Hearing Impaired Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Loxahatchee, FL

Everyone has different learning styles and respond to stimili differently. I prefer to adjust my teaching style to meet the needs of the learner. I have developed a variety of materials to work with visual, auditory and kinesthetic learners and I am comfortable combining a variety of methods and materials to ensure a successful learning experience. I have been a Speech and Language Pathologists providing Special Education services in the public school in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Florida. I have worked with children ages birth to highschool as well as adults with brain injuries that have affected their speech and language capabilities.

I have also trained teachers who work with preschool and kindergarten children and have spent many years developing, reviewing an

I love teaching in content fields, using themes or interests, particularly math and reading. The 7 Multiple Intelligences describe how I try to structure my lesson because each learner has their own learning style. I like to provide a combination of strategies, and make learning as functional as possible. Every learner has strengths and weaknesses, and a good teacher facilitates learning opportunities using someone's strengths, and teaches strategies towards the weaknesses. I am a highly qualified Florida teacher, who holds a Professional license K-8 with a BS in Elementary Education/ESE in FLorida, RI, and have had over 9 years of experiences facilitating the personal and academic growth of a variety of people/settings/levels within the Education, ESE, and Human Services fields. In the last two years, I have tutored 3rd grade for FCAT testing.

I have experience working with children with speech and language delays/disorders for the past 2 years. Although I do not possess a teaching certificate because I am a licensed speech language pathologist, I have had experience in the elementary and pre-school setting teaching concepts, especially those related to literacy. I am extremely patient when working with children. I am used to working with children who find simple things difficult and offer empathy toward their struggles while motivating them to succeed. I am an "out of the box" thinker and am good at thinking of different ways to teach things on the spot (in response to the child's needs). I try to make learning as fun as possible by turning simple tasks into fun "games" or activities to engage children and aid them in the learning process.

I am personally motivated toward education and understand the challenge learning can be to some students. My first language was Italian, not English. I overcame this primary education handicap to graduate with high honors in 4 years yet earning both bachelors and masters degrees. Having this great passion for education, I am highly enthusiastic and motivated to contribute my skills to create a healthy learning environment, regardless of any limitations a student may perceive. It is my goal to enrich the lives of each student with whom I interact. I believe it is these qualities along with my experience that makes me uniquely qualified as tutor. I taught and coordinated ESE in both resource and self contained elementary classrooms in Florida until starting a family. As a contractor to IBM World Trade, I tutored the families of Italian, Spanish and Portuguese speaking foreign assignees

I am a hands-on teacher. I get involved with my students past the classroom and make myself available to them on a constant basis. I truly enjoy teaching the adult learner because they are here because THEY want to be here. I have taken students to job interviews, shopping for clothes for new jobs, help with family literacy issues, assist in finding medical care and much more. Teaching adult education is way more than reading, writing, and math. It involves the entire adult, and many times, his or her problems as well. I have been involved the teaching, design, and implementation of adult education programs, including ABE over the last 8 years. I have been awarded "Teacher of the Year" for adult education and wrote an award winning program for adult education in PBC. I thoroughly enjoy working with a diverse population, including the many different immigrant populations we have here in s

This Summer 2009 I'm graduating from Palm Beach Community College. I will attend Florida Atlantic University and major in Art History Education. My personal experience in tutoring kids with disability was in August 2007 until March 2008, for the tiem being I tutor my cousin in math and basically I just help her with math and english homework. I also help tutor my students in college with Spanish classes. I prefer working with children do to the fact that I was a very distracted girl when I was in elementary and I always needed help in math beacuse I did not put much attention in class. I think every child has their own way of learning things, what works for some children might not work for others and usually adults do not have any patience what so ever with children. I think some professor do not have a real devotion when it comes to teach children. That is why I try to use different met

While student teaching, I found out just how much I enjoy teaching. I believed I was able to help all the students I had in some way or another, whether it be educationally, socially, or emotionally. While student teaching, I would work with children in one-to-one lessons or in small groups. I believe all children can achieve their potential which just a little push and extra motivation. I obtained my BS in Speech & Language Pathology at SUNY Fredonia. In my senior year, I student taught at Panama Central School, NY. Student teaching opened my eyes into the field that I was studying and which I am still studying. While student teaching, I was able to help children with a broad spectrum of issues whether it be articulation problems, language deficits, and something helping with their homework. I am now at Florida Atlantic University for my master's in Communication Studies and Disor

I enjoy working with a wide array of students and abilities. I believe that all children have different learning styles, and can flourish when their own unique style is presented to them. I would describe my teaching style as laid back yet strong, extremely patient, and considerate of each child's individual needs. I believe that with patience, belief in the student, and the proper learning atmosphere, all children can reach their maximum potential. To finish my college experience, I student taught in a 3/4 split classroom. There, I created and implemented lessons for both my third and fourth grade students, and managed two classes within one classroom. In my next semester, I student taught in a varying exceptionalities classroom comprised of EH, autism, CP, and down syndrome children. Currently, I am embarking on my third year as an ESE teacher in an autism cluster. Each of my stud

Before I graduated from the university I went to Chile for one year and taught ESOL for one year to students from 5 years old all the way up to adults. I was also a teacher's aide for a school for childeren with varying learning disabilites. After I graduated with my BA in Elementary Education I worked with at-risk teens teaching all the subject areas. I was preparing them for the GED exam. Later on I taught in a school for childeren with dyslexia. Recently I was an ESOL Unit Coordinator for an agency. In this agency I tested, designed, and put into place curriculum and tracked student progress. I always enjoyed working with childeren of diverse backgrounds. Since there are four styles of learning I believe lessons should be taught to all four learning styles. No matter what level at child is at all childeren can be taught to excel beyond their level.

If I had to use one word to describe my teaching style it would be active. I believe that you must involve and engage students as much as possible to be an effective teacher. This means providing lessons that are well planned and enjoyable while reinforcing relevant skills. It means having a good teacher student relationship where there is a mutual respect and teamwork to reach a common goal. This also means having an energetic personality that shows the student you are interested in helping them learn. It means showing the student that you care about their success and that with hard work from both parties together those goals can be reached. During my training to become a Speech and Language Pathologist, I have been lucky enough to encounter a wide variety of students. These opportunities lead me to obtain a position working as a Speech Language Pathologist in the public school system i

Everyone knows how daunting it can be to face a seemingly insurmountable challenge. I even look back at assignments I faced, and can remember a certain amount of trepidation with which words like ‘term paper’ were sometimes charged, despite the fact that I always knew academic success. However, I also always relished learning, and can’t remember a time when the world wasn’t exciting, and when learning something new didn’t make me smile. All these experiences have fed my perspective as an educator, and I believe that I not only put students at ease and build confidence, but also help to inspire them and share an avid curiosity about the world. The interdisciplinary nature of my education helps me creatively find a means to explain things when students can’t get a handle on a particular concept or idea. I’m professional, but thoroughly easygoing, friendly, and even fun. Most of my studen
