Amy M - Riverton, IL 62561 (6.4 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $37.00/hr.
After graduating from college with a degree in English, I pursued a career in the corporate field. I did not find it satisfying and yearned to return to school to pursue a master's in education. I began substitute teaching in spring of 2007 and completed my student teaching in December 2007. I have been teaching English since I finished student teaching and have been a tutor at Sylvan for some time.

I have exceptional skills in motivating students to learn how to read. I passed the Reading Teacher Certification Test in November and am waiting fo
