Support for students with Special Needs!

I have worked with student with special needs since 1999. I have been employed with Los Angeles County Office of Education as a teacher who worked with kids with behavior disorders. I have worked as a teacher with kids who have learning handicaps. Presently, I am employed with Norwalk- La Mirada USD as a RSP teacher. I diagnose kids with learning disabilities using various formal and informal assessments. I run small group instruction to provide remediation.
I like to work one-to one or in a small group forum. I am very much interested in the whole child approach.

Dyslexia is one of my top subjects! I had dyslexia when i was younger it was tough and nobody even noticed until second grade. I received treatment and i was very fortunate that i was still young enough to have it reversed. I remember what it was like to have dyslexia and I know how to teach someone who has it.

I'm not very old yet but i know a lot. I've babysat my younger cousins and have had experience with many animals. ( Fish, Cats, Rabbits,Dogs,and birds.)I'm free from 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. weekdays and 9:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. weekends and summer vacation. I can tutor,babysit,and take care of animals.I know how to cook basic things so if your looking for a babysitting tutor and will be away your child will be in good hands. My strong suite is probably science and history. I can help almost anyone improve their test grades ( as long as they are trying ) I'm not the tutor for someone struggling in Math past elementary levels though because I don't think I'd be able to help anyone entering algebra. ( I find it too complicated to explain.)I'll make learning fun for your child and will definitely have fun activities to do when we have spare time. Personally I believe nobody should work for mo ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : My current career is in Applied Behavioral Analysis and my job is to work with children who are not neurotypical for whatever the reason.

Behavioral Autism Therapy Behavioral Therapist • Provided behavioral therapist services to clinics, communities and resident based settings • Changed destructive behavior of patients through quality behavioral therapist functions • Monitored, observed and recorded behavioral aspects of patients • Treated mental illnesses like aggressive behavior, anxiety, phobias, autism and substance abuse in patients • Modified and changed behavioral disorders and aspects in children and adolescents
Depends on how the client learns. I spend the first few days probing based on the Applied Behavioral Analysis standard before targeting specific patterns to teach.

Dyslexia is one of my top subjects! I was a history major at Loyola Marymount University and tutored dyslexic students part time from grades 1-6. I personally am dyslexic and did not learn how to read until I was in 7th grade. My personal experience has allowed me to help others with this disability. I am also a good role model as I am currently in law school, showing that you can overcome these disabilities.

I am extremely calm and teach at my students speed. Being dyslexic and not learning how to read or write until I was in 7th grade I am understanding and well-tempered to learning speeds. I also have strong verbal communication skills.
My studies in history have made me a terrific writer and researcher. I also have a great amount of experience in creative writing having taken many courses and working in talent agencies. Added to this I have worked in medical offices, elementary schools, coached sports, and am currently a part time law student. I am also a fiction writer and am the author of the amazon eBook series,Chronicles of Richard Spdafore. Please see blog for info. http://richardspadafore.blogspot.com/

I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.
I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.

Kind, Knowledgable, Multi-Subject Tutor Available

I always strive to draw the student's attention to the lesson, therefore, I work most math problems with my students. I try to keep communication open and light-hearted. I want my studeents to feel free to ask questions and come to me with any problems they may have. I generally prefer hands-on learning. I try to never "lecture" and remain removed from the material the student is working on. I am very involved with the student and am not afraid to challenge them when I feel they are ready for that.
I have taught all grades for several years as a teacher. My main focus has been Special Education and I am close to completing my Education Specialist Credential. I have also tutored for the Jones Reading and Math Clinics for over 10 years. I mostly tutor math at all grade levels from kindergarten through 12th grade. I also tutor earth science, writing, reading skills, history, an ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been working with special needs students for the past 6 years. I have a passion for teaching all children, but especially those who have a different way of learning. I have a unique ability to diagnose a student's strengths and weaknesses and to develop a plan of actions to use their strengths to help them build in the areas where they need further assistance. I believe that all students can learn if given the appropriate tools and encouragement from their teacher. I also believe that teachers need to set high expectations for all students and that it is vitally important that students develop a self-awareness and self-motivation to learn.
I have been working as a paraprofessional in a special education classroom for the past 6 years. I have now obtained my Education Specialist Credential. I am certified to teach students with mild/moderate disabilities. In addition, ... read more
