I joined Lindsey's Facebook group for private online elementary tutors who use the Science of Reading, and soon after, joined an online meeting she conducted. Lindsey created the group to provide a support system and collaboration among people , in order that more children are given good education. I was so impressed with her selfless motivation. When Lindsey had a client she was no longer able to serve, she referred the family to me and I began tutoring both children. To ensure a smooth transition, she shared their data, plans, and goals (with the parent's permission). This was so helpful, I wanted to learn more from Lindsey. When she offered to consult with me as a mentor, I was thrilled and scheduled a series of meetings right away. It's very gratifying to work with Lindsey. She is a highly skilled tutor and business owner, kind and conscientious. Even though I have years of education and teaching experience, Lindsey is a role model to me. She has created a niche for herself in this growing field, and has advanced training in science-driven instruction. She has improved my instructional techniques, increased my resources, and inspired me to approach my job in new ways. Lindsey is always professional, and yet our meetings often feel like I'm talking with a friend who genuinely wants me to succeed. The quality of my tutoring service has been enhanced, refined, and generally improved from Lindsey's mentorship. I have a deeper understanding of how to apply the science of reading, and the resources I use have more than doubled. Also with her help, I have developed a tutoring agreement that I use with my customers, and refined my policies regarding payment management and missed sessions. She shared her successful strategies as well as her mistakes, so that my business would be more successful. Since working with Lindsey as a consultant, I have filled all my tutoring slots and I'm striving in my career. I highly recommend Lindsey to anyone who is tutoring reading, teaching small groups, thinking about tutoring, starting their business, or working for a tutoring business.
