ABOUT ME
Karla Kramer Dyslexia Tutor

 

ABOUT ME

 

Hello!  I am Karla Kramer, and I grew up the foothills of the coast range in the beautiful state of Oregon.

 

In addition to my work with children and adults with dyslexia, I am an avid gardener and I have professionally designed many landscapes throughout my life. 

I enjoy spending time in the out-of-doors...hiking, camping and sitting by a rushing river. 

 

I love drafty-old houses and enjoy repurposing second-hand treasures. I love to make and eat good food!

 

Once I began this tutoring journey I became aware through the NeuroLearning Assessment tool that I am moderately dyslexic ( then everything made sense!).

I can understand first-hand the challenges my students face.  I am one of their biggest cheerleaders from the start!

Prior to becoming a specialized dyslexia tutor, I worked as a reading interventionist for the Oregon public school system. 

 

After receiving training, I have tutored privately for the last 7 years using the  Barton Reading & Spelling System as my core curriculum. I have been providing literacy opportunities for the 1-in-5 students that have dyslexia and must have instruction in a different way.
