My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : My best friend in middle school had dyslexia and I helped her with her school work.

I am a high school honor roll student. My strong points are English, grammar,phonics,reading,writing,science,history. I have a sister that is in elementary school and I help her complete her homework every night. I have had the opportunity to work with kids my age and younger that have autism. My cousins have ADD/ADHD and I have helped them as well. I hope to help anyone I can with every subject except for math.

I have a love for learning and teaching!

I have been teaching special education for six years. I taught special education to kindergarten through third grade in a Montessori school for four years. I have experience in teaching students with disabilities in reading, writing, and math. Many of my students have also been diagnosed with ADHD/ADD, autism, learning disabilities, and emotional impairments. I am currently teaching my second year at a center-based school for autism. In my teaching career, I have used a variety of hands-on material and visuals. I am also a native German speaker. I grew up in Northern Germany and I am therefore familiar with the German culture as a child as well as an adult.

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : Reading and spelling is taught using the Orton-Gillingham approach. This method is perfect for students with Learning Disabilities, dyslexia, ADHD/ADD, and language processing problems. I use materials from the Wilson Reading System for their ease and low cost to parents. I am a Michigan certified teacher in the area of Learning Disabilities, Secondary English, and Secondary Social Studies. I have 22 year of experience working with children and adults with language processing problems. I have been rated "Highly Effective" every year. My goal is 100% fluency. References upon request. No students under 10 years old.

My teaching style is very hands on. I employ a visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile (VAKT) method for remembering the rules of the English language. This method is described as "direct" or hands on and one-on-one. I only work with one student at a time.
Hello, my name is John Hett and I am passionate about teaching children and adults how to read. I am a "Highly Effective" Michigan certified teacher in the area of Learning Disabilities, Secondary English, and Secondary Social Studies. I prefer to work with students who are dyslexic or have a language processing problem. I currently teach high school English with a focus on writing. I have 22 years experience using the Orton-Gillingham Method. I use materials from the Wilson Reading System due to ease and cost. Parents must purchase these materials prior to instruction. I teach with 100% fluency in mind. My preferred time in a ... read more

Share your knowledge to someone else.

I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.
Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

A Little Bit About Me...

I originally went Michigan State University to become an Occupational Therapist and I received a BS in Kinesiology. However, when I began to substitute teach on the side, I immediately fell in love with teaching. Last year, I enrolled in graduate school at Marygrove College and I am currently working on my Master’s in Special Education. I have gained experience both teaching and tutoring in the last three years, as I work as a substitute teacher. I have worked as a long term sub for an 8th grade Science and Math class. I have seen first hand the difference a teacher can make in a child’s life, and I want to be one who helps! I want to give back to others what my teachers and tutors gave to me.
As a teacher, it is my responsibility to enhance children’s learning using a variety of strategies. I value children’s education, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. I will ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked in education at the community college level for several years. I worked as an English Tutor for four years at Washtenaw Community College before being asked to join the part-time teaching staff. My class load consisted mostly of Composition I and Technical Writing classes; occasionally I would substitute for Literature courses when needed. In addition to my educational experience, I also have corporate experience working as a Technical Writer/Documentation Specialist in companies such as: EDS, GM, and Consumer Energy.
I can’t imagine myself not spending the rest of my life teaching. I have worked both in the educational field and the corporate world and without a doubt I know with whom my heart belongs. As a tutor at an Ann Arbor based institution I had the opportunity to work with a number of different backgrounds and styles of learning. I aided a varying degree of s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I dealt directly with children and families from disenfranchised populations, demographically diverse populations, and special needs populations. What I value most is having the opportunity to work with adults and children simultaneously. This gave me a broad over-standing of how to approach very challenging situations. In addition, what I have found to be an effective tool when working with academically challenged youth is having patience, and showing unconditional positive self-regaurd.
My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in individual and group therapy at a master level in the field of social work. During my time at Eastern Michigan University, I was able to advance my skill set and knowledge-base by being in a supervisory role. As I matriculated, I learned how to multi-task as I was a graduate student and an employee for EMU. In my role I tutored and advis ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The opportunity to tutor and inspire students within your organization is an exciting prospect that I feel qualified for and fully able to undertake. As I have matriculated through my educational experience thus far, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial form of teaching. I have also learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but become more confident in their abilities to think and learn independently. I love to work with young people and will continue to strive to be a positive influence in their lives.
Education serves many purposes. The common purpose of education is to impart a knowledge and understanding of the world in which we live in hopes that our students will become scholars, develop character, leadership skills, and serve the community. ... read more
