Providing Positive Strategies for Success!

I have taught in both the public and private school sectors. I have been teaching Special Education since 1999. I owned a learning center for children on the Autism spectrum as well as own my own tutoring business~Special Effects Tutoring. I provide tutoring, advocacy, and professional development in the Collin County area of Texas. I have participated in professional development and continue to work with children and families, along with support specialists, to provide a comprehensive and collaborative service.
I believe in adapting my teaching style based on individual learning styles. I use a multi-sensory approach along with positive reinforcement. Each child I work with is unique and in order to be successful it is imperative to build a rapport with the child and the family.

A Little Bit About Me...

Brain-based, student-centered
I'm Ebony! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's in Cognitive Studies and Education, and earned a Master's degree with distinction in Curriculum and Instruction. I am a Cognitive Specialist/neuroeducator whose sole objective is bridging the divide between the student and the content, using methods based on the individual's learning style. As I think back to when I have achieved most success as a student, it was always because of a phenomenal educator who taught the content in ways that appealed to my learning style. I was immersed in the content, and I thrived because of it. I provide the same instructional strategies and experiences for my students, who vary from children with neurological differences such as Autism, Dyslexia, and other learning differences, to gifted students, to adults who never learned how to read or perform mathematics.

Learning can be fun and exciting; it's all in our attitude!

I love working with students and my style is direct teaching; I feel that a student needs to master the concept being taught before moving on to the next level.
I have been in education for 18 years. I started in special education and general education. I taught math, English, reading, science, and history. I also taught the GED and the state test (CA). I tutored all subjects to homebound students. I facilitated reading programs and held workshops for teachers that taught special needs students. I was also a high school counselor for 5 years and have my credential in school psychology

ELAR Teacher: Getting your child engaged & invested!

Unorthodox is the best way to describe my teaching style. Unorthodox in that I will change my approach or activities based on student comprehension. Unorthodox in that I truly believe that for every student who is confused or doesn’t understand a concept, there is a teacher who didn’t do their job. My greatest strength lies in creating lessons and activities where students will want to engage. Engagement leads to a permanent investment. When a student is engaged by a lesson, they will remember that lesson. To introduce Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” my students played "Who's crazier: Edgar Allan Poe or Mrs. W’s Mom or Dad???” After reading a series of statements such as: “Removed tires from daughter’s car for talking back” “Married his first cousin,” students would guess if it was Poe or my mom/dad. The level of participation in class that day and the days that followed wa ... read more

Dyslexia is one of my top subjects! I was diagnosed with dyslexia as a 1st grader. I had multiple tutors to assist me in reading and writing. I believe that people with dyslexia are some of the smartest people in the world. The only thing standing in their way is a system that helps them learn and achieve success. I will help find a way to develop your extremely talented and gifted brain into a system that works. I can also help develop your confidence. I am happy to discuss other resources that could help with learning that are outside my realm and get you those resources in a timely, cost efficient manner. I believe that whatever your goal is, it is achievable. If Richard Branson can rule Virgin with severe dyslexia, you can concur your dream and more.

Each student is different. I am dyslexic. Finding ways for each student to make the light bulb go off is such a joy. I believe in doing. Whether it is going to the hospital and talking with an experienced nurse or provider on difficult subjects or starting lines on me or any willing participants, whatever will help you learn. If it means going to as a greenhouse and seeing fractals in real life or finding geometrically forms in downtown Dallas and turning those into problems to solve. We could go to a department store, pick out a garment and make a pattern from it and then sew, fit and wear it. We could even speak with HR on what they want in a resume. I will always find a way to help you learn.
I am excited to teach others about my passions and help develop a learning system that will work for the student. I have a Bachelor Degree in Nursing. I worked in Cardiac ICU, Onc ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an experienced Plano ISD teacher I have had the opportunity to provide students with effective instruction to meet their individual needs. I have taught all subjects in third grade for nine years. For the past five years I have also been teaching the advanced math class. I specialize in TAKS test preparation, Reading, Math, and Writing.
I believe that children learn best when they are having fun. My goal as an educator is to instill a love of learning in students. If a child can take ownership of his or her learning, they will reach a greater level of comprehension and retain what they have learned.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy the wonders of discovery and assisting others with master concepts and practical logic that helps them in every aspect of their lives. Tutoring is not so simply as to aid a child in finding the answer or getting a college student to pass the examine. It is truly the disciplined approach to knowledge and truth that allows one to branch into new facets of understanding and truth. To tutor means to assist another in seeking real truth and understanding that will allow success and confidence to build.
I have a passion for language and rhetoric. Words, truth, knowledge, and exploration have marked my academic career. I studied with two colleges during my Associate years in order to obtain lessons in Japanese. I took my passion for language into history with pursuits in Latin and Greek while attending the College of Saint Thomas More. I have offered consistent and helpful tutorin ... read more
