Every child deserves to understand why reading feels difficult. Every family deserves a clear plan.
That's why we combined expertise in speech-language pathology, education, and reading science to create a collaborative model that identifies the root cause of literacy challenges and delivers expert intervention.
Sarah specializes in helping children become confident readers through evidence-informed literacy instruction. Her doctoral research focused on language and literacy development, and she brings more than fifteen years of classroom experience to every intervention plan. Sarah believes literacy grows through explicit instruction, meaningful engagement, and joyful learning experiences that build both skill and confidence.
Carly specializes in identifying the language foundations that support reading and writing success. Her expertise allows her to identify why children struggle with literacy and develop individualized intervention plans grounded in the Science of Reading. She is passionate about helping families understand their child's learning profile while equipping educators with practical, evidence-informed strategies that create lasting change.

Most literacy programs are designed by either educators or clinicians.
We believe children benefit from both.
Sarah brings expertise in curriculum, literacy instruction, and classroom practice.
Carly brings expertise in oral language, speech-language development, and the cognitive foundations of reading.
Together, we identify why children struggle and design intervention that targets the skills they need most.

At The Literacy Collective, we promise to do more than provide tutoring—we help families understand why their child is struggling with reading and writing.
Every child begins with a comprehensive literacy assessment designed to identify their unique strengths and areas for growth. If intervention is recommended, we develop an individualized plan and match your child with a highly trained teacher who delivers explicit, systematic instruction in your home.
Our promise is simple: honest answers, evidence-informed instruction, and individualized support that helps children become confident readers and writers.

Most tutoring focuses on completing homework or preparing for the next test. We focus on identifying the underlying skills that help children become stronger readers and writers for life.
Every intervention plan is developed by Carly and Sarah following a comprehensive literacy assessment. Your child is then matched with a highly trained teacher who delivers individualized, evidence-informed instruction in your home while we continue to monitor progress and adjust goals along the way.
Because lasting progress comes from teaching the right skills, in the right sequence, with the right support.
