Many years of experience in teaching students with an ADHD diagnosis. I believe in meeting a student at whatever level he or she is ready to work. I am friendly and like to develop a personal relationship with my students in order to know how to serve them better. I use technology as appropriate. I began my career teaching music to students in grades K-8. I have always loved the Special Needs students and thus chose to pursue my Master's degree in the Special Education field. My first Special Ed. assignment was for ADHD and LD students in 7th grade Math and Language Arts. From there I have progressed to being the Lead teacher in inclusion settings as both the regular education teacher and the special education teacher.

Sam p. - Knoxville, TN 37919 (4.6 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My style of teaching has a practical approach. I focus on what the student wants to get out of our time together and their goals. I have both a Bachelors and Masters degree in Accounting. After receiving my masters in 2005, I went on to work in public accounting for 5 years where I gained experience as an auditor working for a Big 4 CPA firm. Part of my job responsibilities were to develop and coach new staff while on the job. This requires teaching them how to apply their accounting knowledge learned school as well as teaching them accounting principals that were both new or forgotten. During that time is when I discovered that I loved to teach, and I have been tutoring privately ever since. My work experience also includes working as a tax consultant and a business analyst for two different private companies here in Knoxville. That said, I am confident that my background and experience

Ericka M - Knoxville, TN 37920 (1.4 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I graduated from the University of Tennessee with a BA in English Literature. Through my coursework at UT I polished both my analytical and writing skills, while concurrently gaining comprehensive knowledge of the canonical literature that is taught in school today and the methodology of teaching it. Additionally I have a semester of graduate school in education completed, and am well versed in different teaching strategies and used to working with learning disabled and difficult students. I believe in inspiring children to be intrinsically motivated to learn. By learning who a child is we, in turn, learn how to teach them. As a preschool teacher I am patient, encouraging, and motivated. My motto is "if at first you don't succeed try again" and it goes not only for the student but also for the teacher. I try to bring in as many outside experiences as possible to help children form

Emily A - Knoxville, TN 37917 (2.1 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I am currently a PhD candidate in Ecology at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. Throughout my education and short career I have developed teaching skills through tutoring, teaching labs to middle school students, mentoring high school students and giving informational talks on environmental issues to the public. I enjoy teaching and I feel that I have a gift for explaining science and math to people unexperienced in these subjects. I believe in inquiry based learning, or teaching any subject by incorporating the student's natural curiosity and drawing connections to their interests. I don't taking a long time to teach a student how to approach a single problem or concept and foster their understanding of the material so that they will understand how to approach the problem on their own. In other words, I put energy into explaining why they should do something so that they can reason

Rena B - Knoxville, TN 37914 (3.4 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I was determined to be the first to attend and graduate from college out of a big family. I have learned different aspects of Psychology to apply to everyday life. In the last 10 years, I have been working with troubled teens to help them get their lives back on track. I have also done some tutoring in between. Working with different age groups, have shown me that every child is their own individual. I get to know the children I work with to understand the best approach to take with them. I can work in small groups, large groups, or individual. Some children are shy and may work better alone. It takes patience to teach and I am blessed to have that gift.

Cathy K - Knoxville, TN 37912 (4 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I love teaching both school-age students and adults. I believe the three most important qualities a teacher can bring to a student are expert skills in the areas being taught, patience, and optimism. I truly believe all students can learn, and I provide a safe atmosphere that encourages risk-taking (the willingess to make mistakes for the benefit of learning), exploration and expansion of background knowledge, and the progressive acquisition of new material. With guidance, a student can construct knowledge and own it. This is far more important and complex than just imparting information. A good teacher can make all the difference in the success of a student. My backgrounds in special education (BS), adult GED preparation, and nursing (AAS - RN) have helped me develop into a patient, skilled, and compassionate teacher/tutor. I have a strong instructional foundation in basic math, pre-alg

Ronald W - Knoxville, TN 37920 (5.2 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I very much enjoy training and teaching because I understand how valuable information can be. I have 5 children of my own and get great joy helping them learn and understand things and how they can be applied to everyday practical applications in life. I try to initially gather a persons level of understanding so that I may teach at the level that is easily understood and fits with the knowledge level of the group or individual. I have worked in management, human resources, and currently I am employed in the technology sector. I utilize math and statistical analysis on a daily basis. I have extensive grammatical skills due to report preperation,presntations, and training. I have presented presentations and training for groups up to 1500 persons and I am very well spoken and articulate. During the progression of my career path I have found listening to be one of my best skills so th

Jennifer K - Knoxville, TN 37919 (6.3 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have always felt compelled to help others achieve their dreams. I graduated with a bachelor's in psychology and began working at a residential alcohol and drug treatment facility for adolescents. There I assisted the education personnel in tutoring our clients. I helped our kids with math, science, and English, at all levels of education. My work experience in this position and in the positions that I was promoted to enhanced my writing skills, interpersonal relationships, and attention to detail. My teaching style is specific to the individual child and their needs. When I worked at the residential center, I had to teach alcohol and drug awareness classes. During that time is when I learned that encouragement, patience, and a variety of methods are essential to a child's academic success. A child looks to the teacher for the effective skills and tools to accomplish their dreams

I have a comprehensive background in both early childhood, elementary, and secondary schools.

This knowledge has enabled me to grow as a professional, while allowing my students to thrive at his/her education level.
