I understand the differences in learning styles and take the time to understand your unique needs. I do not prescribe just one method to teach you; I have the experience to synthesize different methods to create a unique plan for you or your child. I combine tactile, auditory, and visual modalities to create a holistic approach that is tailored to your specific needs. I use multi-sensory instruction in everything.
I am compassionate, enthusiastic, and highly experienced! I possess a professional degree with certifications, and have had over 7 years of experience working with students that have special needs. I serve kindergarten through adult. With my background in Education and my specialization in Special Education, I have worked with numerous children AND adults that have experienced academic frustration.

More About This Tutor...

I earned two bachelor degrees from the University of North Carolina in December of 2007. From there, I chose to move to Massachusetts to participate in a ground breaking fellowship at MATCH Charter Public High School. I chose this alternate route to receiving teaching certification because of the classroom experience it provided me. In addition to earning certification and completing student teaching hours, I tutored for 20-30 hours a week in all subject areas in grades 9, 10, and 11. My favorite subjects to tutor are reading, writing, history, and biology.
I am a passionate teacher and tutor. I believe that there is not a minute to waste when working with youth, and I like to conduct vigorous tutorials and well-paced classes. I believe that everyone has a different learning style, and this is why tutoring is such an integral supplement to classroom teaching. I enjoy getting to kno ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 22 years of experience working with children in preschool to 3rd grade. I am currently the disabilities coordinator for a Head Start program, helping children and families access special education services and navigating the special education world. I always chose, in my professional career as a teacher, to work with diverse children and those with special needs. As the parent of a learning disabled child I understand the frustration, worry and concern you have as a parent when you know your child is not reaching her full potential. My teaching style, philosophy and experience can help your child to succeed, improving his confidence in his abilities and setting him up to be a life long learner.
I believe that children deserve to be children first. Before they are "students," before they are labeled as “learning disabled” or “gifted,” children deserve to honor the cri ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that creating a warm learning environment and a good relationship with a student is the first step to successful learning. When a student trusts and respects their teacher, they feel safe to make mistakes, which is a wonderful way to learn. I believe that each child has his or her own learning style and way of making connections in order to create a deep understanding. I work hard to foster each of my students learning by keying into their personal way of retaining and comprehending information. I realize that learning something new can be frustrating if it isn’t coming easy. Children need to have an understanding supporter that will help them see their small achievements in order to build their confidence and achieve great heights.
After graduating from Purdue University I wanted to challenge what I had learned and how I would apply that in my own classroom. I was ... read more

I believe that all children are capable of achieving academic success and that it is necessary to find the right teaching method in able to help them to reach their highest potential. I understand that many children learn differently than from the methods taught in schools and I am willing to work with them until we figure out how it is that they learn best. I believe in a “hands on” approach that makes learning fun. I push for good work, but I create a relaxed environment while giving children the encouragement that they need in order to help them meet their goals and improve their self-esteem.
As a Magna Cum Laude graduate from a well-rounded liberal arts college, I feel that I have been given the credentials to assist students with needs in almost any subject. I completed college level course work in not only my areas of study, but also in each of the scholastic disciplines in o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My experience began as a tutor in college and upon graduating I taught eighth grade science, high school sciences (biology, physical and earth), community college level biology (I and II) and biotechnology. I have a MS in Biology (research/thesis and study focus in biochemistry) and have tutored students in mathematics and English. I have experience teaching exceptional children (TBI, ADD, ADHD, BD, AG or GT) and volunteered with Head Start for years.
As a tutor my initial focus is identifying the students strengths and applying them when addressing areas where the student has a deficit. It is important to motivate the student in order to give confidence in their ability to face academic challenges. The key is to establish or enhance the foundation of student learning by developing a positive relationship with developing dependency. It is also important that the student develo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While the majority of my instruction is direct and explicit, I find that many times, my students thrive on working problems out by indirect questioning. They find themselves empowered and feel a part of their own education when they are led to the correct response.
Although I started my association with education as a teacher assistant for special education, I quickly grew to love the field and pursued my licensure in special education. I have worked as a teacher for learners with autism within the self-contained setting and I currently provide special education services for students in a resource setting.

More About This Tutor...

During my housmanship in Omdurman Hospital in Sudan I was assigned the task of tutoring medical students during their clinical clerkship period. It was a rewarding experience as it boosted my skill in teaching what I had learned. I enjoyed working with children during my pediatric rotation back in Sudan and I gained a lot of skills for how to best approach them. After I came to the USA and during my preparation to qualify as a doctor, I gained a lot of extra knowledge in biological sciences.
I believe that teaching children is a noble job. I realized that children have an instinctual readiness to learn quickly, but they need someone who knows how to approach them well and efficiently. Presenting the information in the easiest way possible and in an illustrative way was the method that made my students very satisfied with my tutoring

A Little Bit About Me...

When I completed my degree in English, I happily took on every challenge set before me as a teacher. Therefore, I have a plethora of experience to offer any student who needs extra assistance in both English (literature and writing) as well as literacy and ESL. Due to my diverse skills, I not only teach AP English IV, but I also teach the decoding strand of SRA's corrective reading program which can provide instruction for a diverse population of students. Additionally, four years prior to becoming a teacher, I was a tutor in the English department at North Carolina Central University. I tutored in all aspects of writing and literature. In fact, I also became a literacy tutor in several communities in both Durham and Raleigh, NC.
I enjoy both teaching and tutoring. I have a passion for helping those who require multiple levels of assistance with sever facets of the English language ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a very patient person, a trait which I believe is very beneficial for a tutor to possess. I am always patient when teaching, and in doing so have succeeded in getting my point across. I like to pass on small tricks and acronyms that I have came up with for many things, some of which I have still retained to this day for my own personal use, not just for school work.
Since I am an engineering student, I have always been interested and excelled in math and science, so I have tutored many kids in all areas of science and mathematics. I have also tutored in Spanish and French. Last year, I worked with a young man who had dyslexia. I have helped kids of all ages, whether at the elementary, high school, or collegiate level.

During my time at Duke I enjoyed rigorous pre-medical subjects like biology and chemistry, but my interests also include English and psychology. I graduated cum laude in May 2009 with B.A. degrees in Pre-Med and English/History/Psychology. More importantly, I have tutored biology, writing/grammatical skills, English, psychology, and chemistry to a wide range of students—from college to elementary aged. I hope to put my 4 years of tutoring experience to work for you!
I enjoy being with people! I envision our discussions as part of an exciting collaboration to capitalize upon your strengths and learn in the most effective, efficient, and fun way. We will learn collaboratively to insure you understand what WE have talked about before I leave. I will break down abstract concepts into simple examples and respond to your feedback immediately in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began 'teaching' as the head wakeboarding instructor at Coble Ski School in Lillington, NC, when I was a junior in high school. Shortly thereafter I took a position working at a beach resort in Pensacola, FL, where I spent an entire summer instructing surfing, kayaking and sailing. At Duke I tutored during each of my four years, either biweekly at a local Durham elementary school or at the Emily K Family Life Center. It is there where I tutored once weekly as a senior, up until I graduated in May. I have tutored in all subjects and all ages up through 22.
When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their fav ... read more
