Hello!

The Founder of Conscious Tutoring and main educator is Christina Lane, M.Ed.

Her undergraduate degree is from the University of Central Florida and her graduate degree is from Georgia State University. Christina has trained in the Orton Gillingham approach and at Columbia University as part of the Teacher’s College Reaching and Writing project.

Christina brings a variety of skills and diagnostic tools to the table when working with the students at Conscious Tutoring to develop curriculum, assessments and curriculum. Christina works with students that struggle with attention issues, motivation, reading, writing issues and dyslexia. However, she also provides enrichment for students that are struggling to find challenge in their school setting.

As a parent of three teenagers herself, Christina intimately understands the challenges of finding high-quality and individualized support for your children that is both time-bound and result-oriented. Christina is also a certified embodiment coach and she see adults for relationship based somatic coaching. These skills heavily influence all of the work developed at Conscious Tutoring.

In her free time Christina loves collecting records, writing and making pottery. Christina is committed to offering students Literacy support that they actually enjoy attending.

Below is a list of interventions and solutions Christina can provide based on experience and training:

  I design differentiated curriculum and enrichment strategies tailored to the unique needs of gifted students, helping them accelerate their learning and reach their full potential.

• ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages):
  I offer comprehensive language support, including curriculum modifications, targeted language interventions, and standardized assessments to ensure that English language learners achieve academic success.

• Dyslexia (Intermediate Level):
  Using evidence-based approaches such as the Orton-Gillingham method, I develop specialized literacy interventions that build strong foundational reading and writing skills for students with dyslexia.

• ADHD:
  I create individualized plans and strategies to support students with ADHD, enhancing focus, organization, and overall academic performance.

• Executive Functioning in Reading, Writing and Planning Work:
  Through small-group literacy interventions, goal setting, and self-monitoring techniques, I help students improve reading comprehension and build essential executive functioning skills.

  I provide targeted guidance on brainstorming, structuring, drafting, and revising application essays, ensuring students effectively communicate their unique stories and strengths.

  Why “Conscious Tutoring”?

Conscious is a Latin word whose original meaning was “knowing" or "aware.” Conscious learning means recognizing that personal meaning is the core of how we become inspired and connected to new ideas. Conscious teaching involves an educator having the skills and awareness to personalize the work to each student. Our core values of identity, fun, community, awareness and challenge help us to stay conscious and connected to each other and to everything we teach and learn. Our lessons are diverse, reflective and fun. Students connect outside of our programs in maker markets, live stream storytelling and in book clubs! Our pricing is transparent, our groups are small and we really care. We know families are busy and that’s why we try to stay flexible, often offering easy swaps to schedules as sports and life happens. Text or email to set up a zoom call. Let’s meet and see if this is a good fit!
