My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : I have worked with many students who have ADD/ADHD and developed strategies to help them become successful and confident in school.

I have been working with Elementary aged children for over 7 years. I have had many different teaching experiences working with grades K-2. I have tutored primarily in reading with an emphasis on guided reading strategies, phonemic awareness, and word building. In the area of math, I have experience with the programs: Calendar math, Investigations, and Singapore Math. For Writing, I have used the Lucy Culkins Program as well as 6 Traits writing. I enjoy working with students to help them gain confidence and find their passion in learning.
When I first meet my students, I want them to feel comfortable with me and what we will be doing. I try to get to know them as we work together and find out what their interests, hobbies, strengths, weaknesses, and other important factors in their lives. I will work on homework, projects, test preparation, as well as activities and lessons I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am passionate when it comes to teaching. I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic success.
I am experienced in teaching. I have worked within the public school systems as a substitute teacher and as a permanent employee. In addition, I have taught GED classes to adults; and tutored elementary and high school students. I am nearly completed with my Master of Science degree, and I have an earned Bachelor of Science degree from Bellevue Universit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I absolutely love working with children! I am currently a "Big Sister" in the Youngstown/Mahoning Valley Big Brothers/Big Sisters program. In the past year, I have watched my "Little Sister" evolve from a shy, rebellious 8-year old to an outgoing, well-mannered, A student. I believe the one-on-one time she and I spend together has played a large role in her transformation. I was able to offer to her, the support she needed to succeed. I am eager to help others learn this same lesson of self-value and education.
I am an accomplished and experienced communications professional. My education, as well as my past achievements demonstrate an ability to combine astute oral and writing skills with an impeccable work ethic and drive for success. I have earned a BA in Communication Studies and a MSJ in Broadcast Journalism. My academic career provided me with a solid foundation, w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education, but my experience has reached beyond that to help children with behavioral and mental health issues. I love working with individuals and meeting their individual needs. My job experience includes teaching Pre-Kindergarten, substitute teaching in public schools, working as a Wrap Around Counselor in the school system and in the home and community,and providing Case Management services for Early Intervention and foster care.
When working with children of all ages I believe instruction should be non intimidating, exciting and rewarding! That often means using non traditional methods and materials for learning. I will create lessons based on the child's needs, ability, and interest. It is important to incorporate the educational requirements and teach the child ways of coping with the many demands of the ... read more

I graduated from Slippery Rock University with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Special Education. Throughout college, I was involved in numerous activities to better my understanding of teaching. I currently work as an AmeriCorps tutor at a local school district. I work with Kindergarten through sixth grade. I have tutored math, reading, science, and social studies. I have over two years of experience. I have created before and after school tutoring workshops for standardized test prep. I try to teach my students test taking strategies that can be used for any test they may take as well as prepare them for their future.
I have learned that every student has different needs and abilities; therefore, they need different learning avenues. My job as a teacher is to help each child find his/her way of learning, so that he/she may be successful in lifelo ... read more

I am an innovative, flexible, and patient individual. I am excited to work with students helping them to succeed in all that they do.
