How HandinHand Has Grown


📖 HandinHand Reading Services began with my love of helping struggling readers. For 20 years, I have worked with students who learn in different ways. I have seen many bright, capable students struggle—not because they can't learn, but because they need to be taught in a way that works for them.


🌱 Over time, I learned that reading was only part of the picture. Many students also needed help with writing, executive f...

Ann provides excellent tutoring services utilizing research-based practices. It has been amazing to watch my child grow in her reading ability while relationally connecting to Ann during their sessions together. I receive frequent feedback on performance and ideas for reading activities outside of tutoring time. The growth during the time spent together is evident and is an outcome of Ann's ability to target instruction that meets my child's needs.

My daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia in 8th grade. As you can imagine, we felt like we had missed out on several years that she could've been receiving help, and we were a little hopeless that tutoring would benefit her at all at this point. We had tried so many tutors with her before. Ann has been the game-changer for my child! For the first time, my teenager is excited about reading! Her confidence is improving right before our eyes, and it's all because of the individualized time and attention Ann has given to her. We are forever grateful for Ann's help!

We cannot thank Ms. Ann enough for the incredible impact she has had on our son's reading abilities. When he was in public school, we were told he would likely always struggle with reading and writing. However, after just a few months of tutoring with Ms. Ann, focusing on phonics, vocabulary, and reading comprehension, our son is now reading independently!

Ms. Ann has a gift for finding the right approach for each student. She figured out how to break down reading concepts in a way our son could understand and make progress. Her patience and encouragement gave him the confidence he needed to believe in himself. He went from dreadfully struggling with even simple words to enthusiastically picking up books on his own.

Our son has gained so much from his sessions with Ms. Ann - not just academically, but a real love of learning. She has unlocked his potential in a way we didn't think was possible. We credit his newfound confidence and abilities to her dedication and commitment as a tutor. Ms. Ann has truly helped our son achieve what we were told he would not be able to do. We cannot recommend her highly enough!
