Reading is one of my top subjects! Orton-Gillingham (all ages)

I am an Orton-Gillingham certified and Barton Advanced certified dyslexia specialist with over a decade of experience working with children and adults who have dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and ADHD. I also know Lindamood-Bell(r) and several other programs. I provide assessment/screening for learning challenges, and recommend programs/approaches that will be successful for that student, homeschool support, and referrals to other tutors as needed.
I work on fostering independence and I am understanding and compassionate. I also like to play games and encourage my students to have fun while learning! As someone with a learning disability and anxiety myself, I understand kids who have these struggles.

As a teacher, I engage, encourage, and inspire success.

My teaching style is relaxed, yet rigorous. I expect students to work hard and achieve their goals. I utilize a variety of teaching styles in order to fit individual student learning styles, and I design lessons with creativity and a focus on real life applications.
I have taught English and Composition for over twenty years at the junior high, high school, and college level. In addition, I have worked in publications and taught desktop publishing and writing at the high school and college level, and have worked directly as a managing editor for college publications.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I tutored a student for 3-4 years in reading. He was educationally behind in his reading skills. He was 14 years old when I started, but he was at a 1st grade reading level. After tutoring him, I was able to get him up to an 8th grade reading level.

I try to get my students to find the answer for themselves by asking them questions. Students need to come to an understanding of their material and that won't happen if I continually give them the answers. I'm also very patient with my students. If they don't grasp a concept or topic that we're working on, I will continue to explain it to them in different ways until it makes sense.
I have been tutoring students for about 5 years. I started when I was a junior in high school. My first experiences tutoring were through the National Honor Society. I volunteered after school once or twice per week and I tutored mainly ESL students in Math and English. My senior year of high school and throughout the time I was in college, I tutored a high school student who had educational and developmental deficits. He needed help in all of his core classes from 8th grade through 12th grade. ... read more

Reading is one of my top subjects! Have excellent reading skills.

Relaxed.
Have not taught before, but I have excellent skills. Am an avid reader. Reading skills enable readers to turn writing into meaning and achieve the goals of independence, comprehension, and fluency. Reading skills are specific abilities which enable a reader to read the written form as meaningful language to read anything written with independence, comprehension and fluency, and to mentally interact with the message.

I have taken creative writing and journalism courses. I have experience in the journalism field, and won an award for one of my stories. I have also done much writing on my own, including writing a full-length novel (in the works of being edited with hopes of publication). I am an avid reader and my reading comprehension/writing scores on tests have always been well above average.
I work hands-on, using examples. However, I am readily able to adjust to new learning styles!

When teaching, I will be mindful of my position as a role model and the kind of learning I strive to promote of transformative learning among students. Transformative learning is a reciprocal--informative and uplifting for teachers and students alike. It is about opening hearts and minds and changing lives for all those involved in the process. I will consider myself a successful teacher when students feel personally changed by their participation in my classroom and when students are able to challenge their beliefs through the use of critical thinking while keeping an open mind. These are tools of empowerment and rewards of transformative teaching and learning.
I have a BA in psychology and have worked for 12 years in the mental health field. I am currently working on getting my Elem. Ed teaching license and have completed all the coursework and have completed my pre-clinicals. I ... read more

I embrace a unique passion for teaching children, especially for working with students on a one-on-one basis. I thrive on connecting with each student as an individual, and enhancing their academic lives in ways they may not get in other environments. I strive to "find" every child's gift, and celebrate it. I observe the strengths and weaknesses of each student, and work with the teaching team and parents to determine steps in building on each identified success and/or challenge. My dream is to forever work with children in an effort to provide them knowledge, safety, consistency, and love.
I designed and taught a first-ever prekindergarten program at St. Anne School in Somerset, WI. I also directed and taught children's programs with the YMCA for children age birth through prekindergarten, having received the YMCA Focus Award for Excellence in Children's Programs.

As cliché as this sounds - my favorite part of teaching is the satisfaction of knowing I made a difference. I have interacted with individuals across countless backgrounds and understand the idea of each student needing to hear things in their own terms. The simple concept penetrates through my patient teaching style. Some of my favorite ways to connect with students is to create simple analogies using subjects which interest them. My overall personable nature makes it easy for students to talk to me and I can always be counted on for advice (whether it be academic or otherwise).
My teaching experience began during high school when I would help out at my church's Sunday School providing remedial services like handing out papers. Since then I have earned a bachelor's degree in finance and economics with ambitions to earn a PhD. During my undergraduate experience I tutored begi ... read more
