Northwest Literacy Foundations
About Me
My name is Karen Chase, MS. I am a retired special education teacher with over 30 years of experience and a deep commitment to helping children become confident, capable readers. After years of supporting diverse learners in the classroom, I now focus on providing individualized, evidence-based reading intervention for elementary students who benefit from structured, explicit instruction. My approach is grounded in the science of reading and shaped by decades of experience working with students who need targeted, compassionate support. I believe every child deserves to feel successful, and I work to create a calm, encouraging environment where progress feels achievable and meaningful. I tailor instruction to each learner's needs, helping students build strong foundational skills in phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency, vocabulary
