Kristin Haagensen, Educational Therapist
Educational Therapy & Literacy Support
When bright students struggle with reading, writing, or learning confidence, tutoring is often not enough.
Educational therapy addresses the underlying learning processes that impact long-term success.
With over 27 years of experience in special education and literacy intervention, I provide individualized, evidence-based educational therapy that helps students become more capable, confident, and independent learners.
-
Struggling with reading and writing despite effort?

Difficulty with underlying learning processes, not just homework?

Need structured, evidence-based support that goes deeper than tutoring?

Do you need help navigating school systems of support? With IB? Accommodations?
Global Leader in Educational Therapy, and Student Well-being.
My Mission
To reduce school stress for students & families by providing quality, individualized interventions.
My Philosophy
I believe every student can make progress and reach their goals regardless of their starting point. By focusing on individual needs and strengths, all students will move forward. Celebrating small successes along the way is an important component in the learning process.

“ Kristin worked with our son for two years and I can’t say anything but good words about her. She’s a fantastic Learning Support teacher who truly cares about students' needs. She was always very supportive, made our son enjoy reading books and helped him increase tremendously his learning abilities. It led him to say that Learning Support was his favorite subject at school! Also, very important, Kristin really boosted our son's self-confidence and built up his self-esteem. She made a huge difference on his well-being and I am extremely grateful for her precious help.”
