Special Education is one of my top subjects! I hold a Master's degree in Special Education and am experienced as a K-5 special education teacher in all areas of language arts and math.

Building meaningful relationships with my students is my top priority. This helps me to personalize the learning experience. I take a multisensory approach to teaching. I like to make learning as interactive as possible for my students to ensure a high-level of engagement and maximum retention of new learning.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style initally involves getting to the know the person, what they are struggling with, why they think they may need a tutor, and anything they have tried in the past and what has and has not worked for them. I like to encorporate all aspects to assist with learning (visual aids, listening, and hands-on/practical). This may involve games, cartoons/movies (if tutoring Spanish), worksheeets. I also feel that goal-setting is important, and I think I would ask the tutee to set some individual/personal goals for themself, (i.e. amount of time studying or achieving certain fluency level).
I recently earned my M.A. in Counseling. I have extensive experience in working with individuals (children, adolescents, adults), from diverse backgrounds. I have earned two B.A. degrees, in Psychology and Spanish. I am very familiar with the academic and learning environment, as well ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Certified Dyslexia teacher, I teach Orton-Gillingham multisensory curriculum to students with dyslexia and other reading deficits. My one on one tutoring is designed to get to the root of the problem by building and reinforcing phonemic and grapheme awareness using sight, sound and touch. Being an elementary substitute teacher and certified dyslexia teacher I continue my professional development in my areas of expertise.
My teaching style is multisensory, utilizing sight, sound and touch. I'm very patient and I love teaching children. For me, the highlight of teaching is when a child suddenly gets that 'aha moment'; when the light bulb finally turns on and the child understands the concept. My goal is to make sure my students feel safe, important and intelligent while having fun learning.

Upon graduating with a BS in education, I went on to teach at the middle school level. I was a special education teacher, inclusion teacher, remedial math and history teacher. During the summers I also taught and tutored children who had autism and other special needs. After three years of teaching, I went on to teach adult basic education and GED classes, also while tutoring middle school algebra students. I have extensive training on teaching learners with learning disabilities, mental impairments, ADD, ADHD, autism, as well as elementary and middle school math and reading.
I love watching learners understand and succeed. As an instructor, I look at each student as an individual whose learning style is unique to them, and then I adapt my instruction to best fit their style. I love getting up and moving, playing games, and using creativity to bring understanding of a concept ... read more
