Erica S. - Birmingham, AL 35209 (3.1 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Many students with dyslexia show remarkable improvement using the Academic Associates Reading Program. I believe all students can become successful readers with positive, engaging instruction. I am am a certified Reading Instruction Specialist and former fourth grade teacher. Most students rise 2-4 grade levels in under 50 hours of instruction using the Academic Associates Reading Program. The Academic Associates curriculum is a 13 lesson brain-based phonics curriculum. One of my favorite success stories is a student I'll call Mark. After completing only 7 lessons, Mark went from a 1.9 reading level to a 3.5 reading level. Because of his previous struggles in reading, the school he attended planned to retain him in the second grade. After only 2 months of instruction, the school called his mother to let her know that he would not be retained because of the remarkable improvement in his r

Caryn W - Birmingham, AL 35206 (5.3 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have 20 plus years of teaching experience. I have worked with students from pre-school age to adults. I have taught students with a variety of disabilities and functioning levels from severely impaired to gifted. Many students struggle with relationships and well as their academics. I believe in creating a safe, nuturing environment were a student is able to work at his own pace, at his own level, and feel a bond with his teacher. Setting realistic and obtainable goals with the student is a key factor to success. Measuring and documenting progress allows student, teacher, and family to see a visual record of growth. Addressing multiple intelligences and multiple learning styles are essential for struggling students. Finding a student's best mode of learning increases self-esteem and time on task.

Gail P - Maylene, AL 35114 (19.2 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I am a hands on/visual, motivating, guided/sheltered, higher order critical thinking teacher with exceptional classroom management skills.
I love teaching students how to think however, not what to think. I do this by guiding their learning by using project based learning activities that help them process what they have learning in logical steps using technology. Therefore, the end results of this process is a technologically based product which allows my students to communicate to me in writing what they have learned (PPP)! I am a well educated, award winning educator who has successfully taught a multitude of academic subjects in to students in grades ranging from kindergarten through the eight grade!
In addition to this, I have also received extra training in teaching math, science and technolgy. The training that I have received has allowed me completely engage my students in m

Marilyn M - Columbiana, AL 35051 (22 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I believe that every student has the potential to succeed in the area of learning new knowledge. Therefore I like to use a diagnosis method to find out the best method to reach the student. The most important facet is to build a rapport with the learner. This method has served me and the students I have worked with well through the years. I have many years of teaching specialised reading to special needs students. I have experience in individual plans, diagnosing reading difficulties, task anaylsis in all areas of education. I have taught both general and special education, as well as youth at risk. I have a proven record of success

Johnnie H - Tuscaloosa, AL 35404 (38.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I enjoy working with all students. I believe the greatest experience is learning from the students. All children are unique and have different views of recieving what is being taught. I believe that it is my duty to seek ways to help that child reach his/her highest potenials. I demand high expectations and values from each student. I have a driven determination in providing my best to each student. I may not reach all as desired but, it is my goal to provide my best. I have two years experience as a special education teacher in an inclusive setting and as a resource teacher. I am very compassionate about helping students to achieve and to believe that " if anybody else can do it, I can do it to." I have tutored in my church tutorial program and for the Metropolitian Certified Teachers Program; where we provided services for struggling students to improve their scores on the SAT

Charity J - Gadsden, AL 35902 (47.6 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $34.50/hr.
Many children struggle with classroom learning because they require a different learning method than the one being offered or more direct attention than a teacher of 20+ students can offer. As a dyslexia therapist I was instructed in a number of different approaches to teaching and how to match each one to an individual student's needs. As a tutor I make it my priority to learn not only which subjects a student needs help with but also why they are struggling at all which allows me to adapt the lesson plan in a way that is easy for them to understand and retain. Even before attaining my degree in English from Jacksonville State University I was passionate about all forms of teaching. I have over a year of experience tutoring college students at Jacksonville State University's Academic Center for Excellence and immediately following that nearly another year of experience tutoring dyslexic
