Certified Wilson Reading Tutor

MS The New School University • BA University of Chicago
4+ Years Tutoring

The Wilson Reading System's structured, multisensory approach to decoding requires a tutor who genuinely understands how English phonology and morphology work together. Candice's University of Chicago English degree gave her deep knowledge of the language's structure, and her experience in reading intervention settings means she knows how to move through Wilson's syllable types and word-attack strategies at a pace that builds real confidence. She keeps sessions systematic but never robotic.

Hello! I'm a reading intervention specialist with over 15 years of experience helping struggling readers build stronger skills and confidence. I use an Orton-Gillinghaminspired, structured literacy that is explicit, systematic, multisensory, and tailored to each learner. Sessions may include phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding, spelling, fluency, comprehension, and writing based on individual needs. My goal is to strengthen the foundational literacy skills that make reading easier.

Heejin has been very patient with me. I work a full time job sometimes even on the weekends. It has been a slow process with my Korean classes, but Heejin has been wonderful and patient.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Wilson Reading System is a structured literacy program designed to teach reading and spelling through explicit, systematic phonics instruction. It focuses on decoding skills by breaking down words into their sound components, making it especially effective for students who struggle with traditional reading approaches. Tutors using this method provide step-by-step guidance to help students build confidence and fluency in reading.

Wilson Reading is particularly beneficial for students with dyslexia, reading delays, or those who haven't responded well to conventional reading instruction. It's also helpful for students who need to catch up on foundational phonics skills or want to strengthen their decoding abilities. The systematic approach works well for learners who benefit from explicit, structured instruction with clear progression.

Your first session typically includes an assessment of your child's current reading level, phonics knowledge, and specific challenges. The tutor will explain how the Wilson Reading System works and create a personalized plan based on your student's needs and learning pace. This foundation helps ensure that subsequent sessions build skills in the right sequence for maximum progress.

Many students begin showing measurable progress within 4-8 weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline varies based on the severity of reading challenges and frequency of sessions. The structured nature of Wilson Reading means students often build confidence quickly as they master each phonics level. Most students benefit from ongoing tutoring to reinforce skills and advance through the program's progression.

We match you based on your student's specific needs, learning style, and schedule. Our tutors are experienced in helping Palm Bay students overcome reading challenges and can provide personalized instruction tailored to your child's pace.

Consistent practice between tutoring sessions is essential for reinforcing phonics skills and building automaticity in reading. Tutors typically provide homework assignments that extend learning beyond the session and help students apply new skills. Regular practice accelerates progress and helps students retain the systematic phonics strategies they're learning.

Wilson Reading stands out for its highly structured, phonetically-based approach that teaches the relationship between letters and sounds in a specific sequence. Unlike programs that rely heavily on sight words or context clues, Wilson Reading emphasizes explicit decoding skills from the ground up. This systematic method is backed by research on how struggling readers learn best and is particularly effective for students with dyslexia.

Expert Wilson Reading tutors should have formal training and certification in the Wilson Reading System, along with experience working with struggling readers. They understand the program's specific methodology and can adapt instruction to individual student needs. When connecting with tutors through Varsity Tutors, you can discuss their credentials and experience to ensure the right fit for your student.
