Special Needs Tutor

I have been trained in many therapeutic settings (speech, OT, social skills groups, schools) to work with children with special needs and Autism. I have worked as a 1:1 assistant to children with Autism and other disabilities including ADHD, social/emotional disorders, MR, and Down Syndrome in the Concord and Bow school Districts (Prek- 8th grade). I also have hands on experience with my 8 yr old son who has ASD.
My teaching style is fun and following the child's lead by using their interests to help them learn. Reward systems as well

ADHD & Special Needs Coaching for the Whole Family

I use a strengths based, positive coaching style to encourage students to achieve their goals. I use a step by step process and easy to use techniques to help students with ADHD improve their executive functioning skills. Together we will put together a plan that will help students succeed. My extensive background in counseling helps me understand the feelings that can accompany ADHD.
My ADHD Coaching experience is through the UNH training program. The classes prepared me to provide a strengths based, step by step approach to supporting students. I'm continuing to take courses so I can use cutting edge techniques to help students improve their executive functioning skills. My counseling and teaching experience has spanned 10 years and my goal is to help students and families enhance their self esteem while improving their study skills.

I believe any child can learn. My passion is to help your child become successful by helping them to read with comprehension, write clearly, compute accurately, think, reason, and use information to solve problems; and allow them to become responsible, independent learners. I believe in the hands-on approach to teaching and learning and use the best practices to select the best learning method. I want to make a difference in the lives of all the children I come in contact with and teach; to help them take that first step towards making their dreams and goals a reality.
As a valued member of the ANA faculty and team I continually worked to lift the standards and proficiency of all the students that I taught both directly and indirectly to prepare them for the rigors of high school and college. As the English Department Chair I mentored and provided leadership to the staff I s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Know the student first, then teach the subject! I believe most students learn most effectively when teaching is aimed at their personal learning styles, interests and abilities wherever possible. I always try to customize learning in this way. Understanding my students is the key to good teaching. That is my teaching style. I like to augment more traditional styles of teaching with visual arts and music. I believe in letting a student have control of his /her learning activities and I always teach to NH state standards of learning and assessment, unless working in a more independent setting.
I am an experienced educator who has a wide variety of experience in diverse school settings; public, private, alternative, and adult education. I am NH state certified in Social Studies (HQT) and Special Education. I also earned a masters degree in educational counseling at Southern Connectic ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Consistent and clear expectations. I am strict, but not overly so, and encourage as much problem solving as possible while asking questions that prod the student into creative search for answers as independently as possible.
I have been a Mainstream Coach for the past 8 years as my daughter was entering middle/high school and I wanted to be on a school schedule for her. I have been teaching Special Needs students, modifying the curriculum and assisting with their transition into the mainstream. I have been involved in the Homework Club after school for 2 years, tutoring students in need of support with home work.

I believe that learning is ongoing throughout life, and that we all differ in our learning styles. I like to present a topic so that it is fun, usually with tactile work using math manipulatives, or flash cards, props, and games that teach conceptual thinking skills, and methods of learning using visuals, as well as auditory cues.
I have been educating people since 1987. I began in music education, which I taught successfully for 9 years, and also taught piano lessons. I then worked in special education for 1 year as an educational technician, where I tutored math, reading, and students with severe disabilities. I continued on a transitional certificate teaching elementary grades two and four, and most recently have taught post-secondary medical assisting students at a post secondary institution as well as teaching night courses in adult education in medical terminology and med ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been involved with education for seven years now. I started by working as a paraprofessional in the special education program at Oyster River High School. This job was essentially daily tutoring of students within the school setting. In addition to this valuable experience I recently recieved my Masters Degree in Secondary English Teaching from the University of New Hampshire (in fact, Graduation was two days ago). The final step in reaching that goal was my year long internship, during which I taught a freshman English class and a Journalism 1 class, as well as helping to co-teach several other classes. Although my expertise is in the realm of English, I have tutored students in Math as high as geometry, and in Physical Science and Biology, as well as History, World Cultures, and Civics.
I am a very honest, laid back teacher. I ask a lot of my students, but I do not do so i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is entirely individualized to meet the needs of the child. As a special educator, my instruction has most often been diagnostic, targeted to meet specific goals and objectives. I relate activities to real life, so that lessons are interesting and students can apply and generalize learned skills. I use a multisensory approach. My lessons often include a combination of visuals, formula guides, manipulatives and other materials carefully selected to support and engage the individual student.
As a fourth year special education teacher, I have an extensive repertoire of strategies to help students learn. Having worked with both disabled and nondisabled children, primarily in small group and 1:1 settings, I have developed an acute sense of each of my students' learning styles, strengths and needs. Previously, I have tutored in math, social studies and study skills at th ... read more

Most of my career has involved some level of teachng or training. I trained new volunteers during the Peace Corps, I taught rural Tunisian families how to use available resources to improve their lives, training natural education instructors and volunteers at the Wells Reserve, traqining and coordinating volunteers within my roles as Executive Director, completing all course requirements for my Maine Teacher Certification, obtaining Ed. Tech III, Highly Qualified status in Maine, and substitute teaching, and now in my role as Title I, Ed. Tech II at Valley View Community School in Farmington, NH where I work extensively with children with special needs.
I believe that questions are more powerful teaching tools than simply delivering answers. I do not wish to teach my students WHAT to think; my goal is to help students learn HOW to think, and to develop a pssion for learning which ... read more

Over the past several years I have helped students achieve their potential in a wide variety of educational settings. I have taught several different subjects including social studies, math, reading, and French to students ranging from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Although my undergraduate degree is in history and my teacher certification is in social studies, I am fluent in French and am very good at mathematical subjects including geometry, trigonometry, and algebra.

A Little Bit About Me...

My interest in education started in childhood from my parents, both of whom were teachers. Throughout my own schooling I excelled in Language Arts and Mathematics. I obtained a BA in Psychology in 1983 and found that I preferred to work in teaching. My Master’s degree from Northeastern Univ. was completed with a 4.0 grade average. I continue to take graduate courses through the Univ. of Lowell in MA. I have tutored typical children, children with learning disabilities, those who experience difficulties in the elementary years, students with severe disabilities and adults learning English as a Second Language. Teaching effective study skills and academic organization is a particular specialty of mine.
When I first meet students I informally assess their learning style. I begin at the level of the student and devise lessons and strategies to help the student reach lear ... read more

As a creative writing major at school, i was an avid member of our newspaper, serving as copy editor. When i graduated college i continued my summer job as a technical writer at an engineering company. My last position was also an assistant technical writer. Both positions required knowledge of AP style, extreme detail to grammar and an ability to write different styles. After school in between finding career positions, i briefly tutored and substitued as a paraprofessional in the nearby school district. I was an self employed as a tutor and primarily saw elementary aged children who were immigrants. We specifically concentrated on spelling, reading and mathematics.
I am a firm believer of repetition. I have many books on grammar, linguistics, writing styles and nonfiction/fiction how to. I accompany any lesson with many resources. My goal is to instill the importance of good sente ... read more
