About Megan
I am highly effective at teaching the foundational reading skills that support long-term literacy success, including phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding, fluency, and early comprehension. I meet students where they are and help them grow with intentional, research-based instruction. It’s so important students are able to read and write.
