I will show you multiple methods to solve a problem and help you find the one that works best for you. I have worked with adult learners, returning students, English language learners, and students with special needs. I have even taken formal coursework in education. I look forward to working with you and your individual educational needs!

Elementary Special Education Teacher

My teaching style is student centered. I try to figure out what work best for each student and go from there. If a student has a learning stye that is very hands on then I will try to make sure a portion of my lesson is tactile. It is not always easy but I strive to differentiate to meet all of my students' learning needs..
I have been teaching students with many different special needs for the past 19 years. My experience ranges from students with severe developmental delays to students with emotional disabilities. My experience has mostly been with students who have learning disabilities. I also have son that has an IEP for learning disabilities and is thriving now in school. I have worked with students ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade.

My goal is to meet your child's needs and help them succeed

I have been tutoring individually for over 8 years for multiple families and children. I have been in child care as a nanny for the past 3 years. Before becoming a nanny I worked as a preschool teacher for about 2 years. My knowledge gained through my experiences in teaching and child care have given me useful tools to help meet the needs of my students and help them to be successful in school and in life.
I am a flexible tutor and am able to switch up my teaching styles based on the strengths, preferences, interests and needs (what I like to call their SPINs). I try to meet each individual student's needs using a variety of teaching strategies and techniques based on their learning style(s).

I have tutoring experience in Reading, Math, and elementary science. As a college student, I worked as a tutor. I taught music theory, sight singing, elementary science, math, and reading. I now am a substitute teacher and am teaching a variety of subjects daily.

More About This Tutor...

I was a dual major in college-Habilitative Sciences/Special Education until my junior year when I switched to strictly Habilitative Sciences so I have many credits towards a teaching degree. I did a summer internship where we student taught special education students at the University. I have also worked non-stop since my graduation in the field of human services and have taught groups in state prisons, which I am currently employed in.
My teaching style of very hands on, as required with special ed classes. I like to have creating ways to learn such as making flash cards, "games" testing knowledge and encouraging interaction with students. I loved working with special education students and upon my retirement from the PA DOC, I plan to return to teaching full time.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught special education (emotional support) from 1971 intermediate at all levels until retirement in June, 2004. Since then I've taught part-time as special educator and tutor at an alternative school. In all these years I have taught all subjects as needed, and have learned many approaches to a given lesson. My favorite subject is Algebra I, but I am versatile. I have level 1 certificate in Wilson Language Training, and PA reading specialist certification . A sideline is 30 years of income tax preparation with a nationally know company, which had led me to earn the status of Enrolled Agent with the IRS. Another sideline is 30+ years breeding well-pedigreed boxer dogs.
My preferred style is one-on-one tutoring, and the method will vary according to the needs of the student. In using Wilson language training, I follow a fairly controlled lesson plan, updated daily to ... read more

I have a degree in elementary education with a concentration in special education. I am a homeschool mom with four children and have experience in teaching k-6. I am currently working toward obtaining my PA teacher certification. I am also in the process of applying to be a homeschool evaluator and test administrator. I would be happy to tutor in reading, math, grammar, writing and study skills.
I love to teach and believe all children have the potential to learn. I recognize that all learners are different and advocate for using a multidisciplinary approach when teaching. I am also a firm believer in classical education and think that repetition and consistency are key factors in any learning program. My goal in teaching your child is to bring them to a mastery level of understanding on the topic in witch they are studying in order that they will have a firm foundation on w ... read more

While earning my teaching degree, I was employed for 3 years as a paraprofessional and therapeutic staff support specialist. The students I tutored and counseled ranged in age from 9 to 21 years old.

My student’s exceptionality is Asberger’s Syndrome. I have been tutoring in the home for 7 years.

My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet do not become overwhelming. Since the beginning of the era in which the special education population has began being mainstreamed into regular education classrooms in most schools, I have developed a great practice of differentiated instruction. I also am aware that there are people who are a specific learning style as well as the people that are a combination of any two or three learning styles. That's who I teach for.
I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typic ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My love for learning drives me to do all that I can to make learning fun and motivating for others. I employ Gardner's eight multiple intelligences into my teaching so that material is presented in various ways. This allows students with different learning styles to be reached and to gain knowledge during each lesson. Hands-on learning is a mainstay of my teaching style as most children learn best from concrete learning. My aim is to invoke a love of learning in all the students I work with.
Education is a large part of who I am. I have earned two Bachelor degrees, BS in Human Development and Family Studies as well as a BA in Sociology. I initially worked in the field of social work upon graduation which gave me great insight into family life, sociological influences, and the impact of socio-economic factors on education. I feel I am better prepared to deal with the differen ... read more
