My daughter is special needs and I have worked very closely with all of her teacher's and special needs advocate throughout the years which has given me many opportunities to get very familiar with the work that is done year after year. Again, my daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia at a very young age and it just gave us a way of teaching her a new way of learning and living. She is unique just like I believe every child is and they all need to understand how they can achieve greatness in learning because every child can. With dyslexia it's about organization and seeing things differently than the average person. I believe that every child is unique and they each have their own style of learning which means that I feel that it is best to speak and observe a child to see what style best suits that child's needs this every child can excel feeling comfortable and not overwhelmed.

When I work with students, I approach them with a positive attitude emphasizing their strengths while working on their weaknesses as well. An excellent rapport is also needed for their success and this occurs due to my positive attitude looking for a student's strengths. Our sessions are focused but can be fun as well. With a positive approach, students are motivated and attentive. A major component of our tutoring sessions is to teach students to be his/her own self advocate and "learn how to learn." I also believe that communicating with the students' parents, if the student is a child or young adult, is critical to his/her success.

I began teaching preschool in 1992 and absolutely loved it. I moved to Florida and began teaching and tutoring shortly after. I started my public school teaching career in a Title 1 elementary school. I taught all subject areas with much success. During my time there, I worked in regular ed. classes and in inclusion classes where I gained experience teaching through a variety of strategies. During this time, I also tutored at a learning center and participated in an after school tutorial program. This program was extremely successful in raising student achievement. In 1999, I left the school department to open a preschool with my family. There I taught preschool, ran the afterschool program and fulfilled administrative duties. I longed to be back in the classroom, so in 2004 I returned to the school department. I have been teaching an accelerated 4th grade class ever since. I wo

Every child can learn, but not all learn at the same rate or in the same manner. My style is to determine the need each student has academical
