Let's do this... TOGETHER!

I am a very interactive teacher. I want feedback so I can see the progress the student is making. If they are not getting something, I make adjustments and change tactics. I teach tot he student(s). Everyone learns differently. And sometimes by the time I get to them student, it has nothing to do with their ability but more their confidence because of previously bad experiences. Then its more just showing the student he or she can accomplish this. And I aim do have fun while we do it!
I have tutored for a non-profit organization, Life Christian Church, as an after school program on Wednesdays free to the community. I have also taught English and History to home school students. One of the biggest accomplishments was watching of the students who detested writing papers because he did not believe he could do it, grow into a man who is not writing weekly papers confidently.

Reading and Phonics Specialist

I specialize in teaching dyslexic students how to read. I have my BA in English from UC Berkeley and my MA in Teaching Reading and Writing. I have been teaching systematic reading and phonics instruction since 2009, and am very passionate about teaching reading skills. I am experienced in all the major well-researched reading methodologies. With the program I use, I have watched students jump two grade levels in reading within 6 months of instruction. I teach students skills to decode words using phonics, along with the most common sight words in the English language. To improve fluency and reading comprehension, I incorporate texts that are both engaging and challenging for students into the lessons. I also teach students who struggle with spelling, helping them master the most common sound patterns, sight words and sight syllables to greatly improve their spelling. I love what I do ... read more

Elementary Phonics is one of my top subjects!

What I enjoy most about teaching is getting to know my students and what motivates them to learn.
My passion and career of working with school aged children started over 18 years ago. While I was in college completing my credential I worked after-school programs, and I started teaching K-5th grade as soon as I received my Multiple subject credential. I have experience with multiple curriculum and learning styles.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.
I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.

I utilize strategies that help reach all learning styles.

I have over 8 years of experience in the classroom working with students K-12 in various course subjects. I have taught in an elementary classroom setting, grades 3, 5, and 6. Currently, I work with students individually to grasp material presented in their classes as well help to ensure that all assignments are being completed and understood. Throughout those years, I have specialized in working with students who struggle with learning, presenting content in alternative ways along with using their strengths in order to grow academically.

Went to the Army two years and reserve three years. Came back and picked up the quickest degree possiable. Moved to Hawwaii, three years. Became a ciritified dept of defense government contractor. Furnish and deliver contracts. Ended up moving back home to Albuquerque NM. I started working in the Indian Casinos for 13 years. I bought a house and retired. But now I'm tired of sitting around.
All I do is tend to my students needs. I'm personal. Like to get off track with my students and lead them back to the point.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is a hands on "learn by doing" approach. I believe that kids learn when they are fully engaged by using all of their senses to learn a subject matter, not just a learn by memorizing facts approach.

My background experience is highly involved in all aspects of science including biology, chemistry, microbiology, anatomy and physiology. I was involved in high school in the Advanced Placement program in both History and English and have experince in all types of writing and grammar skills. I received my Master of Business Administration where I learned skills in public speaking and presentation.

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer to provide students with hands on and/or visual tools during learning when possible. I like to make the educational topic meaningful and interesting to the student.
I have been a credentialed teacher for 4 years. I work primarily with students with moderate/severe disabilities. Previously, I was a teacher's aid, tutor and daycare worker. I am credentialed in both general education and special education. I have experience working with a wide variety of learners in all subject areas. I have worked with students who are simply trying to get ahead in school, students who are falling behind and need homework help, students who are about to be retained, to students who are significantly delayed and are on their own curriculum program. My special education background allows me to support all levels of students and support different learning styles.

More About This Tutor...

I am a senior undergraduate student enrolled at Georgia Tech. My major is nuclear and radiological engineering, but i have experience in the fields of mechanical and civil engineering. I am most experienced in the subjects of mathematics, radiation physics, and electromagnetics including: algebra (I and II), trigonometry, differential equations, calculus 1 and 3, reactor physics, radiation protection/particle physics, thermodynamics, classical mechanics. I also have basic college level experience in the fields of chemistry and biology.
I encourage students to question problem solving methods in order to understand the fundamentals. After an explanation of the material I often follow up with several example problems to help students test their mastery of the subject. I do not emphasize memorizing equations, because students do not learn about the physical phenomena by memorization. ... read more

My comments on tutoring Elementary Phonics : I believe phonics is the basis for learning spelling and reading in the early grades.

I believe a strong emphasis on spelling, grammar and comprehension is key to future learning. I approach these subjects from different angles so that it does stay interesting. I believe in bolstering self confidence and yet encourage students to put effort into their lessons.
I have taught grades 3 and six as part of my internship in Messina, New York. I tutored third grade children in remedial reading as a private business. After raising my own children and working in industry I returned to teaching. I taught ESL to adults in Boston, MA and as part of Literacy,Inc in Escondido, CA. I have tutored third grade students in reading as part of Oasis Program. I currently home school a third grade boy in all subjects. My students have enjoyed my classes and found learning can boost their confidence.
