4.8 Writing to Improve Comprehension with Heather O'Donnell

In this episode, I'm joined by Heather O’Donnell for a conversation about writing skills that will help your kids and students improve their comprehension.

Heather O’Donnell MS.Ed and Ed.M began her career as a classroom teacher. Working in both special and general education classroom settings, she left the classroom in 2018 to open New Paltz Multisensory, an online and in-person tutoring practice in New Paltz, NY. After identifying a need for private multisensory reading instruction in her community, the practice has grown to include a team of 13 tutors providing online and in-person multisensory reading, writing, and math instruction to students in over 10 states. 

Heather uses the Orton-Gillingham approach to diagnostically provide explicit instruction so that kids learn to love learning again! 

You can connect with Heather by visiting her website, New Paltz Multisensory, or by finding her on Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest.
