I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught

I have worked with many students with attention issues. I not only tutor int he subject areas needed but can guide and coach the student in organization, assignment completion and planning. Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

I am a certified K-5 teacher. I have worked with general ed students as well as students with disabilities. Because of the work I have done in the past, meeting the needs of all students based on their learning style is important. I believe that students who struggle in school also tend to need help with personal time management, organization of school materials, study skills and project planning. It is important to get to know a student and their learning style, this helps to meet the needs of the students best. I enjoy hands on learning and incorporate this into as many activities as possible.

My teaching style is reflected in my 35 years of teaching Learning Disabilities. Every student has a different learning style that they use in the educational setting. I use a variety of teaching approaches to find the most productive with the individual student. In all approaches the end result must be the understanding of the material and the ability to show competence. The majority of my teaching and tutoring experience has been with small groups or individually which is why this program is so appealing to me. I retired last year after teaching Learning Disabilities for 35 years at the high school level. I have taught most subject areas but specialized in math. I also tutored for the last 8 years in the Hospital Homebound Program working with 6th-12th graders in nearly all required subject areas after school. Last year I tutored eight students grades 3rd through 6th in math and

I was a reading researcher for Florida State University. Presently I am a tutor for the Literacy Council of Manatee County, working with adults. My teaching style is one of patience. I use a 'multi-sensory' approach; focusing on how the student learns. Some students learn from listening, seeing or looking; and others by touching objects. I like to use a variety of materials, books, videos, computers, dvds; puzzles, games; anything that will create that 'aha' learning moment. I like to create a positive learning environment; one that will allow the s
