Kimberly Marks, MaEd and Barton Specialist

Kimberley Marks is a dedicated educator with a Master's degree in Education and a multiple-subjects certification. Specializing in Orton-Gillingham, a highly effective approach for teaching students with dyslexia, Kimberley has honed her skills in providing individualized literacy instruction to help students excel in reading comprehension, phonics, and writing. With several years of hands-on experience in diverse teaching environments, she is committed to tailoring her teaching strategies to meet the unique needs of each student, ensuring both academic growth and emotional resilience.

Her expertise extends beyond traditional literacy instruction, with a deep focus on supporting students with learning differences, including dyslexia, ADHD, and other neurodiverse conditions. Through one-on-one tutoring sessions, Kimberley offers targeted support that empowers students to overcome academic challenges, build confidence, and develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they need for long-term success.

In addition to her work in literacy, Kimberley is a passionate advocate for social-emotional learning (SEL) and inclusive education. She recognizes the profound connection between emotional well-being and academic achievement, and thus integrates SEL principles into her teaching to help students develop self-awareness, emotional regulation, and interpersonal skills. By incorporating innovative, student-centered methodologies, she fosters a classroom environment where students not only grow academically but also feel valued, supported, and capable of achieving their goals.

Whether delivering lessons in-person or online, Kimberley works tirelessly to create an engaging and positive learning experience. Her approach is designed to help students feel empowered, motivated, and equipped with the tools they need to thrive in both their academic pursuits and personal growth. Her overarching goal is to ensure that every student, regardless of learning differences, is provided with the resources, support, and mindset to achieve academic excellence and lifelong success.
