I am the founder, CEO, and lead tutor at Juniper Street Tutoring, LLC, specializing in dyslexia and reading intervention. I have a BA in English and ELA teaching endorsement form UW Seattle. I’ve been teaching for 13 years, with the past five focused on working with students with dyslexia while JST continues to support all subjects.
Currently, I am completing my certification in the Wilson Reading System, a proven, multisensory approach to reading intervention that I have already been implementing for five years. I believe that every student’s learning journey is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual strengths and challenges. By building meaningful connections and tailoring instruction to their needs, I help students develop the skills and confidence to thrive academically and beyond.
My approach is structured, logical, and multisensory, but just as important, it’s personalized. No single method works for every student, which is why I focus on understanding how each student thinks and learns. My goal is not just to help students catch up but to equip them with the tools they need to become independent learners.
As JST continues to grow, we remain committed to high-quality, individualized instruction. We are proud to be expanding our reach, including beginning work with a local school district, while maintaining the personal, student-centered approach that sets us apart.

When I am not teaching or working behind the scenes running all JST operations, I am baking, figure skating, spending time with my cats, or out fishing and camping with my husband.

My name is Noah, and I’m a born and raised Washingtonian. I studied philosophy, economics, and political science as an undergrad at Western Washington University, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in Philosophy with a focus on Logic. I’m also currently working on my Masters in Information Technology.
My work as a tutor in the Americorps program has helped me to understand multiple perspectives of students across the country. I’ve worked in many different types of school environments, and have learned how students from different facets of life require different motivational methods and techniques in order to gain the full benefit of a directed learning approach.
Philosophy has been a guiding thread in both my education and work. It’s more than an academic interest—it's the framework I use in tutoring. The question of “why” comes up in every subject, especially math, and I find that’s where real understanding begins.
Motivation is at the heart of successful tutoring. Discovering what excites and drives each student has always been a passion of mine. Often, their interests and big questions about the world lead us to surprising and effective ways of learning.
I believe that teaching someone to solve a difficult problem starts with breaking it into smaller, manageable parts. I love helping students turn what feels like an impossible challenge into a series of engaging, solvable puzzles.
Hi, my name is Regine! I specialize in teaching the Wilson Reading System (WRS) and completed my training directly under Morgan and through Wilson. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and have a strong background in behavior analysis and program development. With over a decade of experience in behavioral health, special education, and therapeutic services, I bring a unique perspective to my teaching.
My approach emphasizes fostering independence, social-emotional growth, and skill development. I incorporate evidence-based techniques such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Discrete Trial Training (DTT), and Naturalistic Teaching to support student learning. Additionally, I integrate creativity and holistic strategies to make lessons engaging and meaningful.
Before joining JST, I worked extensively with children and individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities. During that time, I collaborated with educators, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and mental health professionals to provide comprehensive support.
I’m passionate about making a lasting impact in the lives of the individuals and families I work with, striving to empower my students with the skills and confidence they need to succeed. Currently, I am transitioning into speech-language pathology, aiming to combine my expertise in behavior analysis with communication sciences to further support individuals with reading, writing, speech, and language challenges.

Hi, I’m Emma! I earned my BAE in Elementary and Special Education (Preschool–12th) from Western Washington University—a school founded by and for teachers. I come from a family of educators, and I’ve always been passionate about creating inclusive learning environments where every student feels seen, supported, and encouraged to grow.
My approach is student-centered and relationship-based. I love getting to know each student’s interests and strengths, and I believe learning should feel meaningful and motivating. I want every student to feel confident in their abilities and curious about the world around them.
During my time as a student teacher, I worked closely with experienced educators and families to create individualized education plans (IEPs) and support neurodivergent students as well as those with a wide range of learning, behavioral, and developmental needs. I used positive behavior strategies to help students stay engaged, build self-regulation, and thrive in the classroom.
I use structured, research-backed methods and always tailor instruction to fit each learner. I focus on building independence through practice, feedback, and reflection—meeting students where they are and helping them develop tools they can use for life.
Hi, my name is Emma!
I teach both in-person and online. I can travel to you or a local library
I teach the Wilson Reading System to students with dyslexia. I also work with students across the K–8 range, including both students with learning differences and those in general education, supporting them in reading, writing, and math.
My teaching philosophy emphasizes supporting the whole child, fostering a learning environment where students feel seen, empowered, and inspired to take ownership of their education. I prioritize nurturing curiosity and encouraging critical thinking through hands-on, open-ended learning experiences. This approach not only drives academic growth but also cultivates confidence, problem-solving skills, and a lifelong love of learning.
With a strong background as a volunteer elementary art teacher, Girl Scout leader, and PTA Board Member, I have developed expertise in creating inclusive, adaptable lessons tailored to diverse student needs. These experiences solidified my belief in the transformative power of art, creativity, and advocacy in personal development. My transition from a 22-year career as a professional hairstylist and makeup artist to education reflects my commitment to mentorship and student success.
Currently, I serve as an OSPI-certified middle school special education paraeducator and Registered Behavior Technician, where I focus on supporting students' academic, social, and emotional development. I am also pursuing a degree in education with an emphasis on art therapy, aspiring to integrate creativity and therapeutic practices into my teaching. In all my roles, I am dedicated to creating inclusive, supportive environments where students can thrive and achieve their full potential.

When I’m not working, I enjoy orca watching from my paddleboard, exploring the weird and wonderful world of the macabre and paranormal, or adventuring with my kids. A big hockey fan, I bring the same energy and enthusiasm to my work as I do to cheering on the Everett Silvertips, whether at the rink or from home.
