About Leah

Experience: 16 yrs

I hold a Master's degree in English and Childhood & Special Education Grades K-6. I have been an educator for over 15 years in NYC. During this time, I have helped many students improve their grades and achieve their academic goals. I believe that every student is unique and requires a personalized approach. That's why I customize my lessons to meet the specific needs and learning style of each student. I am available for tutoring sessions at flexible hours, including evenings and weekends. I understand that students have busy schedules, and I am willing to work around their commitments. Certified in K-6 Education & Special Education, trained in the Orton-Gillingham approach, a structured and multisensory method designed to support individuals with dyslexia and reading challenges
