Hi, I'm Mrs. Debbie, your helpful reading specialist.

My home is a kaleidoscope of neuro-diversities and learning struggles. ADHD, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Hyperlexia, Autism .... basically our house is loud, and VERY silly.

I've been teaching since 2005, was trained in the Orton Gillingham method in 2011. I've worked in public, private and homeschool communities. I've been a teacher, IB Coordinator, Special Ed Coordinator/Student Advocate, Curriculum Director and have been developing my literacy program for over ten years now. It was designed through much trial and error with real kids, in real classrooms. My students have tried, tested and advised me every step of the way. That's too much stuff on the page Mrs. Debbie. This is taking too long. That story is boring. The print is too small, it makes my head hurt. Put a poop emoji in it!!

Your turn! Introduce yourself below. What should we call you? Number of kiddos? What's your biggest struggle right now?

I am looking forward to getting to know you all and sharing a lifetime of hard won skills and all my little kiddos have taught me. This is going to be fun!
