My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : In my experience as a special education teacher and administrator, I have learned that children need to learn methods to give their learning structure and meaning. Sometimes this takes time to find methods that work. I am very patient and am used to getting creative and trying out many methods of teaching to find the child's learning style.

I have been a Special Education Teacher for 15 years and an administrator for 5 years. I have taught at both the elementary, intermediate and high school levels. I have worked with students who have been severely cognitively disabled and those that have had multiple attention and behavioral concerns. I am very patient and have been able to create systems to provide structure to keep kids on track. I always want children to know what to expect and have a structure in which to be successful.
I believe my patience and creativity allows children to feel comfortable with their own learning needs. I work with them and help them find their unique learning style. We then build on that style to build their confidence and ability. All children can learn once we find their unique learning "channel".

Fun & Engaging Experienced Math & Science Teacher ??

I love to teach/tutor math and science and to bring joy and excitement to the learning process. I use a variety of strategies including math manipulatives and kinesthetic movement to help my students understand the concepts and relationships inherent in mathematics. My goal is to inspire your child to learn on their own and to develop the skills to be self sufficient in their math and science learning, and so I hope the time comes when my services are no longer needed and your child is self sufficient.
I am a middle school math and science teacher in a top school district with experience in grades 5th through 8th. I have experience working with a wide variety of students ranging from students with difficulties in understanding mathematics and students with learning disabilities to advanced learners.

ADD/ADHD is one of my top subjects! Extensive work with K-3rd grade students with special needs

My greatest accomplishment as an educator is having made a difference in the lives of students by helping them achieve.... and by being available along the learning pathway to push, nudge, encourage, push some more - and then celebrate the learning accomplishments, large and small! I have many areas of expertise, and a wide degree of experiences from which to draw. I am now taking early retirement from full-time teaching, so I am available to work with students in small groups or 1:1 to continue to be a part of this amazing field of TEACHING!!

Each student is unique. Therefore, I use a variety of teaching styles, strategies, methods and techniques depending on the individual's needs and abilities. A special needs student may need hands on lessons or visual learning activities. Someone else may be an audio learner. I analyze the situation, differentiate between teaching strategies and implement the most effective one. My success goes beyond the actual lessons or my experience. It's is due to the fact that I truly love teaching, thrive on the positive interactions and maintain high expectations for myself and the student. I am very flexible, patient and knowledgeable. I strive to meet the needs of the students in order for them to be successful and confident.
I began teaching 22 years ago at a middle school and later taught high school when I relocated to the beach. I also tutored at a local community college. The ... read more
