Dyslexia Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Banks, ID

I have twenty-nine years of experience in education. I served as an Elementary School Principal for 15 years. I have taught in grades 1, 2, and 3 in several school districts. I enjoy working with people of all ages. I believe that learning can be fun with varied activities to meet the specific needs of each student. I have a big bag of tricks, activities, and insight! i believe that my teaching style must match a student's learning style. I will incorporate visual, auditory, and kinestetic methods into learning.

I have been a substitute teacher with the Boise School District for the past 6 years now. I have also worked for the company, Club Z tutoring. I have both a Bachelors degree as well as a Masters degree (academically) but still need to pass the Praxis II test and then student teach before I can apply for my own classroom. I prefer working with elementary age students and my speciality areas are reading, grammar, spelling, and some math. I have a high GPA of 3.8 and most of my Masters classes have enabled me to gain an understanding of reading and grammatical principles. As part of my Masters program I tutored a 5th grade girl in reading over the summer which enabled her to raise her reading and comprehension to "proficient". I enjoy working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. To be an effective teacher/tutor, I must first learn the student's

As I was tutoring fellow students in high school, I realized I wanted to teach. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Special Education. I chose, then, to go into the business of training and consulting rather than work for the Public School System. I have fifteen years experience in needs analysis and consulting, twelve years experience in personal computer training, eight years experience designing curricula and training materials, four years experience in computer sales management, two years experience as substitute teacher, and very recent experience preparing a child with learning disabilities to re-enter the regular classroom using the Davis Learning Strategies System. I am well versed in many subjects, including math, science, reading, writing, French, music, and computer applications; I have a lifelong penchant for learning and passion for teaching what I learn. Although I am

When I was a high school student, I tutored pre-algebra, geometry and algebra, Shakespeare, World Literature, and Earth Science. I managed my own clients and improved test scores with every client. During the summer of 2005, I tutored mentally disabled children in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. I attended the University of Idaho and have received a B.S. in Mathematics. While there, I worked at the Polya Math Lab, tutoring college algebra. I continued to tutor on my own during college, and have tutored in all forms of vector calculus, from methods of integration to 3d modeling. I have also tutored Abstract Algebra (group and ring theory), Combinatorics, and Number Theory. I am particularly good at walking people through proofs. While at college, I have also helped people develop their writing skills by participating in over 4 semester-long workshops. When teachi

I love teaching. While I have also been a counselor and administrator, I managed to be able to at least tutor along the way, with a few exceptional years. I found that children were especially responsive to me, so I often found myself with elementary children (who, under my tutelage, managed to "catch up" an/or improve their grade point average -- often to their parents' delight). Since I love learning, children and teens "catch" my enthusiasm, and invariably get caught up with my honest excitement about a suject. Learning is a terrific discovery process, and mastery of data and sills makes one far more confident. My enthusiasm is absolutely sincere (you cannot act out a love for learning, without being discovered). As a tutor, I quickly find out the level a student is performng in (there are practical ways, even without achievement tests), and I soon am able to ascertain his motiv
