Special Education is one of my top subjects! Experience with all grade levels K-12

I have worked with student with special needs since 1999. I have been employed with Los Angeles County Office of Education as a teacher who worked with kids with behavior disorders. I have worked as a teacher with kids who have learning handicaps. Presently, I am employed with Norwalk- La Mirada USD as a RSP teacher. I diagnose kids with learning disabilities using various formal and informal assessments. I run small group instruction to provide remediation.
I like to work one-to one or in a small group forum. I am very much interested in the whole child approach.

A Little Bit About Me...

In January of 2012, I gained teaching experience as a part-time English instructor for Korean exchange students (ages ranging from 13 to 17 years old). My responsibility for this job was to provide the students with appropriate exercises and assignments to assist them in improving their English reading skills. I also gave lessons in vocabulary and assignments to help them better understand the proper usage of the vocabulary words. These assignments also served to teach the students about American culture and traditions. In March of 2013, I received my MA in English from CSU, Bakersfield. I also published my first thesis. From May of 2013 to September of 2013, I gained some experience working with children (ages ranging from 6 to 22) with Autism and like disorders as an instructional aide. My responsibility for this job was to provide direct one on one or group instruction ... read more

Reading and Phonics Specialist

I specialize in teaching dyslexic students how to read. I have my BA in English from UC Berkeley and my MA in Teaching Reading and Writing. I have been teaching systematic reading and phonics instruction since 2009, and am very passionate about teaching reading skills. I am experienced in all the major well-researched reading methodologies. With the program I use, I have watched students jump two grade levels in reading within 6 months of instruction. I teach students skills to decode words using phonics, along with the most common sight words in the English language. To improve fluency and reading comprehension, I incorporate texts that are both engaging and challenging for students into the lessons. I also teach students who struggle with spelling, helping them master the most common sound patterns, sight words and sight syllables to greatly improve their spelling. I love what I do ... read more

Special Education is one of my top subjects!

I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.
I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.

My comments on tutoring Special Education : I am currently a special education teacher in the Capistrano Unified School District. I have worked as a special ed. teacher for the past 7 years at the 4/5 grade level and this year at the k-2 level. Prior to that I was an istructional assistant in special education schools for 4 years. I have worked with students with the following qualifying conditions: autism, specific learning disabilities, speech and language imapairments, OHI ( other health impairments) ADD, hearing impaired,cognitive impairments, and emotiona disturbances. My first goal is to develop a trusting relationship with my student/students, find out what internal framework they possess, and identify motivational triggers. I am a Howard Gardner proponent, the developer of the multiple intelligences theory. He states, "The quesion is not if the student is smart but how are they smart." I believe in a whole child approach. Children are not just vessels we are able to pour information into. They are unique and dynamic beings that are affected by their emotions,genetics, and prior experiences. I seek to help them develop the skills that will give them a life of the greatest choice.

Instructional Assistant for the Institute of Effective Education 2000-2003 (behaviorist model)serving emotionally disturbed adolescents Instructional Assistant for Discovery Hills Day Treatment Center 2003-2005 school based program working in tandem with counseling facility. Special Education Teacher, elementary level, in self-contained classroom serving mild to moderate 2006-present.
My teaching approach is eclectic as every child is a different child. One approach does not work for everyone and generally speaking I use a combination of instructional philosophies. No matter what technique, strategy or approach I use, the foundation of my instruction always starts with building a trusting relationship with the child built on caring and respect.

Flexible Tutor ready to work with you!!

Teaching Style varies depending your child’s learning style. Not a “one size” fits all idea. I adapt to them and that way can best see improvement.
I have been in the education department teaching and tutoring for over a decade now, therefore, I will work with each student and help them to the best of my ability. I enjoy seeing students improve their grades and letting me know they feel more confident with testing and homework. Children are the future pillars of society and the future of tomorrow so what they know should be reinforced today. The only way to contact me is at arr1aga@outlook.com or (424) 361-8497 please or I won't be able to read your messages and get back to you thank you!. Thank You!

My teaching experience greatly improved while working as a special education teacher at Bates Middle School as well as a paraprofessional at George Mason High School. Although challenging, working with students with learning difficulties and Explosive personality disorder, ADD / ADHD, students with autism spectrum disorders and children with defiant anti-social behavior has been a stimulating and enriching experience.

Special Education is one of my top subjects! My current career is in Applied Behavioral Analysis and my job is to work with children who are not neurotypical for whatever the reason.

Depends on how the client learns. I spend the first few days probing based on the Applied Behavioral Analysis standard before targeting specific patterns to teach.

All students can learn regardless of their learning style.

I have been teaching for 12 years. I began teaching after graduating from the University of Berkeley with a Bachelors in Sociology. I taught Reading, Math, and Social Studies as a regular education teacher until 2005. In 2005 I began to teach special education students, and this is currently where I teach. I have an Education Specialist credential and I have a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. In addition, I have VPSS certificates in Math and English. I am aware of the SDAIE and DIS strategies that assist students of all levels. My experience as a special education teacher has enabled me to teach all students on all levels. My motto is that all students can learn regardless of their learning styles and it shows in the passion I show all students.
