Carol Levin, President

“I have wanted to be a teacher since childhood and I regard teaching as my mission in life.”

Carol Levin was born in Waterbury, CT and graduated from Curry College in Milton, MA with a degree in Early Childhood Education. After completion of military service with the Air Force Judge Advocate General in Wichita Falls, the Levins moved to Katy. Carol taught at the New Hope Child Development Center, A Child’s Reflection and Yorkshire Academy, where she remained for fourteen years. She received specialized training in Alphabetic Phonics through the Neuhaus Center, reading and language programs through Scottish Rite, the Orton Society and EDMAR. She is a member of the International Dyslexia Society and the winner of the 2005 Grinspoon Steinhart Award.

When she opened Tutorials for Excellence®, in 1999, her program was quickly recognized as a leader in reading, language, math, and test preparation (including TAKS, SAT and ACT).

Carol has great success in helping children with dyslexia, learning disabilities and processing problems. Her enthusiasm, devotion and boundless energy, combined with her passion for learning, make her an ideal source of support and encouragement for her students.

Carol is active in her community, she is on the Board of Directors for Breath of Life, she is a member of MADD, International Dyslexia Association, Temple Sinai, and Rotary International.

Carol is married to Stuart “Stu” Levin, of Levin and Atwood, LLP. Their oldest son, Jason, his wife Stacey and their daughter Haley recently moved to Houston. In September of 2006, the Levin family suffered the tragic loss of their youngest son, Todd, to a drunken driver.
