K-12 Successful Special Needs or English Language Tutor

I present concepts in a variety of ways, such as: "hands on," visually, problem-solving, and inquiry-based. I reinforce the concepts each time we have a session. I tutor with a style that is accepting, positive, and where my student's feel comfortable enough to ask questions and become actively involved. All my students are successful learners who have fun learning!
My passion in life is teaching, where I can tutor students on a 1:1 basis! My teaching / tutoring experience includes classroom high school teaching, where my specialties were Math, Science, and English. Also, I tutored middle-schoolers in ESL, Social Studies, and Literature. I enjoy tutoring adukt learners on English and Citizenship. And finally, I have taught private piano lessons and music reading.

My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : Able to help with subject

I work with all different types of learners such as visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and read write when it comes to students. I make sure that the children and adults will understand the course material and subject matter they are working on of their own academics.
I have had 22 years total of tutoring experience, worked for six different supplemental educational services tutoring providers, worked for three different online tutoring companies, and have eleven years of experience as an ESL Teacher. In addition, I have the content knowledge of the academic subjects, am confident, and interested in what I am tutoring. My goal with the parents is to help their child work towards improved grades, increased confidence, and performing at or above the grade level. As for adults I am knowledgeable about the subject matter and course material. Also, I do Free Talk lessons as to whatever you' ... read more

ADD/ADHD is one of my top subjects! I have a mild/moderate special education credential and have worked with many students with ADD/ADHD.I work on study skills, work habits,fine motor skills, organization and social skills as they pertain to academics, which are areas of struggle for the students with these issues. I also help students with interest/career direction and testing. I have worked with curriculum such as Touch Math, Step Up to Writing, Explode the Code,and Handwriting Without Tears. I have also raised 3 kids with ADD who have just finished their first year of college.

15 years of teaching children with special needs has given me a great understand of what your child needs. I have a passion for teaching and love to work with all students, seeing results in growth of self esteem, knowledge and the meeting of their potential. I have 15 years' experience in the special education field. Since I started my career, I have learned the art of communication and the ability to work with students of all ages, parents, and staff in consulting and educational interaction. I have a Master's degree in special education and hold both my clear Level 2 mild/moderate special education credential and my multiple teaching credential, as well as my autism authorization. Over the years I have found that the best learning and the best teaching is done on an individualized basis, and so I have decided to continue my career as a one-on-one tutor.

Children loves my style of tutoring! It is FUN!

My teaching style is "thinking outside of the box", where I try in multiple ways to teach a student until they have an understanding. Each student is an individual and each has different learning styles. I am the one, that needs to be flexable with teaching. I like to joke some and lighten up the atmospher while tutoring.
I have work as a para educator and a volunter in a special education classroom setting as well as a special education church ministry. I have over ten years experince in the Early Childhood Development area. I have tutor for over three years for company's as well as for myself.I have an A.A. in Liberal Arts, A.S. in Early Childhood Development, B.S. in Business Mangagement, Special Education Creadential (Mild/Mod), and a Master's Degree in Special Education.

Incorporate many teaching styles not all students learn the same.
Have been in the education feild for nine yrs. Spent most of those years in special education.

I respect my students and they respect me. I expect them to work hard, because I work hard, as well. I will do what is humanly possible to help them achieve their goals. I connect with students on a personal level to find out their manner of learning, and after that, I find materials which will make it easier for them to learn. I enjoy working with students who love learning, but if they do not, I can still help them to do better in school.
I have been teaching for twenty seven years in various grades, schools, and types of classes. I taught for 16 years in a bilingual classroom. My last 11 years of teaching have been in a traditional classroom. I have taught every grade level from 1st to 7th, and currently, I even teach an ESL class after school. My areas of expertise would be writing, English grammar, Spanish, and social sciences. I currently tutor students to prepare for their s ... read more

All pupils are boundless. I show them their power.

I'm pretty laid back. I like my students to make effort and hope to add a little fun in there but for the most part I expect my students to learn at their own pace and it doesn't matter how fast they move but they have to make effort.
I have just earned my TESOL certification and am looking forward to beginning teaching English. I have spent a majority of my life teaching in one form or another. My elementary school, Hamen Elementary, had a program in which good students could tutor mentally challenged students. I did that for three years. I also spent 8 years teaching martial arts and three years teaching dog training. I am also responsible for the majority of my younger brother's education. He is special needs and got expelled from kindergarten. He has since graduated. So I have a great deal of experience teaching students of all levels and abilities.

I teach like I learn by hands-on, listening, reading, writing, and practicing what I have learned. I like to tap into prior knowledge of my students through informal and formal assessments, talking to their parents, and talking to them about what they think they are capable of or would like to improve about themselves. I praise students for their specific accomplishments and never make them feel bad when they are unable to do something they think they should be able to do better. I relate to people who struggle in math because I was one of those students. I have a lot of empathy and patience and that comes through in my teaching style.

I graduated from CSUS and received my BA in Psychology in 2007. I worked as a tutor in a Title-I elementary school working with children at or below reading level and also those who were ESL. I also worked as an assistant pre-school teacher at a college in Sacramento for low-income parents. For the last year, I have worked as a substitute teacher for grades K-12 for two school districts. I am currently working on my MA in School Psychology, as well as my PhD in Psychology.
My belief is based upon the idea that all children are different and consequently, they learn differently. I have been taught how to approach those of ESL backgrounds, a multitude of handicaps, and learning disabilities, just to name a few. For instance, every once in a while, a child will take too long to copy notes off of the board or doesn't understand directions that well. For istances like this, I write down ... read more

All students have equal rights to the best possible education regardless of race, gender, religion, or academic level of achievement. Children enter our classrooms with a variety of backgrounds and a wide range of abilities and needs. I will strive to help and encourage those in need of more assistance. I strongly believe that in order to be a great teacher you have to be reflective. I continuously evaluate myself as an educator and look for ways to improve so that all of my students are reached.
I am an enthusiastic individual who holds a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. I was fortunate to work as a student teacher in both a first and fifth grade classroom. Guiding children through the process of becoming readers was my greatest attribution in first grade. I am currently substitute teaching.
