My name is Amber Muller and I work with students in grades K-5 who need extra help on their reading and math skills. I have certification with extensive practicum hours with the Dyslexia Institute of MN, which is an accredited plus training facility through the International Dyslexia Association and the Academy of Orton-Gillingham Practitioners & Educators. I also have Top Ten Tools and LETRS training which are extensive trainings accredited by the International Dyslexia Association. Currently, I am halfway through my masters degree in literacy and I am a member of many reading and math organizations including the Reading League and the International Dyslexia Association. I regularly participate in book studies, classes and workshops based on best practices in math and reading. I am a firm believer in multi-sensory learning and making learning FUN!!!! Thank you for allowing me to work with your child! I am so excited to share my passion with you all! If you any concerns about your child, please feel free to contact me!
