20 years of experience as a certified teacher and tutor

My teaching style is dependent upon a student's learning style. Once I determine how the student learns best, I tailor my teaching style to their needs.
I have taught elementary and middle school in small K-12 schools in Thorne Bay, Alaska and Prospect, Oregon. I gained more experience teaching elementary school in the Grants Pass School District as well as the Three Rivers School District in Grants Pass, Oregon. From there I moved to Vancouver, Washington where I taught behavior-disabled elementary students in a self-contained classroom in the Vancouver School District and middle school resource in the Evergreen School District, both of these very large districts.

Taught Kindergarten through 8th grade. Currently, work with students with special needs, developmental delays, autism,dyslexia and dyscalclia. Previous supervisor of a behavior health program for children with special needs and/or who had experienced trauma in their lives. Taught children's theatre for many years and put on exciting productions! Specialize in writing, reading, and wrote a unique app for learning how to read.
Children say that I am so patient and relaxed. One little girl asked me last week, "how come I don't grate on your nerves? My mom says I grate on her nerves." Well, no child has ever "grated on my nerves" :) Children know I care about them and we develop a mutual respect for each other.

Caring Teacher Available to Tutor

I have taught grades K-9 in regular and special education, and for an independent study program. I began as a substitute teacher in Pasadena. Then I moved to the San Fernando valley where I taught English at a private school and Special ed. students at Los Angeles Unified School District. After that, I taught for an independent study charter school and now I'm substitute teaching.
I always find out what the student needs are and then plan instruction to meet them. I break down goals into smaller objectives and make sure that the student/s know what they are. I give a lot of feedback so that the students know how they are doing and how they can improve. I am very patient, caring, and dedicated to the success of my students.

I have a lot of experience working with children, sports wise and education wise. While living in San Francisco for 3 1/2 years i volunteered for about 2 years at an afterschool program in downtown SF. The after school program consisted of children ages 5-15. I am also currently working with children ages 3-16 as a swim instructor at the YMCA. While tutoring i worked with the children's homework in all subjects such as reading and writing.
I love working with children! I have the ability to work with the child's weakness and strengths. I can work around how the child learns, I usually just observe first because I try to teach a child. I think its very important to see what the child's weakness and strengths are first before you try to teach them anything. I believe that all children have different ways on learning and they all have their own time on learning. I don't like for ... read more

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels.
My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child ... read more

I am very patient with students. I am not quick to tell them how to do a problem or what the answer is because the student will never learn how to do it on their own. I allow the student to work through the problem, offering my assistance along the way.
I started tutoring high school students; helping them with anything from test prep to organizational and study skills. I then started tutoring younger children helping them complete their homework, understand their material, and how to study for tests. I have over seven years experience tutoring students and getting results. I love children and helping them succeed in school is my passion.

A Little Bit About Me...

I loved teaching in the classroom setting and will probably go back to that someday, but I have found a real passion and excitement these last two years working one-on-one with students. I enjoy getting to know students, discovering their strengths and weaknesses and using both to help them become lifetime learners. I feel strongly that students who struggle with reading, spelling and comprehension should receive special help at an early age and that the right methods can give them the skills they need to be successful in the future. I look forward to giving students the opportunity to succeed!
I have a bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies with a science concentration and upon finishing my student teaching immediately took a full time job completing the remainder of the school year (March-June 2005) teaching middle school math. In September of 2005 I began teaching middle school sc ... read more
