About Kim
Hello! My name is Kim, and I am a California credentialed Special Education teacher with over 25 years of experience helping students become successful, confident learners. Throughout my career, I have specialized in reading intervention, literacy development, and supporting students with diverse learning needs.
I am trained in the Sonday System and have experience with research-based reading interventions, including Lindamood-Bell strategies. As a reading interventionist, I have helped struggling readers make significant gains in phonics, fluency, comprehension, and overall academic confidence. I am skilled at breaking complex concepts into manageable steps and creating lessons that are engaging, supportive, and effective.
Parents appreciate my patience, professionalism, and ability to build strong relationships with students. I believe that learning should be both challenging and encouraging, and I work hard to ensure every student feels successful. Whether your child needs targeted reading intervention, support with academic skills, or enrichment to reach their full potential, I provide individualized instruction designed to meet their specific needs and goals.
I am committed to helping students grow not only as learners but also as confident individuals who believe in their ability to succeed.

My approach to tutoring is personalized, engaging, and built around each student's unique learning needs. I believe that every child can become a confident learner when instruction is tailored to their strengths and learning style. I use research-based teaching methods, explicit instruction, guided practice, and positive reinforcement to help students build skills while developing confidence and independence.
A typical lesson follows a structured six-step approach designed to build strong reading and spelling skills. We begin by reviewing letter sounds, followed by spelling sounds from dictation. Students then practice reading words, move into a multisensory "touch spelling" activity, learn and apply a new sound pattern or phonics concept, and finish by reading aloud to strengthen fluency and comprehension. Throughout each lesson, I carefully monitor student progress and adjust instruction as needed to ensure students are both successful and appropriately challenged.
What sets me apart is my extensive experience as a credentialed Special Education teacher and reading interventionist. I am trained in the Sonday System and Lindamood-Bell methodologies, both of which are research-based approaches to literacy instruction. I specialize in helping struggling readers, students with learning differences, and children who need additional support to reach grade-level expectations. My lessons are structured, encouraging, and designed to help students experience success.
My tutoring services are ideal for elementary and middle school students, including those who need support in reading, phonics, fluency, and spelling. I also work effectively with students who have ADHD, dyslexia, autism, learning disabilities, or other special learning needs. Whether a student needs remediation, enrichment, or targeted intervention, I create individualized lessons that help them achieve meaningful growth and lasting success.

I met Kim when I was searching for a tutor for my son during 1st grade. When COVID hit, the decision was made to have my son repeat 1st grade. I searched the internet for tutors, interviewed several candidates, and even had trial sessions with a few. Unfortunately, none of them were the right fit for my son.
When Kim met with my son, he instantly connected with her. While I won't say he loved going to tutoring, he built a strong relationship with Kim, and she has consistently kept him on track. My son has shown significant progress in his reading since he began attending Kim's tutoring sessions. He is now entering 6th grade.
I highly recommend Kim for reading tutoring. Not only does her program work—your child will see real progress in reading—but she also builds strong, positive relationships with her students during these sessions.
I highly recommend Ms. Kim as an exceptional reading tutor. She has worked with my son, who has dyslexia, throughout his third-grade year, and the progress he has made has been remarkable. His reading scores improved dramatically, and he is no longer considered in urgent need of intervention.
Ms. Kim is knowledgeable, patient, and skilled at adapting instruction to meet her students’ individual needs. Her virtual tutoring sessions are engaging and effective, and she is always accessible for questions or consultation outside of scheduled lessons.
She has become a critical part of my son’s support system, and I am incredibly grateful for the confidence and academic growth she has helped him achieve. I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Kim to any family seeking a dedicated and highly effective reading tutor.View more recommendations
