Orton Gillingham and Visualizing & Verbalizing Trained!!

I am a classroom teacher at a private school for students with language-based learning disabilities. I work with students in a small group setting and provide them the interventions and support that they need in order to learn to the best of their ability. Differentiation is essential in my job, and I believe every student learns in their own unique way. I am currently trained in Orton Gillingham (a decoding/encoding program which is highly successful for students with language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia) at the Classroom Educator level and am in the process of training for the Associate level. I am also trained in Lindamood-Bell's Visualizing & Verbalizing program.
I am a patient, caring teacher who enjoys making individualized lessons for students in order to help them reach their maximum learning potential. It is my goal to make students feel confident in thems ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked with children of all ages and abilities in a variety of settings throughout high school, college and as a certified Elementary Education Teacher and Reading Specialist for the past seven years. Currently, I am on maternity leave and am looking to provide tutoring services in the areas of Reading, Writing and Mathematics. I have been a first grade teacher for 7 years so I am very interested in working with children at the lower elementary level who may be struggling with reading, writing or math skills.
I will meet with you and your child in order to learn how I can accommodate your child's needs. I will develop and implement a plan that will engage your child in learning and help them improve in the academic areas they are struggling with.

Elementary Education and ESL

A student cannot learn unless he is comfortable and confident. My first priority before teaching is to make sure the student is relaxed and believes he can accomplish the goal. I also like to get to know my student to know what kind of learner he is and what he likes. My teaching style is "delight directed" whenever possible.
In 2001, I received my certification in Elementary Education from CCSU. I then substitute taught for the town of West Hartford for 2 years while I got married and had my son. He had a lot of health problems so the decision was made for me to stay home with him. When it came to Kindergarten he still had many health issues so we thought it was best to keep him home and I began to Homeschool him. Homeschooling has worked well for him and his younger sisters so I have continued even though his health is far better. He is now entering 6th grade. My oldest da ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I don't have much experience tutoring children. I am a freshman at Western New England University majoring in elementary educating with a focus in math. I always had a very good understanding for math and was always good working with other kid and helping them learn the subject. I was a student aid in my senior year trigonometry class and always helped students with their work. I am willing to work in other aspects of education as well.

Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what they feel hinders their success. I choose activities that make learning fun while making the information relevant and easy to understand. I also strive to build up a student's academic confidence. I believe all students can be successful in anything they put their mind to, sometimes it may take longer for the light bulb moment but I am willing to do anything I can to ensure they reach the point where they fully understand what they are learning and can apply their knowledge not just recite it.
I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would b ... read more

Talent Development Tutoring

I have led several workshops about differentiation and developmentally appropriate practices for early childhood educators and parents over the last couple of years. I have been tutoring for elementary aged students for ten years now. Parents have seen real academic gains through the tutoring approach I take. To overcome areas of difficulty I follow children’s interests and talents. For some children I use Montessori didactic teaching materials to extend students learning. I maintain ongoing records of assessment and observation’s for each child that I tutor for. A typed report about tutoring activities and student progress is given to each parent for each tutoring session. I communicate with parents each tutoring session and establish a liaison with each student’s classroom teacher.
My teaching aspirations and love for learning have led me to this tutoring opportunity to help ch ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal is to help your child achieve success. I explain real-life applications of the subject (i.e., metric system--repair of foreign cars.) I encourage questions and dialogue. I use praise when warranted but am firm on deadlines and honesty. Aware of attention span, I take appropriate breaks or switch to another subject. I remind him to read and follow directions and to check his work over before he hands it in. I believe that in this fast-paced technical age your child needs the best chance possible to compete successfully. I have found that even with one exposure, a good educator can have a huge positive impact upon a student's confidence and comprehension. It is very gratifying to both student and teacher when this occurs.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having graduated college with my BA in psychology in the concentration of child and youth, I have been blessed with the opportunities to work in the educational feel for the past 4 years. I have worked as an associate instructor teaching ages 11-15 and I currently work as a teacher assistant amongst special needs youth. I also have a great deal of experience tutoring in math, reading, and english for elementary aged youth.
I enjoy teaching and more importantly seeing youth succeed through small strides. I am a teacher and love to help students see that all things are achievable. I encourage youth to practice the material that they may receive and study it as well. I will go over material multiple times until the student has been able to really understand what they are doing. I allow my patience and humbleness to lead my teaching.
