Elementary Reading is one of my top subjects! I am a certified Reading Specialist. I have 5 years teaching experience at the elementary level.

I have Masters degree in Reading and Literacy and I am a certified Reading Specialist. I currently teach preschool students who are deaf and hard of hearing at a school where I have cultivated a reputation for leadership and innovation. In addition to my preschool group, I also work one-on-one with a kindergarten and a first grade student incorporating the five areas of reading instruction (i.e. vocabulary. fluency, phonics, phonemic awareness, and comprehension).
I am continuously responding to the individual needs of my students by differentiating instruction, a strategy I believe is key to all successful teachers. My approach to lesson planning includes individualized targets, tiered group activities, and individual behavior plans, and I regularly assess my students through observation, anecdotal notes and daily charting to ensure they are able to make meaningful progress thr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelors in English from Dominican University. I began A Plus Master Tutoring Center over 4 years ago and was teaching in my home. Now we have expanded to a center in Oak Park and we tutor all ages, from Pre-K to adults. Our subjects range from phonics to algebra. Our teaching styles vary from a 3:1 ratio, which would include up to three students and one tutor, or a 1:1 ratio which would be a private session with a student and a tutor. Session prices range from $25-$27 depending on the type of session. We pride ourselves in being an affordable tutoring center compared with the prices of Huntington and Sylvan learning centers. Our tutoring center works with all types of children and we are proud of the work we put forth.

My comments on tutoring Elementary Reading : Five school years as a substitute teacher has required class, small group, and individual instruction. Additionally I have received training for instruction in this area in my pursuit of a K-8 teaching license.

My teaching style emphasizes intuition and adaptability to ensure a good fit between teaching and learning styles. Equal emphasis is placed on learning current material and the confidence for future learning. Teaching methods will vary depending on the skills, interests, and temperaments of each student.
Experience overview: 5-years experience as a substitute teacher, worked as a tutor for one year, volunteered to assist teachers in the classroom, and is in studying to become a licensed elementary teacher. Details I am currently in my fifth year of substitute teaching. The students have come from a wide variety of backgrounds and with varying degree of academic skills. I have had taught in all subject areas. In the classroom I strive to be well-prepared, organized, engaging, and accessible. I am on the preferred substitute list of many teachers and often I am cont ... read more
