About Carolyn

I am a licensed teacher trained in the Orton Gillingham approach to helping students with dyslexia and other reading challenges. I am also qualified to tutor elementary students in Cognitively Guided math skills. I obtained a master's degree in education from Hamline University in St Paul and have worked as an elementary teacher primarily in the Bloomington and Shakopee school districts. In addition to being a classroom teacher, I have experience as a math and reading intervention teacher as well as with special education. I also have a background as a registered nurse. I find joy in helping students develop strong reading, spelling, and writing skills.
