About Carol M.
Hello. My name is Carol. I have been teaching professionally for over 15 years. I provide researched, data driven reading interventions, particularly for struggling readers and ESL students. My focus areas are; sound/letter relationships for ESL, comprehension for ESL, vocabulary and fluency. I use a proven method of teaching which I adapt to the learner's needs. I love teaching! I love teaching reading especially. Nothing gives me greater joy than see struggling readers soar to the top of their class. I trained and in South Africa as a special ed teacher and then relocated to the USA where I continued my studies in reading instruction.
I truly believe that children don't care how much we know, until they know how much we care.

Experience
Teacher/Tutor
Jan, 2012 - PresentThe Butterfly Readers
I founded The Butterfly Readers in 2012, when a distraught mother called me from South Africa. Her son- then 10 years old had failed the 4th grade for the 2nd time. I started by assessing the child's fluency and found that he was reading at K-level. After 6 months of solid 2 hour interventions daily, this young man aced every test at school and by the end of the South African school year, he received the award for the most improved student in the school.
