Meet Our Team

I am a structured literacy educator specializing in dyslexia intervention, trained directly in the Barton Reading & Spelling System. For the past six years, I have worked exclusively one on one with students with dyslexia or suspected dyslexia, using evidence based, Orton Gillingham aligned instruction.​

I am also a qualified Resource Consultant for children with diverse learning needs. Earlier in my career, I spent six years as a Registered Early Childhood Educator in Ontario Public Schools, where I worked closely with Resource Consultants to support students in classroom settings. This experience shaped my approach to targeted intervention and led me to specialize in structured literacy and dyslexia support.​

I work with early readers through adolescents who struggle with reading, spelling, fluency, and written expression, especially students who have not made expected progress through traditional instruction. I work closely with families and, when appropriate, school teams to support each child’s growth.​

My goal is to help students move from frustration to confidence and independence. The most rewarding moments are watching a child discover that they are capable, confident learners.​
Outside of my work, I enjoy staying active outdoors, reading, and spending time with my dog.

I am a warm and enthusiastic Early Childhood Educator with over seven years of experience supporting kindergarten and school-age children. I specialize in early literacy, communication, and developmental support, creating engaging, child-centered learning experiences that help students grow in confidence and ability. My approach is patient, encouraging, and tailored to each child's unique needs.

I am an Ontario Certified Teacher with experience supporting primary students in both classroom and tutoring settings. I am passionate about early literacy and enjoy helping children strengthen their reading and writing skills through engaging, supportive instruction that fosters confidence, motivation, and long-term success.

Hi! I’m Seanna. I’m currently completing my Early Childhood Education certification, with a previous Honours Bachelor degree in Food Studies. I’m very passionate about disability justice, with a keen interest in supporting children with learning disabilities or neurodivergence. I’m a learner at heart, and hope to help others find their own love of learning. My approach includes working with children’s strengths and creating a warm, supportive, and fun atmosphere where children can feel comfortable being their own unique selves and look forward to coming back week to week. 

Hello! I’m an experienced educator, and I truly enjoy helping children discover that they are capable of more than they sometimes believe.

For many years, I have worked with children in public schools, including students with IEPs and those who need additional support to succeed in the classroom. I have seen how a little patience, encouragement, and the right approach can make a big difference in a child’s confidence and learning.

I am trained in Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and supporting children who use AAC devices. I have experience working with students following both regular and modified school curricula, and I understand that every child learns in their own unique way.

As a math tutor, I want your child to feel comfortable, understood, and supported. I will meet them where they are, break difficult concepts into smaller steps, and celebrate their progress along the way. My goal is not just to help with math; it is to help children build confidence, develop a positive attitude toward learning, and realize, “I can do this!”

A little support can make a big difference.

Hi my name is Melinda, and I am an Ontario Certified Teacher with a Bachelor of Education, with experience supporting elementary students in both classroom and tutoring settings. I have worked with students across the primary and junior grades, providing individualized support in literacy and mathematics and adapting instruction to meet each student’s unique learning needs.

I have a passion for helping students build confidence in areas they may find challenging. My approach is patient, encouraging, and focused on breaking skills down into manageable steps while celebrating progress along the way. Through my teaching placements, tutoring experience, and volunteer work with the Toronto Public Library’s Leading to Reading program, I have developed experience supporting students with literacy development, reading comprehension, writing, and foundational math skills.

I enjoy creating a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and developing confidence in their abilities.
