Discover the Power of Collaboration:
Expert Literacy Thinking Partner Sessions
Step into a mentoring experience where you’re not just supported—you’re empowered. Whether you’re an educator refining your literacy practice or a parent seeking to help your child thrive, these sessions are designed to meet you where you are.
As your dedicated Thinking Partner, I bring years of hands-on expertise as a bilingual/ESL teacher, reading specialist, interventionist, dyslexia therapist, former school administrator, and professional trainer in literacy and English Learner education. Together, we’ll co-create practical, research-based solutions that support your goals, your students—or your child—and your journey.


What Are These Mentoring Sessions?
​
Each mentoring session is a personalized, client-driven consultation—your questions, challenges, and interests set the agenda. This is your chance to tap into focused expertise, receive individualized guidance, and walk away with new strategies you can use right away. Before our meeting, you’ll submit a form with your objectives, background, and any specific topics on your mind, ensuring every session is meaningful and actionable.
