Read & Spell Write Tutoring

Welcome to Read & Spell Write Tutoring!  

My name is Candace Gipson and I have been a tutor for more than a decade.

Whether you are wanting you or your child to catch up on some reading, spelling or writing skills or you have concerns about dyslexia or other struggles, you're in the right place! I learned an important lesson by helping my own children who were struggling readers before becoming a tutor.  Our kids aren't limited by a diagnosis or what the school tells us.  They will rise as much as we believe they are capable of achieving.

With me you will get:

• Individualized lessons for each student.
• We often think of reading and writing separately, but reading improves writing and writing improves reading, we work on both.
• You will see progess! And progress always increases confidence!

Lessons include:  

• Strategies to read and spell multi syllable words
• Writing at the word level, sentence level, paragraph level, and often multi paragraph level
• Reading books my students choose
• Noticing patterns (different spellings of the same sound, different sounds represented by the same spelling, prefixes, suffixes, etc.)

I use Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction(EBLI) and ThinkSRSD. I look forward to hearing from you and discussing whether I might be a good fit for you or your child.
