Elementary Reading Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

A person who has strong negative feelings about learning is automatically hindered in any learning environment. I first gain the trust of my students, and then start to build an appreciation for learning in their minds. Once that process has begun, I inject a sense of humor, a sense of patience, and a great deal of love into my teaching. I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years. I have taught all subjects in elementary school, English, history, and mathematics in middle school, and English composition and literature in high school. Additionally, I have taught mass communication and creative writing in high school. I have taught remedial English, freshman composition, and technical writing on a collegiate level.

I am a hands-on teacher. I think children learn best by "doing." I enjoy being involved in project groups, listening to children's thoughts and ideas, and collaborating with children as we set their goals. It is my philosophy that all children can learn and I can individualize your child's instruction according to his or her learning style. Learning will take place in a positive and enthusiastic environment. I encourage children to recognize what they've accomplished, as well as, which skills still need improvement. I am a patient and compassionate teacher. I have been teaching elementary students for the past 30 years. Teaching Reading is one of my passions. I'm well versed in Children's Literature, comprehension skills, study skills, and the writing process. I am currently reading to preschoolers through the Buncombe County Library Preschool Outreach Program.

My teaching style tends to depend on the learning preferences of the student. Moreover, when necessary, I will provide additional supplemental information and practice problems. I have been tutoring students privately since 2004 in a variety of subjects for grade levels ranging from elementary to graduate level university coursework and Ph.D. dissertations. I mostly tutor students in Mathematics, Literature/Humanities, and Business courses. However, I have also tutored many students from grades 1-12, but I am also experienced tutoring traditional and non-traditional college students. I also tutored and graded for the John Carroll University Department of Mathematics and Computer Science for five years. In addition, I have two years of Statistical Consulting experience in a variety of different fields, whereby I use mostly SAS and SPSS, as well as STATA. Currently, I am pursuing a M

My students have improved their reading skills by one or more grade levels. I bring over fifteen years of teaching experience in language arts and math to my students. After retiring from full-time teaching, I began tutoring students ranging from first graders to students prepping for the SAT, ACT, and GRE exams. I've tutored both individuals and small groups and have seen students improve their academic careers dramatically. Students want to succeed. I offer the personalized curricula and individual attention that build the confidence and skills students need to turn their academic lives around. I’ve helped C students become academic stars and failing students discover their inner scholar and bring home grades that make their parents smile.

I have been successful in teaching early literacy skills, beginning reading, advanced reading and tutoring remedial reading for over 10 years. I am currently a teacher in a small private school that I founded a year ago. The school serves students in grades kindergarten through second grade. The school was founded with the idea of promoting literacy through the encouragement of world language learning. I currently teach beginning and emergent literacy skills in English, Arabic and Chinese. Prior to this endeavor, I taught in a St. Paul charter school for many years. During that time I served as a kindergarten teacher for 3 years, and an Arabic teacher for grades K-2 for one year. I also helped to design and implement a very successful PreK program in which I served as a teacher for 3 years. I taught first grade for a Minneapolis charter school for one year.

My teaching philosophy is based on individualized learning and high expectations. I also rely a great deal on the opinions of parents and teachers to support the student to reach their full potential. The goal is for students to become independent workers who can critically analyze their assignments and goals and take the lead on excelling. I have a PhD in Education and graduated school with a 3.8 GPA. I have six years experience in private tutoring for students in elementary, middle and high school. I also have six years experience teaching GED classes in non-profit organizations (e.g. The Salvation Army in South Phoenix, Arizona). Students and parents feel that I am knowledgeable of the subject matter, pay close attention to detail and provide individualized learning experiences.

Beyond simply "tutoring", my work with students is aimed at long-term cognitive development. Instead of teaching concepts, I work with students to train their thinking patterns, the literal way they "see" words/numbers and tasks. I begin where the student is at--his or her level of skills--and make sure there is success at first to help initiate motivation to learn and launch forward. From my psychology (M.Ed.) advanced degree, I use skills to discover the student's best path of learning (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.)and involve his/her specific interests. By forming a tailored curriculum program based on learning preference and interests my students have been successful toward reaching their goals. It has been my pleasure to watch these amazing changes take place. My experience with approx. 25 different learning challenges (diagnoses) has allowed me to become sensitive to individua

My students exhibited diversities in learning styles, backgrounds, cultures, and interests. I have taught English to students at many levels, including, standard, honors and advanced placement. Additionally, I was an active club sponsor and peer mediator. It has been and will always be my utmost goal to tailor my teaching methods to best meet the needs of all of my learners in order to ensure the highest level of success for each child. When I began my teaching career, my passion for English propelled me to initiate and nurture the same love of literature and writing in young people. However, although the aforementioned mantra remains in tact, another overarching mission evolved––to devote myself to the betterment of children’s lives using all of the knowledge, experience, skills and devotion that I have to offer. Two of the greatest rewards that I have received thus far in my teaching
