Reading is one of my top subjects! Reading and Learning Specialist - Focus on struggling readers. Trained in Wilson and other Orton-Gillingham approaches Specialize in individualized attention to students with alternative learning styles and learning challenges

Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University.

I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and nee ... read more

Dedicated Learner Wishing to Help Others

Because of law school, I teach mostly by asking questions. This enables students to feel proud of figuring things out on their own. Unlike my law school professors, however, I am sweet and nurturing.
I tutored students throughout law school in various subjects including, but not limited to, writing. Since opening my own legal writing, researching and editing business, I have assisted attorneys and lay people develop their own writing skills. I am a clasically trained actress who performed in several off Broadway shows in New York City. Although I majored in theatre performance, I excelled in creative writing, with an emphasis on poetry. In high school, I placed out of college English, enabling me to take nothing but creative writing classes. I am a grammar and punctuation nazi with excellent reading comprehension skills. I excel at testing. As an actress/attorney, I have become ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading : See comments on English

I have been teaching many years, and I make sure I keep very much up to date with the teaching styles and ideas in use today, I have bona fide references available from students and their parents, (past and present) to show prospective students. I have worked with students for whom English is a second (or third or fourth) language). I have worked very successfully with students who have had a learning disability or physical or emotional or mental problem of some kind. I apply my teaching expertise and ideas to academics as well as music. All my students tell me that they can tell that I love teaching, by the way I work with them.
I am gentle, yet demanding. I am soft, but strict. I use humor to keep my students interested and in focus. I teach, but I also listen and watch for signals from my students in order to know if they understand or need more explanation. I develop ... read more

Expert at finding the solution to help you or your child!

Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to assess each student's individual learning style, and know how to adapt to each student. Being able to adapt to different learning styles is what sets out tutors about and ensures that the students learns!

Reading is one of my top subjects! I have tutored many children that English is their second language.

Both Montessori and Traditional elemtary school age children.
Teacher at Alexander Montessori School, Miami,Forida 8years. The montessori method is based on self-directed activities, hands on learning and collaborate play. It allows the children to make their own creative decisions. Montessori encourages learning through all five senses. Children learn at their own pace and according to their own choice of activities. I have also taught children in traditional environments. This method is teacher centred rather than learner centred. The focus is on rote learning and memorisation.

Affordable and Experienced Tutor - All Subjects & Test Prep

I have tutored numerous students in all subjects ranging from Mathematics to Science Fair project execution and practice. I am well-versed in all middle and highschool topics. I am a member of the Duke University Class of 2019, I won third place at the International Science and Engineering Fair, and earned a 2400 on my SAT. I have tutored for three years and enjoy seeing the progress that the students make after our sessions.
I prioritize student response to tutor feedback as each student reacts differently to tutoring - some show immediate progress, some require take-home assignments, and some require constant one-on-one attention over the course of a short or long period. My job as a tutor is to adapt to your child's needs. I welcome parent involvement as it often assists the student in progressing.

My comments on tutoring Reading : Elementary to adult education

Twenty years of rotating between five schools as a permanent School Board Certified substitute teacher/tutor as well as tutor college students at the college location. The reading, writing and math included ESOL students. Computer classes which included ESOL students, were keyboarding, word processing, power point, excel and internet. There were adult evening classes on the same subjects. Also write lesson plans, request for needed supplies, oral reports on many different areas of student abilities.
Pleasant and respectful but firm, listen as well as teach. Tutor work from teacher's information to insure the student understands the lesson given by school teacher.
