John S. - Redfield, AR 72132 (18.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I have worked with children for over 15 years in all areas of academic work, at all levels of proficiency. My students are successful in not only their academic work, but also in life through confidence building into the students. I enjoy the challenge of finding the path to achievement for individual students and have had great success in transforming the attitudes toward education for many students through after-school programs and initiatives I have pioneered.

Gwen R. - White Hall, AR 71602 (19.8 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Experienced in tutoring the Barton Reading and Spelling System up to and including level 5. This is by far the most effective way to close the gap in reading and spelling for most students. There is so much joy in success, no matter how small or how hard to obtain. It is always to be celebrated!!!! I have worked in two Arkansas public schools in the area of Special Education for the last 20 years. For over half of my career I have been employed as a special education designee/ consultant. I have also completed the Barton Reading and Spelling System training and work with several students. I am in love with how fast this system works to close gaps. I currently am employed as a special education designee where I tutor a few students in Barton, teach and supervise the special education teachers and work on due process compliance. I have three children of my own with sensory, attentio

Laura G - Hot Springs, AR 71913 (22 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $38.50/hr.
After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in English, I married and worked at support jobs while helping to raise our two children. Upon finding myself a single parent, I decided to return to school and pursue my passion for learning and working with children by obtaining my Masters in Special Education. I have since had the opportunity to work with general education students while teaching Middle School English.. From there I have worked with alternative, at-risk students, emotionally disturbed students and physically disabled students. During the last 9 1/2 years I have taught English, reading, science, social studies and math. My philosophy of education is a student centered one. I strongly relate to the adage of serving as the “guide on the side” rather than the “sage on the stage.” I believe in focusing on individual needs, involving and motivating the students in the process of their learn

Brandon M - Little Rock, AR 72202 (27 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have a strong constructivist teaching style: I do my best to connect a student's prior knowledge and experiences to new knowledge in order to build on his or her experience, thereby creating a foundation for intrinsic learning. My reading lessons are technically rigorous, but are supplemented with frequent discussion to check for understanding. I abide by the principle "first accuracy, then speed." In all subjects, I strive for student mastery and maximum comprehension. While enrolled in the teacher certification program with Hendrix College, I mentored/tutored an eighth grader in various subjects. I enjoyed the one-on-one experience thoroughly and quickly returned to tutoring at Arkansas School for the Blind. During my three years of employment with ASB, I improved ACTAAP reading scores of two students with reading/learning impairments after one year of tutoring sessions from Be

Darla G - Cabot, AR 72023 (45.2 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I love to teach children and find it both a challenge as well as an inspiration. When teaching I find it necessary to determine the learning styles of each student as well as areas of interest. Once these have been determined it is much easier to determine the areas of academic needs and teach according to how they best learn. Learning should not be seen as a chore but rather as an opportunity to succeed in life. Whenever possible I include technology into the curriculum to enhance teaching. If teaching a large class it may be necessary to break into small groups to focus on the needs of certain students while providing enrichment activities for others. Positive reinforcement is the key to a student becoming more confident. During the last twelve years I have worked within the public school system in both Arkansas and Florida. Between 1998 and 2000 I worked as a substitute for the
