Education focused on achievement.

The individual needs of the student will direct my teaching strategies. I make every effort to be student centered. For example, "what is the best way to help this person understand reading comprehension?". Students have varying apptitudes and well as strengths and sometimes, weaknesses. I develop a strategy to help my students learn by exploring education through their own apptitudes and strengths. Doing this results in learning as well as reducing weaknesses.
I am a teacher and tutor. A good deal of my experience has been teaching Reading and Language Arts. I also have a degree in Learning Disabilities. I have taught general education as well as special education. I have taught at all levels. My most recent experience is in a primary class. I have also tutored secondary and college level students in Writing Skills and Reading.

Cognitive Learning Intervention Strategies for Education

Over the past eight years, I have had the privilege of implementing and developing learning intervention plans for a wide array of students. I have extensive experience addressing the learning needs of students with a variety of diagnoses: dyslexia, add/adhd, capd, autism-autism spectrum disorders, and language processing disorders. It is my personal dream to provide sensory cognitive instruction at an affordable cost for all students who demonstrate need. My rates are negotiable.
Using a multi-sensory strategies and the Socratic Method of questioning, I enable to students to experience learning and discover answers in a meaningful way.

Special Education Teacher With Tutoring Experience

It is important for me to be able to meet the student where they are at and go from there. I am relaxed in my style but hold high expectations regarding work ethic and progress. Generally I also just love to work with people.
For the past six years I have worked at a school for students who have language based learning disabilities, teaching and tutoring. Thus I have a lot of experience not only working with students who have learning disabilities but also a passion for teaching reading and writing. I also have a lot of private tutoring experience.

More About This Tutor...

In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I've learned a lot about interacting with children. I am also a trainer for my coworkers and new employees who join our team. Throughout High School and College, I excelled in Math and Science, and use many of the concepts that I learned each day in the laboratory.
I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching and it is such a joy to see "the light come on" in a child's mind. I believe children all learn in different ways and a great teacher will find the best way for each child to learn. The goal I have always strived for is that all of my students love school and love learning. Then it is easier to meet all of the goals placed by our society and school system.
I have taught in the classroom for children from pre-school age to third grade. After receiving training from the state of NC for child care credentials, I also have taught adults at a community college. I have occasionally worked part-time tutoring students in reading and math.

The first thing that I try to do is get to know my client, mainly focusing on what they both like and dislike about school. Then we narrow it down even further to the subject that they are having problems in. I ask them what they think the problem is, find out what the school/teacher thinks the problem is (through review of their coursework including past homework and tests) and come up with a solution that will benefit the student, teacher, and parent to improve and fix the situation.
I recently relocated to the Huntersville area. I recently graduated from UNCW with a degreee in Psychology with a focus on children. Since middle school, working with children has been my passion. I realized my dream after some of my cousins came over to America from the war torn country of Liberia and were having a very hard time adjusting. I was accepted to UNC Chapel Hill's Master's Program for R ... read more

I have worked as a tutor K-12TH grades in all subjects, an EOG tutor,a Title 1/SES tutor, GED tutor, preparer for private and public schools. For the last seven years I have worked with children that have ADD,ADHD, mild Autism and your basic slow learner.I really enjoy helping children especially the slow learner because I believe everyone can learn but at their pace and every child should have that experience to bring his abilities to the surface. Patience and great stamina are my roots and time will make a better student.
I get great results in repetition and "Steps to Success", these methods let everyone shine at their pace without intimidation.Kids learn less when they are embarrassed or intimidate and I refuse to be that stumbling block when I am their to help that person to success and a stronger ability to learn.

I have enjoyed all of my experiences working, teaching, and tutoring individuals. While I was in college I worked as a preschool teacher. Then into the public school system in New York and North Carolina, both being very different from one another. And finally on to tutoring. All facets of educating others is an amazing feeling and accoplishment for me and for the individuls I am working with. I was born a teacher and am a teacher in all aspects of my life- even out of the classroom. Always encouraging others with patience and positive feedback, just as I do in the classroom or home setting. I am a teacher at heart and cannot imagine doing anything else. I look forward to educating and improving the lives of many other individuals as I continue my tutoring career.

My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level.
In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings. I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people.
