Hello!  My name is Christine Martinez.  I have been a certified educator since 2002 and began my teaching career in second grade.  I fell in love with phonics.  I later became a certified Master Reading Teacher in 2007.  I received my Masters in Reading from the University of Houston- Clear Lake in 2010.  In 2022, I received my Educational Diagnostician certification from Lamar University.  I currently hold 8 teaching certifications and am currently working as an educational diagnostician at an elementary campus.   I work with students from all over the United States when tutoring one-on-one with zoom.  Please reach out to schedule a free consultation and see if I can help your child become a confident reader.

What I teach

I teach early literacy and beyond.  My area of expertise is teaching beginning readers (K-3). 

I do work with older kids that are reading below level and need to build a stronger foundation.
