My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : ONLINE, In Home or Library

I truly enjoy working one on one with students. I get to know each student and family so that I can work to meet the individual needs of each student. Then I address those individual needs through personalized lesson plans to teach to the strengths of the whole child. With older students this can also be accomplished ONLINE in selected subjects. I am compassionate, kind, and patient. Especially for the younger students I understand that games and fun activities are important to maintain interest as well as short spans of time on each activity. Even for older students we will move from one activity to another to decrease any boredom.
I hold a permanent license from the state of Ohio for Grades Kindergarten----8. I taught in the classroom for 18 years and was actively involved in the development of individual courses of study at both above and below grade levels. For 10 years I ... read more

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : Critical Thinking Skills

I am excellent at taking in and processing information and then fluently teaching others that same information in a way they can fully understand it. In High School, I taught many students in my chemistry class how to thoroughly understand the material. I have effectively taught and trained others the game of chess.
I offer a comprehensive and effective teaching method that will help the learner thoroughly understand the material, not simply memorizing it. My teaching consists of critical thinking and logical reasoning.

Intervention Specialist - Tutor Grades K-12

I tend to use three different teaching styles. Demonstrator or Personal Model, Facilitator and Delegator. However, I find that students learn best when teaching styles best match the students learning styles.
I have taught at the primary and secondary grade level in all subject areas. I have been a substitute for two years and have worked within diverse school districts around Ohio. I hold a B.S degree with Latin Honors in Special Education K-12 and have taken various courses for reading specialist. I attended Ohio State University for two years and Ohio Dominican University. I continue to further my education so that I can provide the best education to the students that I work with throughout the year.

I graduated from high school in 2005 and was 12th in my class. Out of high school, I worked as a pre-school teacher with children ages 1-8 years. I attended Ohio University Athens for Speech Therapy for four years and am now finishing my undergraduate degree online. While in college, I took many child development courses and english courses because I find both to be so much fun to learn about. I also took classes in Math 1, Pre-Algebra, Algebra and statistics. I know work full time as an administrative assistant at a line construction company, so I spend several hours a day typing and working with programs such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel and Power Point.

Simple Steps. The main key to successful learning.

Whatever works best for the student. I understand that everyone learns best in their own way so I am very flexible to what works best for each students' needs.
To be honest I do not have any professional experience tutoring. However, throughout my entire educational career I have always been able to grasp material before my classmates and hence help them grasp the material themselves. I am very patient and am able to break down any subject into very simple and easy to understand steps to ensure the students' success. ACT 32 AP Scholar

Highly Qualified Intervention Specialist

I believe in using individualized teaching methods for students as dependent on their learning preferences. I teach by using strategies that will allow me to touch on all the different learning modalities.
I have been an intervention specialist for Hilliard City Schools for the last 4 years. I have worked with students both in the inclusion and small group setting towards their individualized education goals. I have worked with students who have been diagnosed with disorders/disabilities that may impede their ability to learning in the traditional learning environment without support. The students who I have worked with have been diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, emotional disturbances, anxiety, learning disabilities, and cognitive delays.

Garrisons Elementary Tutoring Profile

My teaching style is different from most tutors. I like to tutor like a teacher. I give out study guides, quizzes, tests, checkpoints, and some small projects. I keep track of the students grade. I do not provide supplies. I require the student to have their coloring supplies, scissors, and other basic supplies. I let the parent have the say in what we learn about. I need to know what the child is learning about and what they need help with. I do need my clients to set up appointments in advanced so i may plan my schedule. I do specialize in Elementary students. I enjoy this age level of kids!
