I have completed the credit equivalent to an AA. My focus area was human services and psychology. I will continue to toward my BA in the same fields. I have always excelled in most areas regarding reading and English. While in college all student were required to take tests that would direct them toward appropriate classes that would help them in several areas of study. The only class available above my ability in reading/English was a speed reading course

My comments on tutoring Special Education : I have assisted in the classroom and one on one on field trips.

Repetitive reading that helps recognition and pronunciation, sounding out and following along with single reading. getting the group excited about the material we use by offering props. Encouraging group participation and support.And of course stickers and promotion. My idea is to have 5 to 10 children of close to the same age reading and practicing together, asking questions about the subject and imaging themselves in the stories they are reading. I like to have a prop from the stories and offer it to the reader as the others track and read along.
I have 4 years of elementary library aide experience, a small one on one group to help them to excel in reading, pinpointing areas of weakness and strengths, helping young readers succeed in comprehensive reading. I worked closely with our reading experts to test and evaluate the readers to mainstream them back into the classrooms of re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in all subject areas for the student(s) unable to be in the regular classroom setting due to illness. It is very much a tutoring situation as 5 hours per week is not nearly enough to provide the detailed instruction available on a daily basis.
It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learnin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe every child is capable of matching and exceeding our highest expectations. Every child learns differently and that is my approach. I don't believe in cookie cutter education. I design programs around students interests, needs, and abilities. I believe that positive feedback and reinforcement get better results than negativity, and it is my job to help your child be successful. It is my job to help your child buy into their own education and realize how great it is to be a lifelong learner.
I have been working with students since I was in Middle School myself. I went to college to become a special education teacher and am currently working as a resource specialist. I work with students who have learning disabilities, are at risk, have emotional disturbances, autism, or just need a helping hand. I have also taught in general education classrooms.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student and professional tutor, I have always believed education and enrichment are crucial to the advancement of the individual and society. Earning a bachelor’s degree in psychology has provided me with knowledge in cognition and development. Additionally, I have comprehensive knowledge in English and language arts due to writing a great deal of research reports throughout my college career. I have tutored high school students in a wide range of subjects including algebra and biology. Lastly, I have acquired six months experience in the in-home setting.
I derive a great sense of satisfaction from helping another person “get it”. I firmly believe all people are capable of achieving their full potential if provided with enrichment and a supportive environment. I tailor my tutoring to each unique learning style, and use the Socratic method of question and answer to help the stu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During my time as a tutor I've learned a variety of teaching styles. I've worked with kindergartners and employed an animated, high energy style to capture their attention and keep them motivated. For older students I use a type of Socratic method where instead of answering questions for them, I work with students by requiring them to answer questions so they can lead themselves to the right answer. I feel this method not only allows a student to develop confidence, it teaches them to rely on their own processes to develop answers. In addition to that method, I use traditional tutoring methods that involve discussing topics, developing strategies for remembering material, and identifying learning methods that work best for each student.

I have worked with different types of students over the years. At San Francisco State University, my lectures were geared toward incoming freshman and International students. It was my work with international students in a tutorial setting that allowed for the growth of my skills as an ESL instructor. From this experience, I have incorporated patience and the ability to break concepts down for those with language barriers. After working with an ADD student at SCORE, I learned the importance of concentration and focus when teaching key items. Overall, I incorporate a level of engagement, patience, understanding, and excitement into my style of teaching.
