My Story

I grew up just outside of Taos in the small town of Española, New Mexico. After receiving my degree in Cultural Anthropology from The University of New Mexico, I was awarded an internship at The Smithsonian Center For Folklife and Cultural Heritage in Washington, DC. It was my study of culture that piqued my interest in world travel. During the next four years I traveled to over eighteen countries and taught English while living in Spain, Thailand, and Indonesia.

When the COVID pandemic brought me back to the United States, I was inspired by the work of my mother (an occupational therapist) to begin specializing in teaching children with learning disabilities. Since January of 2021, I have been training in and using the Orton-Gillingham approach, the gold-standard of methods for teaching students who struggle with dyslexia, and am now certified at the associate level. I care deeply about my students, and strive everyday to help each student overcome their own personal challenges, and become more confident in and out of the classroom.

Satisfied Parents

"Eliza really enjoyed working with Jessica. In working with her each week, she surpassed her school literacy goal set for the year in just one semester. She is reading out loud more confidently, and we are no longer having battles over writing -- she now very much enjoys writing and learning cursive. We really appreciate how Jessica worked with us and Eliza to adjust her tutoring sessions to keep her engaged. Thank you!"

"Ms. Hasson impressed us from the very beginning by establishing rapport with my son and introducing the Orton-Gillingham curriculum in a nicely paced, engaging manner. She provided a thorough initial written evaluation and continues to provide periodic updates of my child's reading and writing progress."

Marvee W.

"Jessica was a really effective tutor for my daughter over the summer. She did a great job engaging my daughter and making learning fun. When my daughter went back to school in the fall her teachers were so impressed by the progress she had made over the summer, and indicated that because of the support from Jessica my daughter had no 'summer slide' and instead kept progressing."

Alicen K.

"After 15 months of tutoring with Jessica, my kid went from high Kindergarten reading level to catching up with Second Grade. Her games, rewards, and patience made tutoring fun for a very active child."
