Dyslexia Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hales Corners, WI

I am a retired special education teacher with 37 years of experience at the preschool/elementary level. I have tutored children diagnosed with dyslexia for over 10 years using the Barton Reading and Spelling System, as well as incorporating LIPS and other Orton-Gillingham materials to enhance lessons. I have found this program to be very successful with the students I have tutored. I believe in incorporating learning games with the Barton lessons to make the tutoring sessions enjoyable. The games enhance the skills being taught.

I love working with students and have excellent patience and communication skills. I also like to think of creative ways to help students learn if they are not understanding. I have found that the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but they will become more confident in their own abilities. I have experience working with a wide range of students, from K-12, as well as special needs. My specialty is microbiology, and have received a degree in cell biology from Marquette University.

Each student is unique. Therefore, I use a variety of teaching styles, strategies, methods and techniques depending on the individual's needs and abilities. A special needs student may need hands on lessons or visual learning activities. Someone else may be an audio learner. I analyze the situation, differentiate between teaching strategies and implement the most effective one. My success goes beyond the actual lessons or my experience. It's is due to the fact that I truly love teaching, thrive on the positive interactions and maintain high expectations for myself and the student. I am very flexible, patient and knowledgeable. I strive to meet the needs of the students in order for them to be successful and confident.
