Kind, Knowledgable, Multi-Subject Tutor Available

I have taught all grades for several years as a teacher. My main focus has been Special Education and I am close to completing my Education Specialist Credential. I have also tutored for the Jones Reading and Math Clinics for over 10 years. I mostly tutor math at all grade levels from kindergarten through 12th grade. I also tutor earth science, writing, reading skills, history, and govenment.
I always strive to draw the student's attention to the lesson, therefore, I work most math problems with my students. I try to keep communication open and light-hearted. I want my studeents to feel free to ask questions and come to me with any problems they may have. I generally prefer hands-on learning. I try to never "lecture" and remain removed from the material the student is working on. I am very involved with the student and am not afraid to challenge them when I feel they are rea ... read more

Dyslexia is one of my top subjects! I was a history major at Loyola Marymount University and tutored dyslexic students part time from grades 1-6. I personally am dyslexic and did not learn how to read until I was in 7th grade. My personal experience has allowed me to help others with this disability. I am also a good role model as I am currently in law school, showing that you can overcome these disabilities.

My studies in history have made me a terrific writer and researcher. I also have a great amount of experience in creative writing having taken many courses and working in talent agencies. Added to this I have worked in medical offices, elementary schools, coached sports, and am currently a part time law student. I am also a fiction writer and am the author of the amazon eBook series,Chronicles of Richard Spdafore. Please see blog for info. http://richardspadafore.blogspot.com/
I am extremely calm and teach at my students speed. Being dyslexic and not learning how to read or write until I was in 7th grade I am understanding and well-tempered to learning speeds. I also have strong verbal communication skills.

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I used art as a means of improving my perceptiveness of objects, people, and letters orientation. I found that treating cursive writing like a form of art allowed me to improve my writing. Art lessons can enhance/make the student focus on the subtle differences that aid in skills like writing, reading, and tracking.

I do not believe in negative critique. It can be extremely harmful to someone's self image. Instead I praise what the student has accomplished and encourage ways to grow skills and enhance the image created. I prefer to teach one-on-one or two students at a time so that I can personalize the lesson to what the student wants to learn or is interested in drawing. This allows the student to achieve successful growth quickly so they want to keep learning.
I have been tutoring art for over 3 years. My students have often had learning disabilities but that has not stopped them from being successful with traditional as well as digital art. You can view my skills as an artist at zakfalco.com . I have experience tutoring traditional drawing, pastels, charcoal, and pen and ink skills. I also have extensive experience with digital art tutoring in Photoshop, Illustrator, Maya, After Effec ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : My current career is in Applied Behavioral Analysis and my job is to work with children who are not neurotypical for whatever the reason.
