Hearing Impaired Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Harvard, MA

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the

Whether I am helping a student with prioritizing assignments, studying for tests, teaching study skills, or guiding him or her process of writing papers, I strive to promote metacognitive awareness throughout the tutoring experience. Students ultimately need to develop an awareness of how they learn best and what strategies work for them. It is my job to facilitate this process while yielding improved academic results through collaboration with students along the way. Over the course of my years as a Learning Specialist in a university setting, and as Master Tutor Certified by The College Reading and Learning Association, I have developed and refined successful techniques with students who may struggle with the following: executive functioning issues, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, Asberger’s Syndrome, English as a Second Language, and various non-verbal learning disabilities.

As a four-year teacher, I have had the opportunity to create my own philosophy based on my experience. I have taught both regular and special ed. children and have the same philosophy for all my students. I truly believe that every child is capable of learning and as a teacher; I need to identify the best approach to meet the needs of each child. Once I get to learn about their learning style, I can accommodate their needs more efficiently. Every child is unique and has his/her own needs and abilities and deserves to be treated fairly. . I want the students to feel at ease within the classroom and not timid in the learning process. I teach as a constructivist where students not only learn, but internalize their own knowledge. Everything that I teach the children has a purpose. I also use alternative forms of assessment to assess ones students progress throughout the year. This i

I have always loved working with children whether it be in a school setting, Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts or home schooling my daughter. I am dedicated, motivated, innovative, fun and caring. I understand the diverse needs of children and am flexible enough to know how to adapt and change my style based on the individuals I am working with. Children need to believe they can learn, that they can achieve and they can be successful. I want to be the one to help children be the best they can be. I know I can be the one to make that difference. As a graduate of Simmons College and Lesley University, I was always and active learner especially in the English language. I have earned a BA in Communications and a M.Ed. in Elementary Education, which has enabled to me to be quite successful in the areas of reading and writing.

I believe that in order to be a truly exceptional teacher, one must put an effort into getting to know their students as an individual. It is important to design lessons that will compliment a student's personal learning style and reflect their interests. I think that learning

I have enjoyed teaching children of all ages. I find it not only rewarding for me, but for the students who find success in my teaching expertise. Being a Special Education teacher, I have used a multi-sensory approach to learning. Children need to access all modalities (visual, auditory, sensory, tactile), because students have different learning styles in achieving goals and success in the learning process. All children can learn with the right teaching approach, skills, and materials necessary for their learning style in achieving academic success. I am available every day morning, afternoon, and evenings. I am a teacher with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education (K-8), Masters Degree in Education and a Moderate Special Needs Certification(K-8).
