how a student processes sounds, reads, and spells.
Itās not just about scoresāitās about finding the right path forward.
I love using this tool to better support each learner and give families real answers.

The best teachers never stop learning!
I started my journey with Wilson Language when one of my students hit a wall with his learning and we needed a new approach.
Wilson is the best Tier 3 intervention program and Iām excited to dive into the Tier 2 intervention that IMSE offers.
Back to school for me in more ways than one! š

Back to school can be a time of excitement, but for some students, the thought of reading can bring anxiety. Let's turn that fear into confidence!
The Literacy Ladder exists to help struggling readers become confident readers!
Back to school doesn't have to be scary. Let's partner together for reading help and let's make reading a joy!
