Most recently, I have been doing SAT Tutoring. In the past, I have done homework help for children with ADHD, autism, cognitive disorders, developmental delays, behavioral problems, focusing difficulties and time management. I have made a lot of progress with many children who seemed to be having a very difficult time. Children and teens just need someone patient and willing to work with them.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : I worked as a teacher in a private school for children with dyslexia. My position was as a Language Fundamentals Teacher and I was trained using the Orton-Gillingham approach to teaching. This is a multi-sensory approach and very highly regarded as a successful approach for children with dyslexia and reading disabilities. It includes tutoring for reading, reading comprehension, writing, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and other skills related to English basics. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Human Development from Vanderbilt University with a specialization in Special Education and a Master's Degree in Psychology from Virginia Commonwealth University. Both of my educational careers involved extensive training related to infant and child development, special needs and high-risk infant, child, adolescent, and family populations, and internships within numerous developmental centers, schools, and hospitals.

I have worked with children and adolescents for over 30 years in various capacities and not only have a substantial amount of experience in varying types of special needs, but have very good rapport with children of all ages. I thoroughly enjoy them and they seem to pick up on that quickly. My approach to teaching revolves around determining the individual needs of the student, their strengths and weaknesses, and their particular learning style. I also feel it is very important to engage the student in participating as an important part of the learning process, gathering information on their likes and dislikes, their perception of their strengths and weaknesses, and what teaching techniques they feel work or do not work for them.

Time Tested Teacher

I began my 32 year teaching career in the field of music. I taught in the Visalia Unified School District in Visalia, California. I taught classroom music to children in grades 4-6. This was a job that required traveling from school to school encompassing 12 schools a week. During that time, I worked on completing a fifth year of college in order to obtain an elementary teaching credential from California State University, Fresno. Upon completion on my student teaching in a second grade classroom, I began a teaching position in Lindsay, California teaching 2nd grade for 4 years there. My next four years were spent substituting in the Rock Hill, SC school district after relocating from California due to my late husband's job transfer. I completed several long term as well as short term assignments. After that I secured a position teaching middle school math at Chester Middle Schoo ... read more

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : UCPS "Teacher of the Year" 2005-2006

I love children and have always been involved in the field of education since my graduation from Fairleigh Dickinson University. While raising my family, I have always been an active participant in school related activities both as a parent and on a professional level. My first teaching experience was in a theraputic classroom setting. this position helped me to develop a keen sensitivity to detect those children that might require a bit more individalized attention. An overall goal of mine is to further develop and increase each students potential.
It is my belief that it is essential to provide a systematic and thorough procedure for teaching specific skills in each discipline. This process should be executed according to the needs of the student and their level of functioning. As the facilitor, I design tasks to promote creativity by providing stimulating hands on manipulatives. ... read more

An effective teacher identifies the current instructional level of his or her students. Common Core Standards set clear expectations.

All lessons are meaningful to my learners and failure is not an option. I utilize technology within each lesson. I collect and analyze data. Data drives my instruction.
I have an extensive background in education and residential treatment. My strengths are building and executing academic rigorous programs for students with and without special needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying something is what it is "just because."
I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest ... read more

Creating Confident Students via Creative Learning

I like to use hands on and/or creative teaching methods when possible. I believe that practice and persistence makes perfect. I would say that my teaching style is "outside of the box". I use this effective method when possible, due to the fact that typically students have tried more standardized methods and have not been able to learn from them; therefore they seek tutoring.
I have assisted students with tutoring for most of my life. My mother has worked as a teacher since I was born. I have a broad spectrum in technical and creative skills when working with students. I worked as the Geology Tutor at UNC Asheville. I have worked as a tutor for K-5 students at Hall Fletcher Elementary School (also in Asheville, NC). I have also volunteered throughout my life, helping and tutoring students of all ages throughout my educational and professional career.

Cognitive Learning Intervention Strategies for Education

Over the past eight years, I have had the privilege of implementing and developing learning intervention plans for a wide array of students.
