Experienced tutor in Reading in Washington, Casey offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Casey has been working with my son Jacob, who has dyslexia. Before finding Casey we worked with two other reading specialists, and to be honest, he hated reading tutoring and it became a struggle to get him to go. Jacob doesn't love reading, so feeling connected with his teachers is important to finding meaning and motivation to practice. Casey takes the time to know Jacob, shares in his interests, and works with us to find ways to help Jacob engage with and enjoy his reading sessions with her. She weaves personal connection, good humor, playfulness, and patience, and his interests into high-quality reading instruction and practice, and we have seen so much growth in Jacob's skills, which has supported him in school and in reading for joy. We have also seen a huge shift in his willingness to show up and put in the practice, even on days that are a challenge. Thank you, Casey!

We truly got so lucky in finding Casey! She has been working with our oldest daughter, who has dyslexia and ADHD, for about 8 months now, and soon after we added sessions for our youngest daughter. We only wish we could have found her sooner!!
Our girls look forward to each of their sessions with Casey. She is highly skilled at what she does and has each session planned out perfectly. Her classes are packed with a sequence of multisensory activities and drills that make learning and mastering skills feel like fun for them.
My daughter went from feeling defeated before starting with Casey to feeling empowered as she has proven to herself that, with the right tools and instruction, she could absolutely learn to read!
Casey has also taught me so much! I feel better equipped to support my girls in their learning after all the feedback, techniques, and knowledge she has shared with me.

We are forever grateful for Casey!

Our family feels so lucky to have found Casey. She is an excellent tutor, who has taken a structured and methodical approach to Orton-Gillingham tutoring, but managed to make it fun and engaging for our child. Casey come to every session prepared and with a variety of tasks and methods up her sleeve to switch things up if our child starts to get distracted or feels discouraged. Importantly, she has really made a connection with our daughter and partnered with us in helping building our child's confidence. We can definitely see the results.

My son (7 yo) was nervous about working with a tutor, but Casey made him feel safe and unjudged- he loves working with her and it isn't a fight to get him to do his tutoring sessions! He is gaining confidence and even breaking words down into their phonetic composition in conversations ("hey mom, did you know that 'taxi' has an 'x' in it- [sounds it out]"). Casey has been a great fit for him and I know we will continue to see their work together pay off.

Casey always comes prepared for my daughter's lessons. She is fully equipped with the lesson of the day and it is planned with great consideration for where my daughter is in the learning process. My daughter also has dyslexia and Casey enhances her learning by providing tactile and kinesthetic tools. Most importantly, Casey is kind, patient and motivates my daughter by simply being herself.
Casey is well-trained, invested in my child's growth and development and is kind. I am lucky to know her and have her in my daughter's learning journey.
