KNOWLEDGEABLE AND COMPASSIONATE

My 15 year old grand daughter has a reading disability diagnosed in second grade, for which a systematic, structured, phonics based approach to remediation was required. She has been working with Dr. Wieland for approximately 2 1/2 years using the Wilson Reading system to develop decoding skills and vocabulary, content and contextual exercises to improve her fluency and overall reading abilities. This type of specific targeted one to one approach to her reading disability was not available to her in school. She has made significant progress thorough her work with Dr. Wieland improving her reading ability and in the ability to achieve at grade level in content areas. Dr. Wieland is a knowledgeable and compassionate educator and makes the tutoring experience a positive one. I am also familiar with Dr. Wieland as a volunteered as a tutor through Literacy Volunteers of Cattaraugus County and she brings the same talents and dedication to working with adults with literacy issues. Her experience and knowledge of the dynamics of reading instruction are invaluable to struggling learners. Having spent 40 years in the literacy and education professions I would highly recommend Dr. Wieland as both a tutor and learning coach.

Public comment about Vocabulary Building with Latin and Greek Roots and Affixes, Level 2 on Outschool:

By the way, as I had mentioned before, [my son] is dyslexic, and thus has some difficulty with written work. I signed him up for the 2nd part of this class because he told me I had to. He told me that so many more words make sense to him now because he can see how they add up. He thinks more mathematically so these classes have put pieces together for him that he was unable to connect before. T… Read more

Public review of Vocabulary Building with Latin and Greek Roots and Affixes series on Outschool:

A wonderful course. Excellent in all aspects. My daughter loved it, the children are offered superb opportunities for participation and for their own research. Invaluable. The children are so lucky to have access to this kind of etymological tuition and insight early in life. Very highly recommended. A whole new perspective on the English language for my daughter, adults around her remark on her voca… Read more

Review of Vocabulary Building with Latin and Greek Roots and Affixes, Level 2: My son is a reluctant reader/language arts student who has gained confidence when seeing unfamiliar words, and learned a lot about how these root words are constructed in English.
