My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : I have a Master's degree in Special Education grades Kindergarten-12th grade.

My teaching style varies from student to student. I believe in group work, I believe in independent work, and I believe that all students should have the opportunity to expand their minds. I allow students to research, explore, and analyze answers on their own while offering them support and encouragement.
After graduating from college with a Bachelor's degree in Middle School Education, I taught for 8 years in a middle school in North Carolina. During this time, I went back to school and received a Master's degree in Special Education. I have taught grades 6th, 7th, and 8th. I love helping students and allowing their minds to fill with knowledge! I believe that every student CAN LEARN!

Teacher seeks tutoring students

I Have been a teacher since 2002. I have had various experience in teaching students diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, Asperger's Syndrome, OCD, PDD, ODD, as well as other learning, social, emotional, and behavioral disabilities. I have also had experience tutoring students from grades one to ten. I have had to plan and implement individual education plans as well as independent lessons for various students. I have worked with children from all types of schools including inner city and charter schools.
I love hands-on activities and learning experiences that include technology. I also like to include activities that appeal to all types of learning styles. I have used and implemented Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences when planning and implementing lessons.

Helping our children become Global Learners!

Set Realistic Goals and Rewards Create realistic, individual goals for all of your students. It's nice to have a classroom goal so students feel like they are working together, encouraging one another. However, it's more important to give each student an attainable goal that's personalized for their educational needs, such as completing homework assignments on time or checking over an assignment before they turn it in. Providing students with a personalized, attainable goals makes them feel like they can succeed and doesn't overwhelm them. Discuss with students the rewards for achieving their goals. Start with small increments. For example, two weeks of success is rewarded with lunch in the classroom. After a month, offer a special prize. Collect small objects such as pencils, stickers, glow in the dark rings or other trinkets for prizes. Meeting their goal for six weeks earns them a fr ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am experienced in teaching. I have worked within the public school systems as a substitute teacher and as a permanent employee. In addition, I have taught GED classes to adults; and tutored elementary and high school students. I am nearly completed with my Master of Science degree, and I have an earned Bachelor of Science degree from Bellevue University.
I am passionate when it comes to teaching. I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic succes ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach and enjoy working with all age groups of children. I believe all children can learn through different methods of instruction. I believe in teaching children through hands on methods and through doing and discovery. I believe through positive reinforcement and praise children can meet their goals and there is no end to what they can achieve. I will continue to best meet the needs of the students I am given and to make their educational experience both rewarding and enjoyable.
As long as I can remember I have always wanted to be a teacher to help all age groups of children. I have both a BS and a Masters degree in the field of education. I have taught for many years as well as been a principal and a tutor in reading, math, and handwriting. I really enjoy my profession as I believe it is one of the most rewarding.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student who has learned to cope and overcome a learning disability (ADHD), I understand the importance and significance of having people there to help in all aspects of academia. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in History and BA in Interdisciplinary Anthropology, as well as my Archaeology Certificate and a minor in the Classics. My experience in these subjects has given me a well rounded knowledge of Ancient, Medieval, and Early Modern European History, Cultural Anthropology, Archaeology and Archaeological/Anthropological theory. My field of study has also provided me with exceptional writing and reading comprehension skills. Over the last year and a half I have tutored fellow students in history and anthropology.
Overcoming my own learning disability, I have created methods of studying which have been adopted to help a number of college students. I understand the frust ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I absolutely love working with children! I am currently a "Big Sister" in the Youngstown/Mahoning Valley Big Brothers/Big Sisters program. In the past year, I have watched my "Little Sister" evolve from a shy, rebellious 8-year old to an outgoing, well-mannered, A student. I believe the one-on-one time she and I spend together has played a large role in her transformation. I was able to offer to her, the support she needed to succeed. I am eager to help others learn this same lesson of self-value and education.

More About This Tutor...

I have a son who was born with neurofibromatosis is accompanied by a learning disability. My son is now 18 and in his last year of High School. He has been in special education courses since 2nd grade once being diagnosed with his learning challenges. He has had an active IEP since that time and I have worked very closedly with him throughout his school years. I have worked with him on every subject, every project, and encouraged him along the way. Due to his learning and physical disabilities, he has very low self esteem and this causes him to rebel during most homework sessions. It has been a true challenge, but very rewarding when I see him succeed, passing a test, knowing new words, etc..
My son, as I stated earlier can be rebellious, so I have to be very patient with him and always stay positive. I constantly tell him how smart he is, how well he is doing, and I always ... read more
