Individualized learning/teaching for optimal comprehension

I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my teaching style to each individual learner.
I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students ... read more

Seasoned Teacher at Your Service!

As a well-rounded educator, I have had the chance to teach a diverse group of students including those challenged by autism, learning disabilities, noncompliant behavior, and speech impairments, as well as children who functioned on and above grade level. Consequently, I have gained in-depth knowledge of accommodating different styles of learners and incorporating effective methods to meet students’ unique needs. I feel that when we learn and understand the characteristics that make us distinct, then and only then can we truly begin to develop and grow. I encourage student learning by the incorporation of creative learning activities, various forms of technology, hands-on activities, and fun manipulatives. These methods prove to stimulate students’ social, emotional, physical and academic growth. In addition, I utilize these strategies to introduce new concepts, establish a connec ... read more

Summer Tutoring Job

I firmly believe that every child deserves to receive the best education out there. I aspire to share my passion and ambition to learn with my students. Anyone can be a teacher but it takes a person who is nurturing, caring, and devoted to be a good one. Sharing my own experiences with my students will show them we all have hit the bump in the road but we can overcome them. The field of education has provided me with the opportunity to live out my own life-long dream of being a teacher.

More About This Tutor...

Education is a large part of who I am. I have earned two Bachelor degrees, BS in Human Development and Family Studies as well as a BA in Sociology. I initially worked in the field of social work upon graduation which gave me great insight into family life, sociological influences, and the impact of socio-economic factors on education. I feel I am better prepared to deal with the differences and challenges of special education students due to these experiences. During the last four years I have worked as a paraprofessional in special education, tutoring students in subject areas, electives, and as a Job Coach in the community.
My love for learning drives me to do all that I can to make learning fun and motivating for others. I employ Gardner's eight multiple intelligences into my teaching so that material is presented in various ways. This allows students with different learni ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working with students in an effort to achieve growth and increase performance and confidence in phonics and reading skills. In the past, I have administered both formal and informal assessments such as the Woodcock-Johnson III Test of Achievement, the Qualitative Reading Inventory, and the Phonological Awareness Profile. My teaching style is flexible and I am a strong advocate of the VAKT method (visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile). Every student learns differently and I am interested in adapting my teaching style to meet the student’s individual needs.
As a practicing special educator of three years, I have worked with a variety of students at a variety of age-levels (from pre-kindergarten to grade 8). I currently work as an inclusion teacher, where I meet the needs of both the special education as well as non-special education students to teach complex reading ... read more
