Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects! I have been tutoring a 14 year-old boy in reading comprehension for the past year and have seen great improvement in his abilities.

I served as a writing tutor to my peers while I was in college. I did this for three years and it seemed to help the students a great deal. This position was accompanied by training provided by one of my professors at Montreat College. The training lasted a full semester. I have also been tutoring a 14 year-old boy in reading comprehension for the past year. He has greatly improved since we started last summer in the speed of his reading, interest in what he is reading, and better comprehension as a whole.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : My past courses have included Myth and Human Culture, Beauty in Western Culture, Linguistic Anthropology and Literature Based Research. My method of active reading has helped several peers become more efficient in their literature based courses. As for younger students, I have completed courses in child and adolescent psychology as well as human cognitive behaviors. I do not use a cookie cutter approach to teaching reading as science has proven these "systems" ineffective. If you are looking for an individualized approach to reading and to increasing the enjoyment of reading, I may be able to help.

As a returning adult college student, I have both classroom experience and life experience. My academic background in developmental and cognitive psychology as well as linguistics has helped me lead and tutor peers in small group sessions for hard to grasp topics and in pre-exam sessions for consolidation of the semesters material. I am currently employed as a UNCC tutor in biology and psychology. I have also been asked to return in the fall as a statistics supplemental instructor for statistics.
My approach is multimodal as all students are different. The one consistent element is that of an active learning environment. Passive memorization and repetitive tasks are not part of my repertoire as both have usually been unsuccessfully attempted by those seeking tutoring. I request a lot of participation from the student. Development of critical thinking is also a fundamental par ... read more

Cognitive Learning Intervention Strategies for Education

Using a multi-sensory strategies and the Socratic Method of questioning, I enable to students to experience learning and discover answers in a meaningful way.

I have extensive experience addressing the learning needs of students with a variety of diagnoses: dyslexia, add/adhd, capd, autism-autism spectrum disorders, and language processing disorders.

Special Education Teacher With Tutoring Experience

It is important for me to be able to meet the student where they are at and go from there. I am relaxed in my style but hold high expectations regarding work ethic and progress. Generally I also just love to work with people.
For the past six years I have worked at a school for students who have language based learning disabilities, teaching and tutoring. Thus I have a lot of experience not only working with students who have learning disabilities but also a passion for teaching reading and writing. I also have a lot of private tutoring experience.

*** Learn to type in a Fun, Positive, & Calm environment ***

I've been typing for over 15 years and am highly confident that with my skills and abilities, I can teach others to improve their typing speed and overall typing ability when it comes to grammar, utilizing the correct punctuation, generating emails, etc. I'm fluent on both Macs & PC's so the participant/student can use whichever computer and software program is comfortable for them.
Fun & assertive, but also calm with a high level of patience for all learning levels

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

I've been teaching for a total of 22 years grades 2nd-5th. I have extensive experience on school improvement committees and after school programs. I've maintain excellent classroom management skills and an ability to keep students on task. I've integrated multiple teaching styles to intensify the range of learning.
As an experience teacher, I'd like to apply unique practices of teaching. I rely on demonstation to help my students comprehend what is being taught. I model new concepts several times and then take students through guided practice. Once guided practice has been completed, students begin practicing independently.

"Writing is the painting of the voice!" -Voltaire

Currently I'm a high school student at Lincoln Charter school in Denver. Ever since I started High school I've taken all honors classes, and graduated those classes with 90's and above. Right now I'm currently taking college writing class 111 and 112 in the 11th Grade. I take AP U.S. History. I enjoy reading and writing in my free time. Language, Grammar, Punctuation and Writing comes very naturally to me. Currently in my College writing class I have a 98%.
I can accommodate to what is best for your learning needs, I do not like tutoring online. Face to face is better; I like to know who I'm teaching on a personal level in order to make them comfortable when learning. Learning should be a fun process, not stressful!
