My comments on tutoring Special Education : I am an EC TA in a self-contained AU classroom and I am still trying to work on my Masters in Special Education.

I like to get on the child's level and teach that way. I like to ask the children what their best way is to learn and what are some of their favorite things are so I can incorporate them into the lesson.
I have been working with Elementary children for over 10 years now. I have helped all ages with homework, sports, and life skills (current job now as EC TA). I also have been coaching for the past five years in cheerleading and soccer, but in different age groups. I have been in the school system for the past year in a half and have worked on phonics, math, science, and life and social skills with AU students.

A teacher never stops teaching, and never ceases learning.

I have to first find the learning style of the student. As a teacher, I find that students have diverse ways of learning and that I must adapt my teaching style to their needs. For instance, I have some students who are auditory learners and sometimes retain information more if information is read orally to them. Some students must have a generous amount of explanation as to the content of what he or she is reading while otheers require many visual cues to accompany their learning. It really depends upon the student.

Being able to work with children and help them achieve that A in that classroom that they may have never thought they could get, can be the difference between a child going to college or not.

Since children do have different learning styles, I have found that some of your beginning stages with them is figuring out how to effectively work with a student. After that discovery incorporating these learning styles in the lessons will aid in having successful learning experiences. This is my first goal as I begin to plan individual or small group lessons. Adjusting your plans and evaluating the lessons is also part as go forward with the varied students' learning styles. I seek to focus on how to aid their education, whatever styles are required.
My experience has included eight years in public and private schools in the USA and four years in an international school in Germany. During these years of teaching I taught elementary fourth and fifth, middle school 7-9 grades with varied subjects, and also high school for Bible as Literature. Since I lived overseas, learned t ... read more
