Special Education is one of my top subjects!

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 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.

My comments on tutoring Special Education : Masters Degree in Special Education

I have over thirty years teaching experience in the Chicago Public Schools. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology, a Master of Arts degree in special education, and a Master of Divinity degree. I have taught children ages 3 - 15 and tutored youth up to age 18. I am particularly skilled at helping young children develop readiness skills.
I believe that learners are most successful when they are confident in their abilities. I generally begin by assessing a child's present independent functioning level and slowly building on that. Nothing is more motivating than intrinsic rewards, so I strive to make the learner aware of their growth. I encourage them to celebrate every break through and to minimize the importance of errors. I stress that errors are simply stepping stones to the next level of competence.

I am very dynamic personable adult who loves to laugh, but also knows how to get down to business and get work done. I think it is very important to not only feed information to your student, but also to create a relationship them. This helps the student to feel comfortable so they can ask questions, even those they may feel to be stupid. I have been able to teach non-technical elderly adults computers and teens that had no interest in religion by creating a relaxed atmosphere and attempting to make the subjects interesting, relevant and fun. I believe one of the keys of effective teaching is making things as interactive as possible, trying to get students to teach themselves as we proactively guide them through subjects.
I have been teaching for 25 years. Most of my teaching was in religious settings working with teens, but I have also tutored younger children with school studies ... read more

I can teach many different styles to suit different learning styles. I truly believe in the mastery technique.

I am a patient and imagnitive teacher. I love children and love to teach. I like to motivate children and make them believe in themselves. I believe in children and my goal is to instill belief in them, that they can achieve anything. I like to instill positive feedback which I feel is necessary in children. I wish all teachers were dedicated and had compassion.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style changes to fit the requirements of the subject and the needs of my students. I find that presenting and explaining works best for language arts and history, concept teaching works best for science, and direct instruction works best for mathematics. I also take into account the learning preferences of my students: left or right brained, visual, spatial, or kinesthetic because each prefers different treatment. As a tutor I strive to teach each student in the instructional method they prefer because this leads to an increased comfort level and willingness to learn, and it also enables them to process the material faster. This enables them to become more successful students.
I have a Masters Degree as an Intervention Specialist with a with a BA in Language Arts and Math and an Associate in Engineering Technologies with a Math Minor.Presently I am a certifi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I focus on building a positive relationship with each child so that I earn his trust, discover his educational needs, and identify learning strengths and weaknesses. I believe each one is priceless, endowed with unique character qualities and abilities. By treating children with respect and teaching them to respect themselves and others, I create a safe environment that is conducive for effective learning. Then, together, we can work at developing and improving specific academic skills.
Since receiving my BS degree from Ohio State, I worked first as a substitute teacher, then as a paraprofessional with children with a variety of disabilities. Next, for nearly 2 years, I was a Head Start disabilities specialist in northwestern Ohio.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching comes naturally to me. I like to work with children at their skill level and build them up from there. This way the child builds confidence and can make a natural progression from where they are to where they want to be.
I knew since I was little that I wanted to help others. Getting into the field of education was a great choice! I have a BA and a MED in education, and have learned a lot about education, general school subjects, and teaching young children. I have tutored subjects such as general education, language, math, science, reading, phonics, social studies, handwriting and more.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent 4 years as a Spanish teacher and the past two years as a substitute teacher while working on my master's degree in Special Education. I have had many experiences with many different levels of learners both as a Spanish teacher and as a sub. Subbing has given me the opportunity to work with kids K-12 in a variety of different learning levels and subject areas. I try to get most of my sub days in special education classrooms to ready myself for my upcoming start to a new career. Focusing more on special education has allowed me to work more closely one on one with students much is the way of tutoring.
2 years ago when I quit teaching Spanish I thought I did not want to teach again, but when I was called upon to do a semester long subbing stint in a high school Emotionally Disturbed unit, all my original feelings for teaching came back. I love teaching and I love ki ... read more
