About Shawna

The most important aspect of tutoring at DifferentMindsDifferentMethods is creating a safe space for kids to be vulnerable and willing to work on skills that are tough for them. Finding creative and fun ways to make concepts stick, while teaching an explicit and structured program that is individualized for each learning style, is an important part of each session.

I have a dyslexic son and learning to read was very slow, challenging, and frustrating for him. His tutor worked wonders. She encouraged me to get trained to become a literacy intervention specialist. Being able to take what I learned through supporting him and create an atmosphere that is custom fit to each individual student is such a joy!

I love working with kids and that is why I went into elementary education. When I decided to homeschool, I could teach everything in a fun and individualized way while putting a positive relationship first. I bring all my experience homeschooling my dyslexic son to my tutoring. I love what I do!

I have a degree in elementary education and I have been trained by a foundation that specializes in the Orton-Gillingham method for teaching reading. I have six years of tutoring experience.

About the lesson

If a student is able to read somewhat I will do a quick assessment to figure out what we need to work on and where to start. If they are beginners, I jump right in to the beginning of the curriculum. The first lesson will be a chance to get to know each other and get used to the rhythm of the lessons.

I have worked students that are just needing some support to very profoundly dyslexic students. I have had students with ADHD and also autism.

We have used Shawna for about a year now. Our son has made massive leaps with her. He started with very little reading skills and today he’s writing notes to me and reading in bed all by himself! We are so thankful for her.
Shawna is also working with our older children to teach them cursive and in a short period they have gotten really good!
We highly recommend Shawna for any child!

Shawna is really good at seeing where the kid's strengths and weaknesses are, and caters to those in an individual way to make learning fun, easy, and a positive experience. She has been great to work with for scheduling, billing, and communicating about what will best help my daughter succeed.
