Creative Teacher with 15 Years of Classroom Experience :)

Hands on, creative, and flexible. Children learn when learning is fun and engaging.
With 15 years of classroom teaching experience, I have worked with children with many different needs and learning styles. I have found that there is no "one sized fits all" when it comes to children. Therefore, I come prepared with a variety of techniques and activities to help engage your child while learning or reviewing skills. I have taught all elementary grades Kindergarten through Fifth grade.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am compassionate, enthusiastic, and highly experienced! I possess a professional degree with certifications, and have had over 7 years of experience working with students that have special needs. I serve kindergarten through adult. With my background in Education and my specialization in Special Education, I have worked with numerous children AND adults that have experienced academic frustration.
I understand the differences in learning styles and take the time to understand your unique needs. I do not prescribe just one method to teach you; I have the experience to synthesize different methods to create a unique plan for you or your child. I combine tactile, auditory, and visual modalities to create a holistic approach that is tailored to your specific needs. I use multi-sensory instruction in everything.

I have a BS degree in Geology and a Masters degree in Special Education. I love children and I can usually establish rapport within 15-30 minutes tops.
I am a very patient hands-on teacher. I try to reach all modalities of learning.

Reading and Spelling Tutor: Specializing in Dyslexia/LD/ADHD

I teach using the Barton Reading and Spelling System (an Orton-Gillingham based program). This program teaches students to read and spell phonetically (sounding out words). I use a multi-sensory method (see a word, touch a word, say a word, hear a word), so that the student is completely engaged in the lesson through the use of most of their senses. This program was designed for students with dyslexia and learning disabilities, but would help anyone (child or adult) that struggles with reading and spelling, especially individuals with ADD/ADHD. I have seen quite a great deal of growth in the students I am currently working with and I absolutely love teaching with the Barton System!
I have a degree in Elementary Education and have been certified to use the Barton Reading and Spelling System. I have 3 years of experience in teaching grades K and 1 and 1 year of experience in teaching ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When I completed my degree in English, I happily took on every challenge set before me as a teacher. Therefore, I have a plethora of experience to offer any student who needs extra assistance in both English (literature and writing) as well as literacy and ESL. Due to my diverse skills, I not only teach AP English IV, but I also teach the decoding strand of SRA's corrective reading program which can provide instruction for a diverse population of students. Additionally, four years prior to becoming a teacher, I was a tutor in the English department at North Carolina Central University. I tutored in all aspects of writing and literature. In fact, I also became a literacy tutor in several communities in both Durham and Raleigh, NC.
I enjoy both teaching and tutoring. I have a passion for helping those who require multiple levels of assistance with sever facets of the English language ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that teaching children is a noble job. I realized that children have an instinctual readiness to learn quickly, but they need someone who knows how to approach them well and efficiently. Presenting the information in the easiest way possible and in an illustrative way was the method that made my students very satisfied with my tutoring
During my housmanship in Omdurman Hospital in Sudan I was assigned the task of tutoring medical students during their clinical clerkship period. It was a rewarding experience as it boosted my skill in teaching what I had learned. I enjoyed working with children during my pediatric rotation back in Sudan and I gained a lot of skills for how to best approach them. After I came to the USA and during my preparation to qualify as a doctor, I gained a lot of extra knowledge in biological sciences.

When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their favorite subjects) to try to encourage them to speak freely with me about what they're thinking. Then, after personal rapport is established, I begin my academic approach to tutoring by finding out how they think based on their interests or common themes, and I try to connect the material to these things. Children have trouble learning, often because the addressed concepts don't relate to their lives. I strive to connect the material to them, demonstrate its influence on their interests, and allow them to greet the academic engagement as some sort of useful tool, not a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During my time at Duke I enjoyed rigorous pre-medical subjects like biology and chemistry, but my interests also include English and psychology. I graduated cum laude in May 2009 with B.A. degrees in Pre-Med and English/History/Psychology. More importantly, I have tutored biology, writing/grammatical skills, English, psychology, and chemistry to a wide range of students—from college to elementary aged. I hope to put my 4 years of tutoring experience to work for you!
I enjoy being with people! I envision our discussions as part of an exciting collaboration to capitalize upon your strengths and learn in the most effective, efficient, and fun way. We will learn collaboratively to insure you understand what WE have talked about before I leave. I will break down abstract concepts into simple examples and respond to your feedback immediately in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a very patient person, a trait which I believe is very beneficial for a tutor to possess. I am always patient when teaching, and in doing so have succeeded in getting my point across. I like to pass on small tricks and acronyms that I have came up with for many things, some of which I have still retained to this day for my own personal use, not just for school work.
Since I am an engineering student, I have always been interested and excelled in math and science, so I have tutored many kids in all areas of science and mathematics. I have also tutored in Spanish and French. Last year, I worked with a young man who had dyslexia. I have helped kids of all ages, whether at the elementary, high school, or collegiate level.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that creating a warm learning environment and a good relationship with a student is the first step to successful learning. When a student trusts and respects their teacher, they feel safe to make mistakes, which is a wonderful way to learn. I believe that each child has his or her own learning style and way of making connections in order to create a deep understanding. I work hard to foster each of my students learning by keying into their personal way of retaining and comprehending information. I realize that learning something new can be frustrating if it isn’t coming easy. Children need to have an understanding supporter that will help them see their small achievements in order to build their confidence and achieve great heights.
After graduating from Purdue University I wanted to challenge what I had learned and how I would apply that in my own classroom. I was ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a Magna Cum Laude graduate from a well-rounded liberal arts college, I feel that I have been given the credentials to assist students with needs in almost any subject. I completed college level course work in not only my areas of study, but also in each of the scholastic disciplines in order to provide myself with the ability to expand my knowledge in all subjects. I was a Dean’s List student throughout college and was a member of several different honor societies. I have tutored students in mathematical and humanities subjects, as well as one semester spent tutoring an ESL student.
I believe that all children are capable of achieving academic success and that it is necessary to find the right teaching method in able to help them to reach their highest potential. I understand that many children learn differently than from the methods taught in schools and I am willing to work wi ... read more
