I have taught preschool,elementary and adult students for the past 8 years. As a preschool teacher, I developed my own curriculum and taught 3 year olds. I also worked for four years as a elementary teacher for Douglas County School District, in which I was responsible for organizing and following state and district K-2 curriculum. More recently, I have been employed at Family Support Council of Douglas County to teach adults in a variety of classes. I designed my own parenting and support classes for adults. I love teaching and believe it is my calling in life.

Elizabeth J - Minden, NV 89423 (23.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I believe in the Democratic approach to Educating the young.
I start the year by asking the students what they would like to learn that year and we record this on a large sheet of paper.
Students feel happy to know their wishes are so considered and
then at the end of the year we review the list and they see that
they have covered everything they wanted to learn and much more.
I am seriously concerned with the self-esteem of each children and work to elevate this so that the children will be able to
grow and achieve the most that they can while in my class. I love children and I love teaching. My initial experience was as a 2nd grade teacher in the Milwaukee
Public Schools.(6years) I then moved to Ohio where I taught
for 4 years as a Learning and Behavior Disordered teacher.
I attended Kent State University and procured a Masters in
Counseling for the Elementary Children. I t

Elizabeth J - Minden, NV 89423 (23.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have been an elementary teacher for over 21 years in Wisconsin,
Ohio, Arizona, and recently in Reno, Nevada. I hold a Masters Degree in Counseling from Kent State and acquired this in order
to better serve the children in my classroom with their
needs.
I have taught all the subjects successfully and have also taught
Music, Art, Dance, and Drama to the children in my classes.
I have also worked as teacher to Learning Disabled children for
four years. I believe that our children hold the future of our world in their
hands and hearts and for this reason I have a deep desire to
assist them in learning all of their subjects as well as they
can.
My approach is democratic in that I ask the child for his/her
input on what they like to study and learn too. Finding out
a childs loves is important for a teacher. An example is:
Going to the library to find books for students

Tracy C - South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 (27.8 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style is to individualize instruction for each child. I believe that every child has their own way of learning and I would teach in a way so that they could be successful. I teach one concept at a time, building on each concept as they master it. I have a style that is very positive and encouraging so as to keep the student motivated. I celebrate even the smallest of successes. I believe that every child can turn a weakness into a strength given the right guidance. I have been a Special Education Assistant for the past 12 years. I assist the classroom teacher with with everything from paperwork to teaching lessons. I have also taught middle school math for 5 years during the summer on an emergecy credential. I have also tutored students ranging from middle school to high school ages for the past 5 years. My specialty is Math and specifically Algebra.

Lynne G - Glenbrook, NV 89413 (34.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I like to build on student's individual strengths, to enhance their self-confidence and empower them to make discoveries on their own. I realize how much learning, and one's experience of learning, can impact an individual in the present and in the future. I aim to provoke curiosity and joy in this lifelong journey. I love to help one-on-one! I have three graduate degrees with one in the field of teaching. I have taught and tutored learners from nursery school up through the college level. Originally, I majored in special education and especially love working with children.

Devon H - Carson City, NV 89702 (35.1 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have been working with children and adolescents in a variety of capacities for 20+ years. I truly enjoy their energy and their desire to be successful given the right encouragement and direction. For the past 4-5 years, I have been a substitute teacher and tutor for K-12, working with a culturally diverse mix, in the areas of math, English, science, health education, music, journalism, and theatre. I have received pictures, flowers and numerous other tangible "thank you's!" from parents and children and love this work! Given the right atmosphere, I honestly believe anyone can learn. Unfortunately, many individuals are given labels, especially regarding their learning capacity, and once that belief system is in place, the expectations are often lowered and self-esteem suffers. I believe in positive encouragement and support, while working through difficulties with a 'can do' attitude on

Pamela T - Carson City, NV 89706 (35.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $38.50/hr.
When I was working as a secretary I knew I wanted to further my education. I returned to school and completed my bachelor of science in education. As a classroom teacher I realized the many problems my students had to deal with. This prompted my to complete my master in school counseling. I have attended several workshops throughout my career to enchance my teaching and counseling methods with Reading, Writing and Grammar for students of any age. I love working with students. As a teacher I enjoy the learning process and love watching the students discover new concepts and ideas. As as school counsleor I assisted students in working at their emotional and challenging behaviors. In both positions I strongly believe each student has the potential to learn. I teach to the different learn styles of my students.

Kai B - Incline Village, NV 89451 (44.4 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I am a valedictorian candidate, graduating with a degree in English. My background in English is both technical, focusing on classics in British and early American literature, while my position as editor of the Sierra Nevada Review, an annual publication of poetry, affords me a creative grasp of writing. I am also the assistant coordinator of the Sierra Nevada Tutoring Center. During my time at the center, I have helped institute protocols for L2 learners and have instructed tutors on methods of tutoring. I have been a tutor for four years, and have tutored all ages, including elementary school children learning to read, as well as adults working on dissertations. I emphasize meaning in my instructional style. Rather than, say, inculcate a formula for comma us, I try to convey how comma use provides meaningful structure to an idea, i.e. the sentence. In the larger sphere of things,
