Hearing Impaired Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Peace Dale, RI

I believe that every student is a unique individual that has the ability and desire to learn. Ultimately, my goal is for each one of my students to reach his or her full potential in life and become a productive citizen of our world. I feel that a child learns best through play. For this reason, my lessons and activities will use fun manipulatives and eye-catching visuals. By using a variety of tools and anchor charts, I will appeal to auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners. I feel that taping into all 8 types of intelligences is important to the development of the whole child. As a tutor I eagerly welcome the responsibility to develop each and every student into a compassionate, ambitious and intellectual human beings. As a recent graduate of Salve Regina University, I am eager to continue my work with early childhood and elementary students. I have volunteered in a Head Start pres

I enjoy working with children and have experience tutoring children of various ages and levels of ability. I know that each child learns in a different way and I'm able to adjust my teaching style accordingly. My job duties include tutoring students in all subject areas, as well as helping to manage behaviors. I have much experience in working with students who have difficulties comprehending coursework, and often act out behaviorally during these times. I also have training in de-escalation strategies to help students learn skills to cope both educationally and emotionally. I earned my BA in English from Rhode Island College and took extensive coursework in Computer Information Systems. Since 2001, I have been working at Bradley Hospital in East Providence. As of April 2003, I have been working in a self-contained special education classroom for students with developmental disab

As a progressive educator, I believe in attainment of the standard benchmarks by individualized methods, utilitizng a spectrum of teaching modalities. My personal affect is cheerful and professional, although I believe that learning should be fun, and with me, it is. Prior to my second career in the field of service to at-risk senior citizens, I taught English for four years at Westport High School. Following the reduction in force made necessary by budgetary constraints, I taught for ten years at the Crystal Springs School in Assonet, MA as a Special Needs teacher. While rewarding, I missed the challenge of more literary pursuits and began teaching evening classes at a local communuity-based organization. My tutoring experience had its inception in that setting.

My philosophy is that education should be as individualized as possible because people do not learn in the same manner. For instance, some people are visual learners while others, like myself, are auditory learners. I strongly believe that educators should expose their students to as many fields and ideas as possible. For instance, when I am teaching, I prefer to instruct students on different topics- biology, culture and rules of the English language are particular favorites of mine. I also like to give ideas and explanations that are different than my own (when teaching abstract concepts, of course) so that students can formulate their own opinions. I have recently graduated from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. While attending university, I studied various courses- natural science, social science, criminal justice, biology- but my true passion lies in foreign langua

In May 2008, I received my BA in Elementary Education and Sociology. Upon graduating, I took a summer job working as an Aid for a Collaborative Program. In December 2008, I was hired as a Severe and Profound Special Education Teacher for the collaborative. I worked with students with a wide range of diagnoses including Autism and Intellectual Impairments. I learned to adapt my lessons to students with a wide range of abilities. I often created individualized lessons and worksheets that catered to the needs of each student. I am currently working on my Master’s Degree in Severe and Profound Special Education. I believe that in order to be a truly exceptional teacher, one must put an effort into getting to know their students as an individual. It is important to design lessons that will compliment a student's personal learning style and reflect their interests. I think that learning

As a recent graduate from Framingham State College, I have chosen to dedicate my life to helping others learn. I have chosen to teach young children because I aim to create the foundation for loving to learn in their early years to build upon in their future years.

I am currently obtaining my Connecticut Teaching License for Nursery to 3.
