Amy M. - Oakland, CA 94605 (2.5 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $90.00/hr.
Many of my students struggle with this learning issue, but can overcome and learn how to navigate with it! I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativi

LeAnn R. - Menlo Park, CA 94025 (16.4 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $30.00/hr.
Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just instruct. I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their full p

Adrienne S - Walnut Creek, CA 94596 (12.3 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $45.50/hr.
For the last two years I have worked as a tutor with elementary aged children on phonemic awareness, comprehension, improving analytical ability, and basic math skills. While teaching and tutoring, I incorporate the child's prior knowledge while introducing new concepts through hands-on, child centered curriculum. I develop tricks, with help from the child, which will help them retain the information learned.
During the day, I am an elementary substitute teacher. Prior to getting my degree, I was a preschool teacher and nanny. I believe that every child is an individual with a distinctive story. Embracing such stories, I will make a profound difference on my students. Validating students’ abilities, experiences, and interests creates a trusting atmosphere. My role as teacher is to guide my students into authentic learning. For students to construct knowledge, they need the opportunity

Kathy R - Richmond, CA 94804 (14.1 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I love to tutor because it gives me an opportunity to help students build their skills and to teach them that they have the ability to learn anything,they want to learn and are willing to put their mind, determination and dedication into. I strongly believe that most if not all students are capable of learning anything they truely desire to learn, if they are willing to work hard and be determined to acquire the knowledge. I believe that this is possible with a teacher or tutor that has the skills and dedication to transfer their knowledge or drive for knowledge to their students. My Teaching Style is to build a relationship with the student and their family. That is based on trust, confidence and a great deal of praise. Everyones performance is driven by the encouragement that they get on a daily basis. So a very important part of my teaching style is to include the whole family. As wel

Karen R - El Sobrante, CA 94803 (15 mi) - ADD/ADHD Tutor - $45.50/hr.
My doctoral dissertation examined college-level remedial reading and writing students in an effort to determine if adding online instruction to traditional instruction would improve student performance. My dissertation explored five hypotheses, and I found statistical significance in all five; thereby supporting the notion that adding online instruction to traditional instruction can improve student learning. While I was a doctoral student, I was also a Merit Scholar. In addition to my teaching, I have also tutored elementary, high school, and college students in reading, writing, and the understanding of Literature. I have also worked a great deal with ESL students. My love of teaching is stimulated most when working with students who require the most assistance. Through my study in Educational Psychology, I have learned that all students have their own learning styles; I am able to qui
