Personalized tutoring to fit your learning style

I am well organized and creative. I will take into account the interests of the child to make learning personalized and fun. In a classroom I try to balance teacher directed and child directed instruction and all learning styles. As a tutor, I will determine how the student best learns to personalize their learning.
I have been a certified teacher for 10 years. I have worked in preschools and substituted prior to returning to college for a teaching degree. I have worked with children since I was a child including those with disabilities both physical and learning. I have a son with a learning disability. I have worked with children with Autism. When substituting, I worked at all Elementary grade levels and all special classes (PE, Art, Music, Sped). The last 2 years I taught English as a second language to pre-k and kindergarten students in the Middle East.

Teacher and Tutor: Certified

I am an certifed educator with over 7 years experience working with children in grades K-12 with learning needs. I have one-on-one and small group tutoring experience as well. I am certified in Special Education (P-12) and Elementary Education (P-5). I have experience teaching grades K-5, 6 - 8 and high school. I also have experience with children with special needs in the areas of dyslexia, dysgraphia, autism, Asperger's, EBD, SLD and many others.
I teach with the child's needs at the forefront of the learning plan. I believe everyone has the ability to learn but must learn in their own way with patience and nurturing.

Enriching and Inspiring Tutor

Throughout the last 17 years, I have worked as a General and Special Education teacher. As a Special Education teacher, I have mentored other educators, lead leadership teams and coordinated staff development workshops for educators. I have also tutored students in Pre-K through 12th grade in a private learning center and through in-home environments. My educational methods focus on praise and positive reinforcement. My teaching approach incorporates hands-on learning methods that foster a strong understanding of academic content while building confidence. I would love the opportunity to speak with you today about scheduling a tutoring session on-line or at a location of your choice.

My personal style varies on the pupil. These may vary from simply being frustrated with the curriculum to a myriad of influences. My style is considered out of the box, meaning that if the standard method does not "click" with him/her, then I enjoy finding something of interest to them, to relate that to the subject at hand. Keeping a students interest is paramount to keep them enthusiastic about learning.
Along with a Bachelor's Degree in Business, I have many educational experiences in the area of science, math, history (to name a few). And in all levels of the educational process; from elementary through high school and even collegiate. My previous experience has included high school students and many college undergrads.

The Eccentric Mrs. B

I have taught and sought many differnt subjects. Ranging from political to scientific. From far outside the box creative thinking to close examination of the traditional. I attended UW Baraboo for almost three years and then went on to UW Milwaukee to continue my education for my masters in Sociology.
I am very hands on. I like to utilize visual and aural aids. The more senses you have engaged I feel the more you will retain the information.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, and 5th Grade. I am certified K-6th grade. I also taught advanced and Intermediate math and language arts in a GED/HiSet program. I currently teach ESOL/CIVICS for an Adult School.

My teaching philosophy starts out with essentialism which believes in a strong core curriculum and high academic standards. I believe it is important to have a strong foundation on which to build upon. After ensuring a strong foundation I tend to lean more towards progressivism. I believe students should be taught what is relevant today while becoming more independent learners, by utilizing problem solving skills and critical thinking. I teach the foundation and build upon that based upon what is relevant in a particular field today. I also include student-centered teaching strategies. I believe in order to learn a student must have base knowledge of a subject that leads into hands on assignments which require mastery of a subject. Students must have both of these in order to truly master what they are learning. I also believe that team based learning is essential today. It is i ... read more

Reading is one of my top subjects! I am trained in Wilson Reading, Orton Gillinham, and Lindamood Bell.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I've been reading since I was 4!

I have tutored my friend's daughter in math and English. I have assisted her with science and social studies projects. Her ADHD can inhibit the learning process, but we are able to work through the problems. Learning about weighted blankets helped me work with her. She is a kinetic learner. my nieces are both visual learners. I have to adapt to each learning style.
Teaching brings me pleasure. What I do is to show them, help them, then have them do whatever I am teaching them to do. Sometimes one of the steps may have to be repeated, but this process really works well.
