Peggy M. - American Fork, UT 84003 (6.7 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $27.50/hr.
My son & myself have Dyslexia & ADHD, plus, my son has a few other learning disability's, so the experts say. We have learned together how to make all of this work for us. I researched a lot & learned how to teach him how to make it all this work for him. He was on low dose med's for 6 months, I took him off because he learned the difference in 7th grade. No reason for any more med's. I do not think kids should be labeled as "disabled" because others think different then they do! My son thinks way different then my daughter but that doesn't mean either one is wrong. My son is very successful at his job & he is now a boss & he loves his job. He is 31 years old and a great person, everyone like him.

Skyler L. - Salt Lake City, UT 84123 (21.5 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I have a brother who has ADD and when my parents couldn't help him, I was there to help him do his regular work. Throughout high school, I had trouble trying to figure out what I wanted to do when I graduated. I took many classes that ranged from Weight Training to Biology. I took many Art classes in which I excelled at. I then took some Computer Technology classes and I loved it. So I figured I would put the two together and took Graphic Design classes. I loved it. I am very competent in using all sorts of Graphic Design programs. I got my first guitar around 8 years ago and just picked it up and learned it. I have been learning ever since. I personally, have taught many people the basics of guitar and gave them the tools to excel in music.

Dianne K. - Farmington, UT 84025 (39.7 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $30.00/hr.
ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts. I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school.

Douglas K - Orem, UT 84097 (2.4 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $33.50/hr.
While attending USU, I spent two semesters working at Wilson Elementary School. I was a teachers aide in the special education classroom. I provided instruction and practice in reading, writing, and arithmetic. My first school of employment was a residential treatment center for troubled youth. While employed there, I taught math subjects ranging from General Math to Calculus. I learned to explain concepts in a variety of ways that did not result in the students become frustrated. I have written many reports describing student behavior, learning preferences, and classroom accommodations that would benefit the student. At my current school, I am teaching math courses to students grades 7th - 12th. Teaching is a gift from the student to the teacher. The student is giving their time and attention to the teacher in hopes that they will increase in understanding, ability, or skill. T

Jesse C - Provo, UT 84604 (4.5 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Though I studied Psychology while attending Utah Valley University, I spent two and a half years tutoring college students in English. I spent my senior year editing a scholarly journal for the School of Business Management. As a tutor, I helped students who were learning English as a second language to comprehend and properly use idioms and phrases in their writing, as well as helping them with spelling and grammar. I also helped students whose writing lacked polish to improve papers written for many different subjects. I helped an otherwise smart dental student who struggled with composition write an application for dental school, and he got in. I prefer sitting at the student's elbow, with the assigned work in between us, focusing on it together. I talk about "it" rather than "you" to avoid making the student self-conscious. Writing can always be improved, and each student has areas o

Anoah David E - Provo, UT 84604 (5.5 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I've never met a "stupid" student. I see all people as capable, as long as they are willing. I find it easy to get a student interested in a subject when they have usually been bored in class. I easily create metaphors and practical examples for application of the subject at hand so the student can personalize their studies. Once a student sees how the subject "fits" in their life, their interest level often changes. With a Master's degree in counseling, I have had various experience working with youth on a clinical level. Before going into counseling I was on track to become a high school math teacher. I have taken courses up through Calculus III and Number Theory. I feel very capable in this area. I also am an avid and good creative and technical writer. I have tutored students from elementary to college level in mathematics, English, writing, basic sciences, and other various humaniti

Katelyn J - Provo, UT 84601 (6.1 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $63.00/hr.
Building a good relationship with a child is key to helping them learn. When good relationships are developed children can then trust the teacher or tutor to help them in whatever way possible. This relationship builds a good emotional bank account and children will do hard things when asked.
I know that all children can learn. I have seen it while working with the wonderful children at the school I worked at. I recently graduated from Brigham Young University in April 2011. I am a graduate in Communications can help in English, Writing, Editing but also took AP Calculus and AP Statistics and passed both tests. I love math but feel that communicating through writing is very important. During the last two years I have worked at an Elementary School as Para Professional tutoring children in Math and Reading both in small groups and one-on-one. I love helping children learn!

Katherine W - Provo, UT 84606 (6.8 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $61.00/hr.
I strive to help your child achieve academic and personal success.
In my student teaching, I saw first-hand the need for students and teachers to have a relationship where fairness and mutual respect are top priorities. I also witnessed how students can feel the intention of their teachers: when teachers truly desire for their students to succeed, the students can sense this. I am committed to creating a positive relationship with your child and to let him/her know that his/her success is my main goal.
When teachers have high expectations, their students consistently rise to meet them. I will set my expectations high for your child, as I believe he/she can and will meet them with the proper support and encouragement. My experience at Brigham Young University instilled in me a desire to pursue lifelong learning and to assist others in their own quest for knowledge. I earn

Jodi P - Springville, UT 84663 (11.2 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education with a minor in ESL (English as a Second Language) teaching. Throughout my educational experience, I had many opportunities for tutoring students one-on-one in a variety of subjects. I’ve tutored a broad spectrum of students, from those who were struggling and falling behind, to some who were excelling and who simply needed help being motivated. I once had an Israeli student who knew almost no English when the school year began, and I tutored her every day in oral language and reading instruction. In a matter of a few months, she showed tremendous improvement. In my five years of teaching elementary school, not only have I taught reading, writing, math, social studies, science, and art in a whole classroom setting, I have also tutored many children individually, mostly in reading, writing, and mathematics. Every child is differe

Mittie L - Cottonwood Hts., UT 84121 (17.3 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I received an award for classroom management, and work well with students who are learning English as a second language. I believe all children have the potential to excel if given the opportunity. I believe that attitude and approach create the climate in a classroom. I believe that learning is growth and not accumulation. I also believe a student must believe a teacher cares before they will care what a teacher knows. It is also important for a teacher to help a student develop positive self-esteem. I taught in a bi-lingual charter school and worked with students from many diverse ethnic backgrounds I also substituted in my off-track time for ESL instructors and Special-Ed students with learning disabilities. Each year I taught I attended special seminars on reading development and literature.

Melissa B - Salt Lake City, UT 84124 (21.2 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Tutoring begins and ends with the student. As a collaborative effort, the tutoring process differs from teaching in that the tutor not only guides the student but also magnifies what skills the student has. Rather than empower tutors, tutorials give students the knowledge, ability, and expertise to carry out future tasks. For many, confidence comes through practice, modeling, and questioning. Once students become aware of the critical process, they will be able to carry their skills with them throughout their academic career and beyond.
I approach my students not as a final authority but as someone who wishes to share my experience with them. Whether through drilling fundamental vocabulary or grammar, brainstorming ideas, examining logic, or revising finished papers, I help my students not only on their papers, but in the process of writing and study methods as well, ensuring that fu
