Are you ready to change your child’s IEP? 

As a parent with a child who struggles to read, you want what’s best for your child every day, but in your eyes, no one at school seems to understand exactly what your child needs for a successful school day.

I get it. I’ve been there too.

I can’t wait to help you.

Imagine if…

 

 

You could breathe easy when sending your child to school because they have access to the proper accommodations.

You could confidently communicate with your child’s teachers. 

You can sleep better at night knowing your child was making progress at school 

You could have more time to do fun things with your child and family instead of worrying.

 

Hi! I’m Ann

I remember that feeling of walking into my first IEP meeting, and feeling overwhelmed. I never want you to feel that way at all.

With over 30 years of experience both in the classroom setting as a Special Educator, as a parent, and now as a grandparent, I have been able to help families that have a struggling reader in their family navigate the IEP process with success. 

As an online reading tutor who specializes in children with dyslexia, I have been able to collaboratively support families across the nation

I am a proud member of the Master IEP Coach® Network, and I cannot wait to help you on your IEP journey.

Your IEP Partner.
