Dyslexia is one of my top subjects! I have taught Special Education reading for 14 years in a public school district but am retiring in June and would like to continue helping struggling readers.

I have taught reading for the last 17 years to struggling readers in a public school. The students that I teach have shown improvement in reading and writing on the state achievement test for the last 10 years. I enjoy working with struggling readers because when they get it it is very rewarding to know that in some way I have helped them enjoy reading.
I am a very patient with students, trying many different ways to try to get them to understand. If I need to use phonics or other word recognition strategies I will.

Don’t wait. A tutor is part of Organic, just a fact

I establish rapport with students and quickly gauge what the difficulties are and what they concerns are. I guide you through the process and make is a step by step process to outperform others, maintain peace of mind and graduate on time. Confidence is essential in organic. We build that first and clear up the confusion being presented to you in a way you will see immediately.
I am an organic chemist. I will only teach you at the level you are assigned. My background makes it easier for you. Anyone can learn organic chemistry or the other subjects and standardized exams I've tutored. I focus on understanding and independence with a minimum of memorization. In fact, that's the only difference between an "A" and something that is unacceptable. I hold a 100% pass rate (or better). I've learned how to make the subject simple, save you time, and learn so you retain it. W ... read more

I find that students (myself included) learn best when they feel safe and that they can be successful. I believe it's important to teach in the zone of proximal development and build on a student's interests. The best way to do this is begin with activities that are fun and if it's possible, to access the creative side of the brain during learning to help students to relax.
My teaching journey has taken me to many different places and I've had the opportunity to work with all ages of students from 3 year olds to college-age. Specifically I have experiences with students who are from culturally and linguistically diverse backrounds and also with students with special needs and learning disabilties. In the last few years I have tutored students one-on-one in organizational skills, studying for tests, writing and editing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an exceptional math/English tutor. I've earned a bachelor degree in Accounting from Santa Clara University. I have three years professional working experience for several multinational companies, which has helped me understand the importance of great communication and math skills in business. In Denver, I've taught math and English to high-risk youth. For the 2010-2011 school year, I had 100% of my students’ parents request me to be next year's tutor. I passed the state certified PLACE mathematics exam showing competency in math (i.e. pre-algebra, algebra I, II, calculus, trig, geometry, and other math operations and concepts). In Peru, I taught English for a year. I speak fluent Spanish and have taught many students with disabilities.
I love teaching kids. Kids absorb new things like a sponge and often need things taught in a variety of ways in order to fully comprehend a sub ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As both a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor and a former teacher, I have a unique perspective with regard to the tutoring process. Similar to counseling, the ultimate goal of tutoring is to facilitates students' understanding of their learning style and to ultimately increase autonomy and self-sufficiency. This philosophy differs from others in that the goal of tutoring is not simply to help the child learn academic material and complete assignments; rather, tutoring serves as a means to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the self and how idiosyncrasies influence individuals' unique learning styles. My experience in both teaching and counseling has imbued a deep understanding of the importance of individual differences and its influence on the learning process. As a rehabilitation counselor, my expertise lie in my work with individuals with disabilities, particularl ... read more

My experience includes 25 years teaching experience in a variety of settings working primarily with elementary grade students. All throughout my teaching career I have provided one-on-one tutoring for my students. I also have experience teaching private swimming lessons with ages ranging from 4 to adult. In the area of special needs, I tutored a Down Syndrome young man for 2 years while transitioning from high school to daily life. We worked on various skills from reading to learning to ride a bicycle. I worked at integrating his strengths into what was being taught to him which made learning more desirable and fun for him. I believe that one of my strengths is working in a one-on-one environment.
The learning style of the individual is a strong factor in how learning takes place. Focusing on the strengths of the individual rather than their weaknesses is the foundation I begin wit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught elementary school in Colorado for 34 years. I have basically taught 2nd-6th graders, and taught a middle school class (combination 6th/7th/8th) one year. The past seventeen years, I have taught gifted/talented students. G/T students usually have asynchronous development, meaning they have strong abilities in some subjects and are weaker in others. Some g/t students are twice-exceptional, meaning they are gifted in particular subjects but have learning disabilities which need to be addressed in others. Therefore, I have experience with the entire spectrum of learning disabled through profoundly gifted students. I am a master teacher in all subject areas, except the arts.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I try to discover each student's particular learning style to help them successfully ... read more
