My comments on tutoring Special Education : Working with students or people that need a little extra help is my calling in life and I enjoy doing it. It takes a lot of patience and I have the patience of "Job."

I have 11 years of experience as a Paraprofessional on the secondary level. I work with children that have all kinds of learning disabilities and mild behavior problems. I have great skills in managing small groups of students and can carry out any accomodations on an IEP. I am fair, fun, but firm. Which means I want to make sure that you understand the lesson well and that you are capable of doing work like this whenever the need arises.
My teaching style varies according to the student. I am able to adjust to the needs of the person or person I am tutoring.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a financial services professional for over 10 years, I really enjoyed working one-on-one with my clients to help them meet their financial objectives. It is such a rewarding experience to see a client be able to save and eventually retire in part because of my help and their desire. During the last 6 months I have worked consistently at one school upon their request. I teach reading and writing from grade levels K-5. I work extensively with learning disabled students. The feeling of excitement I get when I see these children progress far surpasses that which I felt as a financial advisor. It truly is euphoria!
I love working with elementary children. They are so refreshing. Children really bring out the best in me-patience and passion. My style is easy going yet direct. As every child is different, I always try to adapt to individual learning styles. My role as an educat ... read more

I have always had a drive and desire to work and educate children. I believe all children have the ability to learn and deserve the opportunity to succeed to their fullest potential in all academic settings. As an educator, I realize no two students have similar learning styles with that I strive to provide all students with several effective teaching techniques to ensure that all students are learning and achieving to their fullest potential. Many of my teaching techniques includes hands on experiences/activities, effective modeling and practice, one-to-one teaching methods, group activities as well as through discovery. It is my goal as an educator to teach as if there were no tomorrow because our children are tomorrow's future.
As an honor society graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence and expertise in the field of education. I have earned one Bac ... read more

As a tutor, I review previous test, quizzes and work with the student to see where the "disconnect" lies. Most students are very capable, they just need someone to explain the material in a way they understand. Some students are visiual learners, other kinetic learners or they learn by doing. As I understand how the child learns and ask questions to see "why" the student chose the particular answer, I am able to see the problem and use a different teaching style for tutoring purposes.
I was a tutor for the School of Business and Economics in Elizabeth City where I earned by BS in Business in 2003. I tutored beginning through Intermediate accounting, Principles of Marketing and other business subjects from 2000-2003. I was a formal tutor for one year and a student tutor for 2 years.

More About This Tutor...

I have been working with Elementary age children since High School as a coach, mentor, babysitter, and volunteer. I have served as an after-school director as well as a small group tutor in a half way house for abused women. I currently teach 5th grade Special Education in a collaborative setting. I have taught all subjects, and am very comfortable with each subject. I have worked with the Wilson Reading program to help my students who have severe decoding deficits.
I've realized over the last four years that students want to learn and do well. I enjoy watching students when they grasp onto a concept they originally thought was too difficult. Not one method works for every student, so it takes dedication, patience, persistence and love to find each student's learning style. I believe I possess all of the aforementioned qualifications. I completely enjoy what I do!

More About This Tutor...

My teaching experience includes: underwriting skills enhancement for professional insurance agents; tutoring for Sylvan of kindergarten-age students through high school seniors; and introducing the building blocks of reading skills and math skills to elementary age children. Learning can be interesting, fun, challenging and enriching. I find I can assist students by using my sense of humor; adapting to a student’s most effective way to learn (auditory, visual, contextual, etc.); and using my work experiences to help students make real world connections to abstract learning. I love seeing that flash in a student’s eyes because of something I did or said that allowed them to grasp the material we are studying.

More About This Tutor...

I have spent most of my adult life helping children learn. I have worked in childcare facilities, as well as in public and private schools and as a private tutor. I have taught or worked with preschoolers through 5th graders. I've worked with special needs children, as well (ADD/ADHD, LD, ED, and ODD, for example). I've helped students improve their grades by two letter grades over the course of the year, and helped some achieve honor roll for the first time in their lives. I have tutored reading and math, as well as having taught all basic elementary school subjects.
I firmly believe ALL children can learn, but not everyone learns in the same way. I do my best to make a positive difference in their lives. I'm very patient and always listen to my students. I give my students tips to help them learn something and get them to repeat information back to me as we work so I know they un ... read more
