ALL STUDENTS WELCOME!

Whenever I can, I like to be very hands-on in my teaching my students. For example, once I was teaching my class about trees. I had them go outside and collect samples of bark which had fallen on the ground. Then we created a gigantic mural in my classroom and glued the pieces of bark to a tree we had drawn.
I have been a self-employed Tutor since April, 2006. Special needs and home schooled students are welcomed. Nothing makes me happier than when I see the smiles on the faces of my students when they succeed rather than fail. I assist all students in skill building and creating a life-long love of learning. I provide on-going feedback to parents and am happy to work with the teachers of my students.

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : Based on personal experience, not special training

I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve.
I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student.

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I am a certified Special Education Teacher K-12 in Florida. I work with students who have dyslexia and related learning disabilities on a daily basis. I myself have dyslexia, but when I was in school, the McKay scholarship wasn't around. I am certified in the LindaMood Belle LiPS method. This method has shown, through research, to be one of the best methods for teaching student with dyslexia how to read. This is actually how I learned how to read.

This depends on the student. I can teach verbally for students who are auditory learners, visually for student who are visual learners, and kinesthetically for students who are kinesthetic learners. I know that every student can learn, it just depends on finding the specific learning style for that student.
I have been working as a teacher for three years now. I enjoy working in a private school setting (two years experience) because I can devote more time to lesson planning, after school, and creating individualized/small group curriculum as there are less students in the private school I teach at. I am the Reading Specialist and I love my job. I myself had to learn to cope with dyslexia and ADHD. I know what students are going through because I have experienced it first hand. I teach a great deal of students who have learning disabilities as well as ASD. I create and implement ... read more

I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.
I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.

I enjoy working with children. There are several assessment tools that I use in order to see where I would need to begin with any child. One of my favorite forms of assessment is Great Leaps.I have used this program and have seen growth in all subjects with students. Some students who were reading below grade level are now functioning with confidence on grade level.We all are like candles someone sparked our fire and now look how bright our lights our shinning.I would love to be that spark for your child.

A Little Bit About Me...

I want children to know that learning is a lifelong experience and that it can be fun! Learning is a process of building blocks, and it is vital for a teacher to find interests and skills upon which to build. Children need to develop learning techniques that work for them, and it is imperative for a teacher to guide them. Children need self-esteem and confidence to be all they can be, whether it is academically or more. Teachers can either be builders or destroyers in this process. I want to be a builder! Nothing excites me more than a child who discovers his/her own ability and soars!
As an educator and administrator with over 30 years of experience, I have had the opportunity to work with students in grades 1-10, teaching many modalities. Besides my classroom experience, I have 12 years experience as a principal, 10 years as a director of a learning center where I coordinat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from the University of North Fl,Cum Laude. I am certified to teach K-5. I am qualified beyond that level because I supplemented my income in college by researching, outlining and writing papers for other students. I also worked part-time as a tutor at the college level. I have a 20 year old son who is mentally challenged. I have become educated through research and his medical care about the needs of Special Education students. I have spent countless volunteer hours over the years working with these students in public and private schools. I also spent 3-4 years teaching adults computer programs. As a result, I am proficient at an intermediate/advanced level in Microsoft Word, Excel, WordPerfect, Lotus and Quickbooks Pro.
I love teaching people of all ages. I believe any person is capable of learning if their education is made specific to their needs. Some people are aud ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a tutor looking back. My friends were always asking for help with their homework. I enjoyed helping them. When their parents learned that I was a godo tutor, I found myself helping my friends' little brothers and sisters with their schoolwork. It made me feel goood inside--- stil does. I guess teaching is in my blood. I enjoyed substitute teaching the best as i give me a chance to teach a variety of topics and meet different people on a daily basis. I have classroom experience in English, History, general math, and Social Studies.
My teaching style is predicated on the belief that children truly want to learn. I like to introduce the goal or goals for today. Ask a few questions regarding ysterdays assignment and see if the class will bridg the two by itself. I believe that a class os students wiling to learn need only slight direction each day.

Being French Professeur des Ecoles and teached from 1970 to 2005 , I teached to all sorts of students, I have the Master's degree of Education, I'm actually tutoring in Latin and geography for 10th grade American students. Teaching is what I did all my life. I am French and speak 4 foreign languages fluently.
The child is in the Center of learning, he must makes learning HIS or HER problem , the teacher is a link between the child and the knowledge, but also brings all his background, his skills, his affectivity, noone can learn without being a little bit attached to the teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe patients is the key to all with learning. Especially to children who have a hard time at school or may come from a family that education is not emphasized. Children no matter what age can feel fustration and anxiety from others remaining calm, positive and assuring is the best way to get a child relaxed enough to be able stopo worrying about all other things going on in the lifes and focus on the subject at hand. Letting them know you 'know' they can do it and will stick it out with them until they do. I believe that having one person who believes in them can change a childs life and how they feel about themselves and there educational future. Every decision we make in life is a result of consequences. I would love to be that postive emforcement and make a difference in a childs life.
