About Deborah

Hi! I am a licensed Virginia teacher and former special education teacher passionate about helping students build confidence, independence, and a love of learning. As an educational consultant, I provide individualized reading instruction, academic support, and homeschool instruction. I work with both homeschool students and children attending traditional schools, tailoring instruction to their unique needs. I have experience with students with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, slow processing speed, emotional/behavioral challenges, and intellectual disabilities. I am trained in evidence-based structured literacy, including Orton-Gillingham-aligned approaches. I hold a bachelor's degree in Psychology and a master's degree in Special Education. I also support families with IEPs, 504 plans, evaluations, and school collaboration. Whether your child needs homeschool instruction, reading support, academic help, or assistance with learning challenges, I would love to help your child thrive!
