Tutor/Speaker Info:
Dora Cheung E.C.E., M. Educ. Admin., & OG Tutor
I have over 20 years of teaching experiences in various settings. I started teaching in the preschool setting as an Early Childhood Educator. During these 5 years in the E.C.E. field my experience varied from managing lunch programs, developing themed curriculum and working with special needs children. In 2000, I relocated to Hong Kong and worked as a teacher adviser for the Hong Kong Early Childhood Education Council. Here I've facilitated many workshops to over 300 teachers and principals promoting the Shared Book Approach. After returning back to Vancouver, B.C in 2001, I was inspired to become a principal. After completing the Masters of Educational Administration, I married and continue to teach and tutor young children in English and Math. In 2009, I pursued my Orton Gillingham Tutor training and started my own private practice. Currently I am balancing being a busy mom to three school aged boys, working as an OG tutor and facilitating webinars. I am passionate about providing the best learning environment to young children and an advocate for multi-sensory learning.
