Corrinne P. - Culpeper, VA 22701 (53.7 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I have had stellar success working with students with decoding disorders, though I do not follow a prescribed curriculum such as OG. I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness. Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the s

Sheora H - Lynchburg, VA 24504 (31.1 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $58.50/hr.
As a College graduate, I was dedicated to the advancement of myself and others. I have earned a degree in Mass Communications, yet have had the opportunity to Substitute Teach, be a Para-Professional, and also teach at-risk student in a one-on-one setting as a Homebound Instructor for 2 years. These experiences have garnered a sense of urgency within me to reach as many students who are at risk; students who often lack the background to challenge them to complete their education. I have taught these students in various subjects including, History, Math, Science, and English. I love reaching students who are often overlooked due to their lack of mobility and interest to learn in a classroom setting. I believe that every person on this planet should reach atleast one person in order to excel as a person giving to the advancement of all humanity. This is my goal. I firmly believe that every

Jennifer C - Lynchburg, VA 24502 (36.7 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I will be graduating in May 2011 with a Masters of Arts in Teaching for Special Education and will then obtain a teaching license for Special Education, K-12. During my Masters program I have taught students in large groups and small groups, performed assessments on students, and planned daily lesson plans and curriculum for students in a variety of subjects. Through my years of higher education I have gained a love for students, children, and education for everyone. I enjoy teaching students through a variety of methods including traditional, hands on, and student specific. Each student learns differently and as a tutor I seek to tailor the education to the specific skills and needs of the specific student. I believe the goal of teaching is not only to learn specific content and skills, but to inspire students to love learning, and make learning fun and interactive. I hope to chal

Klarissa S - Red House, VA 23963 (39.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I've always believed that children learn by doing. I would rather have my students get real hands-on experience because concepts can be better attained and understood if children get real experience with it. I also believe that children learn differently from one another and a teacher should be able to accommodate the different learning styles of her or his students. One method may not work for a student, so I feel that it is the teacher's responsibility to make sure each student reaches their full potential by finding ways that will work for her/his students and then incorporate these differences in the classroom. After watching a documentary on teachers teaching in the inner city, I decided to switch my major from Pre-Law to Elementary Education. I've always loved learning and I wanted to be able to convey that same message to my students. In college, I majored in Elementary Education
