Michelle Cohen

Welcome to the Lindenwold High School Reading Intervention Program!

My name is Michelle Cohen, and I am thrilled to be the new Reading Specialist here at Lindenwold. I believe that strong reading skills are the foundation for success in every class and in life beyond high school. My goal is to work with students to make reading less of a challenge and more of a strength.

What I Do

As the Reading Specialist, my job is to support students who may be struggling with reading. This isn't just about reading books faster; it's about building the skills they need to understand complex texts, succeed on tests, and feel confident in their classes. Whether a student needs help with foundational skills, comprehension, vocabulary, or fluency, I can work with them to create a personalized plan that helps them reach their goals.

About Me

This is my 13th year teaching high school students, and I am certified in English, Reading, Special Education, and as a Reading Specialist. My passion is helping older students learn the foundations of reading before they leave high school. 

When I'm not teaching, I hike with my border collie, Luna, and I love travelling around the world while taking photographs of interesting landscapes.
