What I do

Rebel Minds Learning

HI! My name is Ashton.

I am the founder of Rebel Minds Learning. I am originally from the United States, but have been living and teaching abroad in Latin America for over 8 years now. My educational background includes a bachelors degree in K-12 special education and a masters degree in educational psychology. I have nearly a decade of special and general education teaching experience and am bilingual in Spanish and English.
I hold initial certification and ongoing training under a mentor from the Orton Gillingham Academy to deliver interventions using the Orton Gillingham Method. But beyond my qualifications I am a curiosity driven learner, a dog lover, adventure seeker, and all around advocate for my fellow rebel learners out there!

What folks are saying about Rebel Minds Learning

A Deep Understanding

Ms. Ashton demonstrated a deep understanding of our daughters needs, she  went above and beyond to ensure her success, her ability to connect with our daughter on a personal level and provide the tailored support was truly commendable. She is patient, empathetic, and always willing to go the extra mile to help our daughter overcome her challenges, always with a smile on her face :)

I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Ashton !!

Methodical and Consistent

When in-person school resumed in 2021 after the pandemic, our daughter (8 years old at the time) was noticeably struggling with reading and we had the opportunity to sign her up for additional reading help with Ms. Ashton. After just a few weeks, our daughter was advancing leaps and bounds, and best of all she looked forward to the time she could spend with Ms. Ashton. Her demeanor with my daughter was caring and patient, she was methodical and consistent in her Orton Gillingham approach, and she was passionate about helping her master the fundamentals of reading. Now my daughter is in the 4th grade and is an avid reader of chapter books which couldn’t make me happier.  I can’t recommend Ms. Ashton enough!
