A three-tiered approach to support children and the adults who care for them

For students who need more than just help with homework.

Academic struggles are rarely just academic. I work one-on-one with students to build both subject-area skills and the underlying executive function abilities — planning, time management, organization, task initiation, self-monitoring — that determine whether those skills actually get used. I am experienced in Orton-Gillingham reading instruction, Judith Hochman’s The Writing Revolution, and David Berg’s Making Math Real, among other modalities. Sessions are tailored to how each student's brain works, not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.

This is a fit if your student:

  • Struggles with organization, follow-through, or time management

  • Has an IEP, 504 plan, or diagnosed learning difference

  • Is bright but underperforming relative to their ability

  • Needs support that goes beyond subject tutoring alone

Family Advising & Advocacy

For families navigating a system that isn't always easy to navigate.

Whether you're just beginning to suspect your child needs support, or you're deep into meetings with psychologists and still feeling unheard, I help families understand their rights, prepare for meetings, evaluate school placements, and advocate effectively — without needing a psychology degree to do it. I attend meetings with families when needed and help translate education-system language into a clear plan of action. I also help families create strategies that can ease the tension around homework and routines at home, especially for neurodivergent students.

This is a fit if you:

  • Are new to the evaluation process and don't know where to start

  • Feel dismissed or overwhelmed in school meetings

  • Are considering a school move, in the U.S. or internationally

  • Want a second opinion on a school's recommended plan

  • Need help creating afterschool routines that your child will actually stick to

School-wide Professional Development & Consulting

For schools in the U.S. or abroad ready to build truly inclusive classrooms.

Effective school leadership and teaching staff training turns inclusive education from a policy on paper into daily classroom practice. Administrators gain the frameworks to lead learning support systems with confidence, and teaching staff gain the tools to reach every learner, including students with learning differences or complex profiles.

Programs are shaped by direct experience leading the strategic development of PK-12 learning support program at international schools, training large and linguistically diverse faculty, and designing multi-week formal workshops for government education ministries. Every school leadership and PD engagement is built around your school’s actual student population, staffing, resources, and culture — not just a template.

This is a fit if your school:

  • Is building or restructuring a learning support program, including at a new or growing school

  • Wants to strengthen staff understanding of inclusive classroom practice and neurodiversity in a culturally sensitive way

  • Is expanding special education/learning support services for the first time

  • Needs an outside expert to assess and strengthen current practice, remotely or on-site
