My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I have an Arizona teaching certificate as a special educator with a reading endorsement which recognizes my special skill in teaching reading. I spent 4 years teaching dyslexic students in a resource room setting in a private school in New York before establishing a new resource room program in a private school in Indianapolis. I led and taught that program for 5 years, successfully teaching many students with a wide variety of dyslexic symptoms. Since then I have continued to research new methods and have a range of teaching tools from which I select the ones most appropriate for your individual needs.

I pinpoint the specific skills that are challenging for my student and then use innovative and engaging methods to help them master those skills. I always aim to leave my students comfortable and confident in the subjects I teach them.
I have taught Special Education for over 20 years in a wide variety of settings. I have tutored about 100 students in a wide variety of subjects, using my deep knowledge and understanding of how we humans learn and retain information and skills. I am friendly and approachable, quickly establishing a positive rapport with my students that enables me to demand excellence with a willing response.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Graduate student in Special Education, I have learned that there are many different ways to approach the English language. I have extensive experience in writing papers and the rules of the English language. I proof read many papers for friends and co workers. I have tutored many of my friends and their friends in English and writing papers. I also enjoy writing and teaching others, because I also learn from every experience that I have had with others.
I have a passion for education. I believe that children can learn without even knowing it! Children love to play games and I make teaching like a game for them, so they have a great time and they are learning. There is substantial information that suggests that children retain knowledge if they thoroughly understand it and if they are having fun learning it. I haven't met to many children that don't remember rules and the dire ... read more

With my background in the field of education, I have skills that I believe you will find helpful to you and your clients. My strongest asset is my foundational gift, which is the breakdown and sharing of information with my peers and clients, and also helping them to retrieve that information fluently enough to present it to others. I built my skill levels around my foundational gift by taking courses and workshops pertaining to computers, peer advising, peer educating, communication skills, tutoring skills, reading skills, study skills, and student/community leadership. I also have access to a wide variety of community resources to help my peers and clients overcome some of the hurdles they encounter while striving towards their individual goals and dreams. All this information has given me many tools that prove useful to the student and community population at large.

A Little Bit About Me...

Because I had such a hard time learning and focusing in a regimented, institutional-type learning setting in school, and yet was a brilliant child, I teach extremely well in a relational more relaxed approach. Rather than "shove information down throats" I am interested in each individual, and to get to know their personality and learning style. I have found that when there is relationship and trust between the mentor and the student, not only does the student learn the information more effectively, but as the mentor, I am able to teach and speak more clearly. Rather than lecturing or preaching at them about what I think life should be like for them, I take them hiking, out to eat, to movies etc.
I have always had a heart to help others become the best that they can be. For the last 2 1/2 years, I have been taking in troubled teens into my home and being directly involved in coachi ... read more

I have been teaching and tutoring students for over 10 years. I teach students up to grade 12. I have been working in Canada as a tutor and worked with dyslexic students as well. I taught math and excelled myself with a high gpa up to grade 12.
I always try to ask the student what they think they are weak in. Always try to change the teaching method so that the student does not fall in a routine every session. They sometimes decide on doing, for example, in math, inventing their own equation and participating in their own learning.
