For 35 years, I was the owner and director of the One-to-One Reading Center on Woodley
and Devonshire in Granada Hills, where we worked with children and adults having
reading problems and other educational difficulties, including ADHD, Dyslexia, and
Math. All our work was always on a one-to-one basis, and we never required contracts.
Now I am working part-time out of my residence, where I have added a room addition
specifically for tutoring and educational therapy. Because I have almost no overhead,
I am able to work at rates 50% or more below the going ET rate. I no longer charge
for cancellations, and will work mornings during non-school days and summer, as
well as after school weekdays, till 8:30p.m. I am a lifetime credentialed Elementary
Teacher in addition to my advanced degrees and my Board Certification with AET.
My specialty has always been reading remediation for LD and Dyslexic persons,
especially children age 6 to about 12, though all ages will be considered if their
problems are appropriate to my expertise. For significant problems, it is recommended
that the student attends at least twice a week. Sessions are usually an hour, but
45 minute sessions can be taken for additionally reduced rates.
