I graduated from East Texas State University in 1989 with a Bachelor of Science in Deaf Education and a minor in Speech Pathology.   I had the privilege of being able to homeschool my son and daughter throughout their education. Now that both are in college, I began pursuing further education to become a certified academic language therapist last summer.  My course of training is with Take Flight, a comprehensive, multi-sensory intervention for students with dyslexia tendencies, developed at Scottish Rite Hospital in Dallas. I have completed the first of two years of training through McKinney Christian Academy and I am looking to add 2-3 new students to my practice.  While I am still in training, my services will be at a reduced rate. Besides the advantage of the reduced rate, I also have access to the expertise of my instructors in answering any questions or concerns I haven’t yet encountered. I am excited to be able to offer my therapy services to homeschooling families in the area.  A specific diagnosis of dyslexia is not needed to begin the program. I would love to talk with you more about your unique situation and see if the Take Flight curriculum might be a good fit for your student.
