About Atusa
Experience: 10 yrs
With over 20 years in private practice, I specialize in structured literacy and math intervention for students ages 4 to 18+ with dyslexia, ADHD, dyscalculia, and auditory processing differences. As a Lindamood-Bell trained specialist, I work on the mechanics: phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency, and number sense. My specialty is understanding learning differences and how the nervous system, attention, and emotional regulation are inseparable from learning. Gaps at the base don't resolve with more effort. They resolve with the right approach, applied precisely. For students who struggle to regulate or focus, I incorporate movement and purposeful activities that build stamina and sustained attention. I collaborate with neuropsychologists, pediatricians, and school teams. I offer in-person and virtual sessions. For more: linkedin. com/in/atusaamani
Most recent review
We love Atusa. Our 4-year-old is learning English as a second language and Atusa was very professional and approached things in a methodical fashion; at the same time, she was incredibly warm to N. N. had a lot of fun working with Atusa and she still says she misses her. We were just saying we wish she would move to Amsterdam with us!
