About Marilyn
Experience: 8 yrs
I'd describe my personality as dependable, patient, and creative. I love tutoring because helping a child go from struggling to confident is incredibly rewarding. I'm looking for a position where I can use a structured, evidence-based approach like Orton-Gillingham to help children who need extra support in reading. I started tutoring in 2018 as an online English teacher with VIPKid. After that, I began working independently with students, and this year I've incorporated the Orton-Gillingham approach to support children in developing strong reading skills. 1. Personalized Instruction - Adapting lessons to fit each child's learning style and pace. 2. Multisensory Reading Strategies - Using Orton-Gillingham and other evidence-based methods to make reading engaging and effective. 3. Patience and Encouragement - Creating a positive environment that builds confidence and reduces frustration. Virtual classes only.

Ms. Marilyn is a gem. She has worked with my 6 yr old the last few months and does an amazing job of helping him retain information. He has made so much progress, not just in his reading skills, but in his overall confidence. Her structured, patient approach is exactly what he needed. We highly recommend her!
