Behind the Scenes at the Clinic
A Lakehead University Graduate in HBOR and Concurrent Ed. I/S, a Master Reading Specialist in the Remediation Plus system, and an outdoor facilitator who speaks 3 languages, Julia Postigo-Rombola has accomplished many things in her life. After overcoming her challenges as a young person with reading (Dyslexia), writing (Dysgraphia), and attention (ADHD), Julia continued with a post-secondary education and her pursuits of being a teacher. When asked why she became a teacher she answered, "A major motivating factor was to help children who fell through the cracks, like I did."
"As a parent, it is a joy to see Aspen growing and learning - in developing her hard skills of reading and writing, but even more so in her determination and growing inner confidence. That she can climb (she is climbing!) what seemed like an insurmountable mountain to her a year ago. As a parent, it is also a joy to see such excellent teaching in action! Both Aspen and Saskia are thriving with your guidance, and I am profoundly grateful for your remarkable skill and dedication. The girls look forward to working with you every week and then eagerly putting new sounds and patterns together in the meantime. Thank you. And onwards we go!”
