Dyslexia Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Nocatee, FL

Upon enrolling my children in school, I decided to be an active part of their education. So, I assisted their teachers with everything I could. Eventually, I became a trusted part of the school system (an honorary teacher, so to speak). They began giving me more responsibilities, concerning the children of the school. I tutored hundreds of students to increase their FCAT results, single-handedly; I corrected documents, daily; I worked on setting up the computers for the teachers and students, and I trained both to use them. I even learned magic, so that I could help teach the students their studies, in a fun and exciting way. Previously, I opened my own computer shop, and thus, I had a tremendous advantage of all sorts of software, and Internet knowledge, that would help educate the students. Since I had an ADHD student at home (my son,) I was quite active with the ESE program. I helped

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.

It is very important to find out what skills sets a child needs to be reinforced. The activities the student engages in must be based on his strengths and weaknesses. I believe in working with the student to explain their thought process. I do this by asking questions and helping them realize how to attack a task. I find the student by verbalizing what they are thinking is able to progress at a faster rate. This helps the student self confidence and the way they feel about themselves. I am looking forward to sharing the skills which were developed over 30 years of teaching. My elementary classroom experience includes teaching grades 2,3,4,5 and 6. The successful experiences I had working with learning disabled students, unmotivated students, and gifted students brought me much satisfaction. One on my strengths is my ability to motivate and inspire students with different learning

I taught public school in Florida from K-12 for the last 16 years. I taught for more than 10 years in the private school. I am still teaching part-time at a private company. My passion for teaching and the diverse subjects and levels of students that I have taught are two of my great assets that can be very useful in the tutoring profession. I teach to help my student reach his or her highest potential. Depending on the subject I use a highly academic and focussed style of teaching. If it is communication like English, Writing and Journalism , I use a lot of teacher-generated materials. I am very flexible and would like to meet the needs of a particular student by administering some kind of a skill inventory survey to identify his or her style of learning. An inventory of his interests and skills will also be a good tool for me to assess the student's strengths.

As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I am here in Florida I want to continue to tutor, mentor, and foster educational improvement. I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of diffe
