A Little Bit About Me...

I'm a professional tutor with more than 4 years of experience. I offer one-on-one and group tutoring in English and Math, standardized tests - ASVAB, TOEFL, IELTS, and more! I have Masters of Laws degree, MA in Translation and Interpretation and M.S. in Medical Sciences Program. I'm a patient, reliable and supportive teacher, and have helped students of all ages, academic backgrounds and knowledge levels achieve their goals. My teacher philosophy is based on identifying each student's needs and designing a personalized study plan that best fits the student's own learning style, interests and objectives.
I hear over and over again that "I'm not a good test-taker" from students but strong test-takers are not born that way! Instead, they develop good test-taking skills and habits over time. You, too, can study and master the test-taking skills to excel on any test. I'd like to enh ... read more

Helping your child become a successful reader is my passion!

There is nothing more rewarding to me than helping children learn to read. The method I use is tried and true and I have many successful students who have gone on to be very strong readers.Reading is the basis of all learning, therefore helping a young child learn to read is essential for future success.The Orton gillingham method is very specific and teaches all the basics of phonics and uses a unique audio visual and kinetic approach
I am a former special ed teacher with a special certification in teaching dyslexicsI have been retired for a number of years.I live in North Kingstown, Rhode Island . I have been tutoring for the past 10 years, And it is truly my joy to watch students succeed with this method I use.I Specialize in the Orton gillingham method of teaching phonics and reading..I tutor in person and online as well. I have many references available at your request.
