Providing Positive Strategies for Success!

I believe in adapting my teaching style based on individual learning styles. I use a multi-sensory approach along with positive reinforcement. Each child I work with is unique and in order to be successful it is imperative to build a rapport with the child and the family.
I have taught in both the public and private school sectors. I have been teaching Special Education since 1999. I owned a learning center for children on the Autism spectrum as well as own my own tutoring business~Special Effects Tutoring. I provide tutoring, advocacy, and professional development in the Collin County area of Texas. I have participated in professional development and continue to work with children and families, along with support specialists, to provide a comprehensive and collaborative service.

A Little Bit About Me...

Student centered and dialogue.
I have taught algebra, geometry, ESL, English Grammar, and Arabic language for over nine years. Most of my teachings have been one-on-one where I use standard textbooks, secondary sources, and additional materials to reinforce classroom/online learning. I provide plenty of time for Q&A session. I use various teaching methods; for the most part, this include student centered learning. I also focus on differentiation learning, where I attempt to cater to each student's learning needs.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching when there is a bit of a challenge getting the student to understand the concept. As I have mentioned, I can use different styles to help the student get the concept. I have a great deal of patience and believe that everyone can learn. I enjoy the way someone looks after they have understood and mastered an idea.
I tutored all subjects - especially in Math all through High School. I also tutored in college. I have strong skills in Math - all levels - but I especially enjoy algebra. I have two children and I basically taught my oldest son math, since he was a different kind of learner than the way they teach at school. He is a very kinesthetic type learner and needs to see, feel and touch to understand the concepts - so I used a lot of tools to help him. I can tutor math and science exceptionally well and other subjects for the younger levels.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy a very interactive learning approach. I tend to use hands on and visual learning techniques. I am patient and children are my joy to work with. It does not matter how long it takes one to learn, everyone is capable. I desire to set up a fun and disciplined learning environment for the students best success.
During the attainment of my undergraduate degree, I conducted research under my professor, Dr. Greg Powell. Throughout the research, I gathered many skills one being creative in learning, as well as, presenting new material and teaching it to fellow peers and professors. I have also worked as a teacher’s assistant, running a chemistry lab of about - five students.

More About This Tutor...

As an experienced Plano ISD teacher I have had the opportunity to provide students with effective instruction to meet their individual needs. I have taught all subjects in third grade for nine years. For the past five years I have also been teaching the advanced math class. I specialize in TAKS test preparation, Reading, Math, and Writing.
I believe that children learn best when they are having fun. My goal as an educator is to instill a love of learning in students. If a child can take ownership of his or her learning, they will reach a greater level of comprehension and retain what they have learned.
