My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : professional development courses completed in reading comprehension (general) and reading comprehension (test taking skills classes).

I've either taught or tutored in some form or fashion for over 17yrs now. I've had ages 3yrs to 22yrs old covering all manner of subjects and hobbies. One of my most rewarding experience was with an 18 year old special needs 10th grader ready to drop out of school. We met 2-3x a week for 6mths. In that time he raised his GPA from 1.2 to 2.7. He completed his 10th grade year and went on to take and pass the G.E.D. the following year.
I would describe my teaching style as dynamic, creative student-centered

Passionate Elementary Education Tutor

I love teaching and I love to see the spark in a child's eye when they finally understand a subject they have struggled with! I am a certified special education instructional support aide for an elementary school in northwest Fort Worth. During the school year, I work in Resource and Content Mastery with special education students that are in general education classes but need additional instruction in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. I also provide additional assistance through Content Mastery to students in Science and Social Studies. I am currently pursuing a second Master's degree in Education with a specialization in Special Education as well as pursuing teacher certification through Texas Teachers. Although I work with all levels of students, my specialty is working with children with Autism and behavior issues.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Learning to understand what you read is the foundation of critical thinking. Learn to read for understanding, including how to read in between the lines!

I try to do some explication, and then have the student try some exercises or venture out on their own. In the cases of multiple sessions, I DO assign homefun (as opposed to homework), so that the student will have some experience when next we meet.
I am an experienced graphic and web designer. But in college I thought I was going to be either an English or History Professor, or an Attorney. That's why I studied lots of his History, English, and took the pre-law major Philosophy. I have several year of post-graduate classes as well. I started teaching Graphic Design in 2002, and brought into that Web Design, along with the skills that accompany them - HTML and CSS. I have even designed signs, and love it!

I truly care for children and helping them learn.

B.S. Elementary ed with math minor. Certified in PA. (moved and did not renew) After raising two sons, I entered the business world using my math and negotiation skills in the finance/AR-credit division. I recently relocated to Texas and began to substitute elementary grades 1-6. The past six months were dedicated as a compliance sub tutoring 5th grade students in math, reading, reading comprehension, vocabulary, spelling and test preperation.
I believe that a teacher who is dedicated and loves to teach will give rise to students who love to learn. The experience should be enjoyed by everyone and be exciting when something new has been learned. I like using different approaches. For example - using subject related games to make learning fun and interesting. Discipline and dedication to accomplish set goals for each subject are an integral part of this process.

I use the CHAMPPS program & Love & Logic method.
I am an Elementary Education teach in HEB ISD. My total number of years teaching is 12. I have taught and tutored 3rd - 6th grade math, science & language arts. I currently teach 4th grade math and science. I also privately tutored reading comprehension for 3rd - 5th graders. The last four students that I tutored progressed on their state test from failing to well over 80% passing rate. I believe every child can learn if they are inspired and believes that he or she is capable of achieving.

I am working toward a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a minor in Philosophy. I have achieved very high marks in college board English examinations and I am VERY proficient in all aspects of the English field. I have also played the French horn in band for the past 9 years and I know how to play the trumpet as well. I would feel comfortable teaching a beginner on either of those instruments.

To All Can Learn, If there's a Will there's a Way.

My teaching style varies depending on how I see the student picks up and retains material. Repetition, Hands-on activities, speaking, out loud thinking.
I have previously taught dance lessons, choreographed a select number of routines, and have helped with Resume techniques for job scouting and placement. I have a passion to teach and am undoubtedly sure to be able to teach and tutor anyone. Regardless of the age or skill level, I will adjust the lesson based on your performance at hand. I am fun to learn with and will help you meet above and beyond what you thought was achievable.
