About Maryann
After years of classroom experience at the early childhood level, I became a reading specialist. I then moved to the college level teaching Education students (pre-service teachers) before voluntarily leaving that position to serve as a Literacy Consultant for an international publishing company. In that professional development role, I mentored reading teachers in systems across the country including the states of NJ, FL, MA, and IN. Now fully retired, I have tutored independently since 2014. I presently serve students in-person at the local library as well as online. I earned a BA degree in Elementary Education, MA degree in Elementary Reading, and Ph.D. degree in Educational Studies.

I believe that assessment informs instruction. I assess in five areas including sight words, phonics, comprehension and fluency and writing. I then design a learning plan based on the results of those assessments. Thus, I tailor my teaching and pinpoint specific areas of weakness. Progress is quick and steady because I waste no time teaching what a student already knows. My focus is on skills that are partially known, that is building on strengths and of course concentrating on what is unknown.
I'm most able to assist students in kindergarten through grade three who are reading below grade level. My online lessons are engaging and child-centered as I use several manipulatives. My intention is that students both advance in reading ability and fall in love with books.

Highly Recommended: An Exceptional, Expert Literacy Specialist
Dr. Maryann is an extraordinary reading specialist who has worked with my son for the last three years. Her impact on his academic growth has been incredible, helping him bump up several reading levels during their time together. She is a true expert in her field. She doesn't just teach literacy to young children; she actually trains other reading teachers, which speaks volumes about her depth of knowledge and skill. Her methods are highly effective, engaging, and tailored perfectly to a child's needs. If you are looking for a top-tier literacy educator who delivers real results and builds true reading confidence, I cannot recommend Dr. Maryann highly enough!Maryann is truly a Super Tutor! She has been my daughter’s reading tutor, and I am incredibly grateful for the patience, dedication, and individualized attention she brings to every session.
What I appreciate most about Maryann’s teaching methods is her ability to meet my daughter where she is academically, identify the areas where she needs additional support, and teach in a way that builds both her reading skills and her confidence.
One experience that truly demonstrates Maryann’s impact occurred when my daughter was without a classroom teacher for approximately six months due to teacher shortages. Unfortunately, this significantly affected her learning and academic progress. During that time, Maryann provided the consistency, encouragement, and focused instruction my daughter needed. With Maryann’s support, she was able to overcome those learning gaps and ultimately excel on her state exams.
I would highly recommend Maryann to parents looking for a knowledgeable, patient, dependable, and caring tutor who is genuinely invested in helping their child succeed. She has made a meaningful difference in my daughter’s education, and I am extremely thankful for her!Maryann is an exceptional tutor, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She worked with my son when he was in third grade and played an important role in helping him prepare for and successfully pass his reading exams last year. Her support made a real difference in both his reading skills and his confidence.
Maryann is wonderful with children. She is kind, encouraging, dependable, and incredibly patient. She takes the time to explain things in a way that children can understand and never makes them feel rushed or discouraged. My son felt comfortable working with her and always received the attention and support he needed.
We are extremely grateful for everything Maryann did for our family. She is knowledgeable, caring, and truly dedicated to helping her students succeed. I would recommend her 100% to any parent looking for an excellent tutor who genuinely cares about children and their education.
