Individualized Assistance

I have helped a number of adults & children improve in math, reading, writing and study skills. Generally a client should meet for three hours a week for best results. Tutoring in most subject areas at all grade levels from elementary through college is available. I can work with the student for the entire semester or school year, or I can help the student through a challenging topic.
Today’s fast paced school curriculum overwhelms an alarming number of students, essentially hindering their progress as a whole by failing to make sure one concept is properly learned before the next is taught. But I make sure that they are comfortable with each and every problem before encouraging them to move on to the next. This way they retain essential information that will adequately prepare them for review and lessons to come. They will be grateful to see an improvement in their grades and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is a combination of visual, and kinesthetic. Most of the students I have worked with in the past who are learning disabled learn best by seeing and doing( hands-on ) It works best for these students if they are able to see the work being presented and then try it themselves. In reading, I tend to like to have the student read a small section of the paragraph and describe a few things that stuck out in their mind. ( Create a picture ) For younger students I may actually have them draw what they read.
I have 30+ years of teaching experience. I have worked with a wide variety of students from elementary age to adult learners. I am certified in special education, gifted education, elementary education, and have a master's degree in educational psychology. I have helped adult learners and at-risk youth earn their GEDs. I have worked with autistic, SLD, and ID students ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teachers are considered as professionals and should carry themselves accordingly. It is not the salary which drives true teacher: it's the love for the children which are in their care. Children today face many challenges which can take their focus from learning. It is my desire to help children in school feel comfortable and safe as well as excited about learning. I want to be able to set positive examples for my children. I know that there will be a lot of materials that have to be covered, I also know that some children need more time to grasp certain concepts,this is where teachers have to be patient and gentle. My concerns for education are why I want to use every available resource afforded to me to help each child learn.
I have worked with children ages 0-8 years old. Reading and Language Arts are my strongest subjects. I am also working Kids-N-Technology once a week as ... read more
