Ashley Frankian- Special Educator, Ell instructor

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the ... read more

Individualized instruction

Brain based instruction focusing on individual learning styles.
I taught for seven years in public education. My experience spans from grades 5-8. In that time, I worked with a diverse population with varying needs. My classroom was inclusionary which required modification of instruction, and learning about a variety of learning disabilities. Many of my students were ESL, as well.

Reading Tutoring - Wilson, Orton-Gillingham, Lively Letters

Reading intervention at Cherubino Health Center is effective and fun Every lesson is tailored specifically for each of my students to be exactly what he or she needs to succeed. Our individualized lessons are explicit, sequential, cognitive, cumulative, phonics-based, multisensory and emotionally sound. Each lesson is paced to hold the student's interest, reinforce previous skills, introduce new skills in explicit, small steps, build on strengths, and is completely positive. Reading is taught with a minimum of the “exceptions to the rules” that plague so many struggling readers. Students learn that English makes a lot more sense than most people know because it is based on predictable syllabic, spelling, Anglo-Saxon, Greek and Latin patterns. Mastery of reading is achieved because we stay with each new concept until it is assimilated accurately, fluently and permanently as we continua ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I use a multisensory approach espoused by the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction. Sight, sound, and neurological pathways to develop reading skills are utilized.

I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools. I earned a Bachelor's in Literature and history in 1993, and am confident about my ability to work with all types of students in all areas of academics. I am a teacher in a substantially separate classroom for children with emotional disabilities. I also work with autistic children each summer in a social skills program. I have co-taught in the general education classroom over the years, and consider myself experienced and well-schooled in all facets of special and general education. I have also tutored children with reading disabilities over the years with great success (no magic elixir, just hard work on the part of the students and my Orton-Gillingham practices). ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : As a dyslexic student myself, I have intimate knowledge of the possible difficulties with learning a new language.

As a student, I understand the importance of a good teacher. I always try and help the student find and correct their own mistakes, rather than merely giving them the corrections. I have found that the listening is one of the most important tools that a tutor has at their disposal: in my experience, the student knows where their weaknesses and difficulties lie, even if they are unable to articulate the problem areas. Therefore, as a tutor, I always try and listen carefully to the student and adapt the lesson to each students respective needs.
During the last two years of my undergraduate career I worked as an Arabic and Economics tutor in the Academic Resource Center at Tufts University. With respect to Arabic, I worked with Beginner and Intermediate level students - extensively using Al-Kitaab. Being dyslexic, I have an intimate knowledge of the difficulties that dyslexic students ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : Wilson Reading Program - Level I Certified

Hello parents and potential students. My name is Wendy. I am a Certified Wilson Reading Program Instructor and mom of two wonderful elementary aged students. I began my journey into the Wilson Program with a desire and dedication to help my oldest child, who is dyslexic, with his academic struggles, specifically with reading and spelling. Fascinated by the process (a very systematic and specifically structured program) and excited by my son's progress, I decided to work toward becoming Wilson Certified and tutoring other children who need help with reading. I believe that all children can learn to read and with patience, practice, and even some fun I can help them reach their full potential. The progressive successes they will achieve with this program will build their self-confidence and self-esteem; I look forward to watching that happen for them! I can provide a letter of recom ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that in order to be a truly exceptional teacher, one must put an effort into getting to know their students as an individual. It is important to design lessons that will compliment a student's personal learning style and reflect their interests. I think that learning can be demonstrating in several different capacities. Students should be encouraged to ask questions about their world and explore their natural curiosities. Students should not be afraid to ask questions or to ask for further clarification. They should not be fearful of making a mistake. Mistakes should be used as an essential tool in the learning process. I strive to make a positive impact in the lives of each student.
In May 2008, I received my BA in Elementary Education and Sociology. Upon graduating, I took a summer job working as an Aid for a Collaborative Program. In December 2008, I was hired ... read more

With a Master of Education in Special Needs I acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to adapt instructional practices for diverse learners. Working in partnership with the child, parent(s), and school districts I developed meaningful learning activities addressing the specific academic needs of the child. I have tutored children and young adults whose abilities ranged from special needs to advanced placement. I have taught mathematics, writing, reading, social studies and science throughout elementary, middle school and high school.
Talking with students and analyzing their work samples determines their needs. I ask students to complete a "multiple intelligence" survey to determine their learning strengths. In designing delivery of services I incorporate specific strategies to complement their learning styles. For example, a visual/spatial learner would benefit from drawing pi ... read more

I completed a degree in Learning Disabilities/Written Language at Curry College. In addition, I completed an Internship in Learning Disabilities through Lesley University at Pine Ridge School in Williston, VT where I tutored remedial reading at the summer school for five summers.
Knowing how one learns: metacognition, is so important for students. I encourage all my students to strive to work collaboratively and to be caring, intelligent individuals. Every student can learn. Each student has individual strengths and areas needing strengthening.
