Elementary Special Education Teacher

My teaching style is student centered. I try to figure out what work best for each student and go from there. If a student has a learning stye that is very hands on then I will try to make sure a portion of my lesson is tactile. It is not always easy but I strive to differentiate to meet all of my students' learning needs..
I have been teaching students with many different special needs for the past 19 years. My experience ranges from students with severe developmental delays to students with emotional disabilities. My experience has mostly been with students who have learning disabilities. I also have son that has an IEP for learning disabilities and is thriving now in school.

I firmly believe that every child deserves to receive the best education out there. I aspire to share my passion and ambition to learn with my students.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught special education (emotional support) from 1971 intermediate at all levels until retirement in June, 2004. Since then I've taught part-time as special educator and tutor at an alternative school. In all these years I have taught all subjects as needed, and have learned many approaches to a given lesson. My favorite subject is Algebra I, but I am versatile. I have level 1 certificate in Wilson Language Training, and PA reading specialist certification . A sideline is 30 years of income tax preparation with a nationally know company, which had led me to earn the status of Enrolled Agent with the IRS. Another sideline is 30+ years breeding well-pedigreed boxer dogs.
My preferred style is one-on-one tutoring, and the method will vary according to the needs of the student. In using Wilson language training, I follow a fairly controlled lesson plan, updated daily to ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typically working with what are known as the "at risk" students. However, I eventually found my way into the classroom as It was noticed that I had a natural ability to balance teaching in the content area and managing behaviors. I loved math all of my life and even found myself tutoring fellow college classmates. I have been teaching math now for 6 years and have been the lead math teacher in every school that I taught for.
My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going.
As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor.
