Reluctant & Struggling Readers can become Good Readers!

I worked for 12 years as a Special Education teacher in the public school system, teaching students with ADD, learning disabilities, autism, Aspergers, emotional and behavior disorders, and mild intellectual disabilities in a resource room and inclusion setting. I am able to quickly make significant connections with the students, building the good rapport that is essential to achieving a good working relationship. I especially enjoy working with reluctant and struggling readers, and nothing makes me happier than to see them overcome the obstacles that have kept them from success.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated high school in 2008. I then attended West Ga Tech., for over a year. I majored in technical communications and took numerous computer classes. I love computers and Math. Those are my two favorite subjects but I am pretty well rounded, there's not much I can't do. I'm very self motivated and enjoy helping people better themselves. I work full time right now as a staffing agent, helping people get jobs. I'm only 22 recently out of college so most of the school subjects are still fresh in my memory.

My teaching style depends on the students needs. I believe students learn in different ways. I try to make sure my teaching styles fit the students I am working with. I believe that all students can benifit from hands on learning. I enjoy teaching in a hands on manner.
I have had a lot of experience in several Georgia school systems. I have taught, student taught, and substituted. I have done long term substituting a couple times. I have tutored several students. I studied education at Columbus State University. I have experience in elementary, middle, and high school. I have the most experience at the elementary and middle school levels though.

I have expectations that the student wants to learn and to achieve. I have all the time in the world for those who make the effort. Having lived overseas on two occasions and having run several businesses in many environments, I have a diversified experience base to relate authentic examples to the educational setting. I believe the best learning comes from active participation rather than passive observance.

More About This Tutor...

With a BA in Middle Grades Education, I began my teaching career 10 years ago. All ten years have been in 8th grade math, teaching pre-algebra, algebra, and advanced algebra. I have also tutored lower grades and just completed tutoring an adult, from algebra through pre-calculus, who also wants to begin her career as a teacher. I spent 6 years in the Marines and many years working in other fields such as medical and insurance, which I have found to be great resources to connect math to real life.
Teaching children and adults has always been a passion of mine. My many years of working in various jobs before I became a teacher has given me many resources to pull from to make math come to life. It has also taught me that each student is different and may not understand the concepts presented in the same way, so I am always ready to explain things in many different ways to be sure a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BS in Elementary Education from Clearwater Christian College.I have had opportunities to work with children of all ages and abilities while I was an assistant principal, curriculum coordinator, and instructor for 2nd-6th grades. During the past 14 years I have tailor individualized learning plan that pinpoints the exact skills and habits that children need to reach their reading goals.
I genuinely want children to learn, understand and develop critical thinking abilities, as well as master content or learn skills. I am easy going and patient. I believe students should be taught with manipulatives and hands on materials.

More About This Tutor...

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn.
With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals an ... read more

It is most important to communicate respect and find natural ways to empower each student so that they feel good about their ability to meet the goals ahead. I encourage critical thinking and often use picture and story associations to improve memory recall. It is important to me that your child is guided to discover the right answer rather than just giving them the answer in efforts to save time. As a result of this teaching style, it appears that I have a strength in helping students prepare for exams and several parents have asked me to home school their children and even volunteered to recruit more parents.
For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development.
My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require ... read more
