1. What kind of program do you run to help students?
2. What is one thing parents should do before they come to you?
3. What is one advice you would tell parents?
When students come to me, many of them have had educational psychological evaluations done, and they are very worried that something is wrong with their child, especially when the test scores are low.
I want parents to know that their child is perfect the way they are and that my job is to provide strategies that facilitate their child’s learning so that their child can achieve their highest learning potential. All test scores can be improved! It is important to instill a growth mindset belief in our children.
4. Could you tell us about your qualifications and background?
I have a Reading Specialist Masters degree and am certified by New York State in Literacy from Birth to Grade 12. I also have a Ph.D. in Cognitive Studies in Education with a focus on reading research from Teachers College, Columbia University.
