Reluctant & Struggling Readers can become Good Readers!

I worked for 12 years as a Special Education teacher in the public school system, teaching students with ADD, learning disabilities, autism, Aspergers, emotional and behavior disorders, and mild intellectual disabilities in a resource room and inclusion setting. I am able to quickly make significant connections with the students, building the good rapport that is essential to achieving a good working relationship. I especially enjoy working with reluctant and struggling readers, and nothing makes me happier than to see them overcome the obstacles that have kept them from success.

During high school I worked as a volunteer in St. Petersburg, Florida through All Children’s Hospital. Within the Bedside Buddies Program, I was able to spend over 200 hours working with physically and mentally challenged children to maintain their grades when they were experiencing long staying in the hospital. With this experience under my belt, I pursued my degree in psychology, achieving a BS rather than a BA to exhibit my proficiency for the mathematics and sciences. Having recently graduated and taking time off before applying to graduate school, I would like to maintain my contact with the tutoring and teaching setting, and do my best to change the lives of those that I help.
During college, I swam varsity, an experience that taught me the patience and time management required to balance a rigorous academic schedule with the physical strain of a full-time sport. Later, I fo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Columbus State University, I have been driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a teacher's certification in Special Education. The certification, along with the experience gained, has enabled me to gain an understanding of the disabled and at-risk student.

I would appreciate the opportunity to help your student become successful as well.
My passion is to teach and work with children. Although I believe that all students are capable of learning, I am certain that students learn in different ways. As a good educator, I am charged with the challenge of presenting the lesson so that it suits the students individual learning style. I accomplish this by providing a constructive approach to learning.

More About This Tutor...

My first job out of graduate school was as an adjunct history instructor at Columbus State University. I did all of the planning, lecturing, and grading for my classes. As an instructor, I have had experience proofreading student papers as well as giving suggestions on grammar and format. In my most recent position, I reviewed resumes for clients who were leaving the military and seeking civilian employment. I had to be mindful of correct grammar in civilian and federal resumes. In addition, in both positions, I had to deliver my constructive criticism to my students and clients in a tactful manner so that they would be open to suggestions. I also possess superb public speaking skills and enjoy working with small or larger groups of students/clients.
As an adjunct instructor, I did not only lecture, but also invited guest speakers, assigned group projects, and used films and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

While I hold a Bachelor's in English, I have learned more outside of the college setting than I have in the classroom. I have over ten years experience training and tutoring. I have had the opportunity to train individuals at my place of employment. I also have experience tutoring students one-on-one in various subjects ranging from English to Science and Math. I am currently in the Communications field where the majority of my work involves writing, editing, and preparing documents for training.
My teaching style varies based on the child's needs. I am very adaptable and willing to provide the best method of learning for each individual child. I am patient and pay attention to the child's attitude and non-verbal cues to see where I need to adjust my teaching, even if that means stopping the session for that moment. I believe that I learn how to teach from the child.

I enjoy the diversity and demographics of teaching all age groups. Typically I allow the student to influence the teaching style once a greater understanding of their learning strengths (audio/visual) is determined. Often a variety of methods are required and this is dependant of learning objectives. Above I want the student to benefit from the session/s so feedback is essential. I am a great learner and adaptor to the client's needs.

As a business degree graduate, I am highly trained to communicate in all levels. My skills in writing, communicating, educating in fields like history, and reading are extraordinary.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BS in Elementary Education from Clearwater Christian College.I have had opportunities to work with children of all ages and abilities while I was an assistant principal, curriculum coordinator, and instructor for 2nd-6th grades. During the past 14 years I have tailor individualized learning plan that pinpoints the exact skills and habits that children need to reach their reading goals.
I genuinely want children to learn, understand and develop critical thinking abilities, as well as master content or learn skills. I am easy going and patient. I believe students should be taught with manipulatives and hands on materials.
