Literacy with Laura Leigh

Hello! I'm Laura.

Hello there! I’m a passionate reading therapist with almost two decades of experience dedicated to helping struggling readers. As a homeschool mom, my mission is to make a positive impact on students who face challenges in reading.

My journey began in the public school system, where I served as a special educator and reading specialist. Throughout the years, I’ve honed my expertise by completing training in Basic Language Skills, a comprehensive literacy program designed for students with dyslexia and similar learning differences. Additionally, I hold a master’s degree in reading and have achieved National Board Certification in Early and Middle Childhood Literacy: Reading-Language Arts.

For the past seven years, I’ve been working closely with families, students, and educators, providing personalized, explicit instruction to help reluctant readers blossom into confident and successful ones.

Beyond my one-on-one work, I also develop literacy resources that offer support to struggling readers in various settings, be it the regular classroom, intervention programs, special education, private therapy sessions or for homeschooling families.

Join me on this reading adventure as we unlock the full potential of every student, one page at a time!
