“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” Robert Frost

I am an educator with 27 years of experience. I have both taught and tutored grades K-12. I have a special needs, vocational, and assessment background. I love teaching and working with students. I am very patient, easy-going, and encouraging. My teaching approach is creative and imaginative. I use methods to make lessons fun and enjoyable. I believe in using "the whole language approach," which helps to reinforce several skills at the same time. I am able to communicate my thoughts and ideas very clearly. My philosophy is that any subject can be learned, if it's presented in the correct way.
I use a creative, hands-on teaching style. I break things down and present them in simple sequence, so students don't become overwhelmed. I am very patient. I try to incorporate fun, imagination, and creativity into learning activities.

Orton-Gillingham Trained Reading Specialist

I have been teaching for 28 years of teaching; 9 years as a classroom teacher (grades 2-8) and 19 years as a reading specialist (grades K-6). I am trained in teaching Orton-Gillingham and have worked with many dyslexic students. As a reading specialist I work with struggling readers to improve their phonological awareness, phonics, comprehension, fluency, writing about reading, and vocabulary.

Experienced reading and writing instructor.

My teaching experience focuses on teaching students who face reading struggles including dyslexic tendencies. I have had extensive experience teaching reading to dyslexic students. I aslo teach reading skills including specialized reading comprehension to a wide age range of students; elementary, middle school, high school completion programs, pre-college readiness classes. I have taught part time as a private reading tutor and then became a Reading Specialist for a public middle school, then elementary reading interventionist.

On a part-time basis, I taught Reading Methods, Research Methods, and Children's Literature classes in a teacher preparation degree program.

My comments on tutoring Language Arts : I am very familiar with the curriculum across grade levels.

I have a Masters of Arts in Special Education, K-12, and have just completed classes leading towards my reading endorsement. I am currently a qualified Orton-Gillingham tutor. Besides my practicum experiences, I have been a Subsitute Teacher for the past six years, and have tutored students in grades 1 - 4th grade in reading and math.
I support the Orton-Gillingham philosophy where learning to read is a multisensory process that is systematic and cumulative.

Multiple-subject Tutor: experienced & easy to get along with

down-to-earth, kind/agreeable, with an occasional twist of humor
I have professionally tutored Math and English as an employee of Ohio University, in a private junior-high and high-school academy, and on an individual basis. I taught a semester of Elementary French at Ohio University in Athens. I am always willing to tutor any subject, but my greatest academic strength lie in language learning. English has long been my strongest subject, and I am fluent in French as well (please see the comments in my subject listing). I am also a long-time musician and singer-songwriter and would gladly provide guitar lessons.

I have taught English at the college and high school level, mainly in composition and grammar. I have also taught creative writing, poetry, and study skills courses. I have taught both in the classroom and online. Additionally, I have extensive tutoring experience, both privately and for my university.
My teaching style depends a lot on the student or students. But I always approach developing English skills with the philosophy that it is a process. Mistakes are a natural part of learning. And the key to doing anything well is practice and more practice!
