ADHD & Special Needs Coaching for the Whole Family

My ADHD Coaching experience is through the UNH training program. The classes prepared me to provide a strengths based, step by step approach to supporting students. I'm continuing to take courses so I can use cutting edge techniques to help students improve their executive functioning skills. My counseling and teaching experience has spanned 10 years and my goal is to help students and families enhance their self esteem while improving their study skills.
I use a strengths based, positive coaching style to encourage students to achieve their goals. I use a step by step process and easy to use techniques to help students with ADHD improve their executive functioning skills. Together we will put together a plan that will help students succeed. My extensive background in counseling helps me understand the feelings that can accompany ADHD.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that questions are more powerful teaching tools than simply delivering answers. I do not wish to teach my students WHAT to think; my goal is to help students learn HOW to think, and to develop a pssion for learning which extends well beyond their formal schooling.
Most of my career has involved some level of teachng or training. I trained new volunteers during the Peace Corps, I taught rural Tunisian families how to use available resources to improve their lives, training natural education instructors and volunteers at the Wells Reserve, traqining and coordinating volunteers within my roles as Executive Director, completing all course requirements for my Maine Teacher Certification, obtaining Ed. Tech III, Highly Qualified status in Maine, and substitute teaching, and now in my role as Title I, Ed. Tech II at Valley View Community School in Farmington, NH where I work ex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past several years I have helped students achieve their potential in a wide variety of educational settings. I have taught several different subjects including social studies, math, reading, and French to students ranging from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Although my undergraduate degree is in history and my teacher certification is in social studies, I am fluent in French and am very good at mathematical subjects including geometry, trigonometry, and algebra.
I am very comfortable working with students of all ages. I am extremely patient and easy-going with a good sense of humor. I believe in enabling students to become proficient life-long learners. I try to encourage my students to look beyond the textbook in order to achieve greater enrichment in their lives. Learning should not stop at the school doors. In order to be successful in life, students need to le ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Coming from a family of teachers, the importance of education has always been stressed to me. The emphasis was placed not only on succeeding academically, but also to gain a true understanding of the subject matter. I hold an Associates of Applied Science in Community Service and Leadership and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I also hold a Bachelors of Science in Family Studies with a concentration on early childhood education and graduated Summa Cum Laude. I have an extensive knowledge of reading, writing and grammar and have always scored well into the 90th percentiles on standardized tests in these areas. I completed studies in French I, Spanish II, Modern Greek, and am fluent in American Sign Language.
Working with children has always been my passion. I feel as though it is important to engage all different types of learners and to make them feel as if the classroom is a place where ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Know the student first, then teach the subject! I believe most students learn most effectively when teaching is aimed at their personal learning styles, interests and abilities wherever possible. I always try to customize learning in this way. Understanding my students is the key to good teaching. That is my teaching style. I like to augment more traditional styles of teaching with visual arts and music. I believe in letting a student have control of his /her learning activities and I always teach to NH state standards of learning and assessment, unless working in a more independent setting.
I am an experienced educator who has a wide variety of experience in diverse school settings; public, private, alternative, and adult education. I am NH state certified in Social Studies (HQT) and Special Education. I also earned a masters degree in educational counseling at Southern Connectic ... read more

I have been a Mainstream Coach for the past 8 years as my daughter was entering middle/high school and I wanted to be on a school schedule for her. I have been teaching Special Needs students, modifying the curriculum and assisting with their transition into the mainstream. I have been involved in the Homework Club after school for 2 years, tutoring students in need of support with home work.
Consistent and clear expectations. I am strict, but not overly so, and encourage as much problem solving as possible while asking questions that prod the student into creative search for answers as independently as possible.

More About This Tutor...

I have been involved with education for seven years now. I started by working as a paraprofessional in the special education program at Oyster River High School. This job was essentially daily tutoring of students within the school setting. In addition to this valuable experience I recently recieved my Masters Degree in Secondary English Teaching from the University of New Hampshire (in fact, Graduation was two days ago). The final step in reaching that goal was my year long internship, during which I taught a freshman English class and a Journalism 1 class, as well as helping to co-teach several other classes. Although my expertise is in the realm of English, I have tutored students in Math as high as geometry, and in Physical Science and Biology, as well as History, World Cultures, and Civics.
I am a very honest, laid back teacher. I ask a lot of my students, but I do not do so i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a fourth year special education teacher, I have an extensive repertoire of strategies to help students learn. Having worked with both disabled and nondisabled children, primarily in small group and 1:1 settings, I have developed an acute sense of each of my students' learning styles, strengths and needs. Previously, I have tutored in math, social studies and study skills at the upper elementary level. Over the years I have worked with students between the ages of 2 to 21, addressing a wide range of educational and developmental needs. I am Highly Qualified to teach at the elementary level (K-6) and certified in K-12 general special education. My BA in English also permits me to work with older students in reading and written expression. An avowed lifelong learner, I have always excelled in school, and I greatly enjoy helping other people achieve their personal best.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having a psychology degree from Dennison University I taught Autistic Children at the May School, a private residential setting on Cape Cod for a year. Following that experience I returned to graduate school to get a masters in Early Childhood Educ, k-3. After graduating I took a long term sub position in the special needs dept of an Elementary school. I then worked a year as a chapter one teacher in a public school system with children with language delays, as well as assisting in IEP preperation. I privately tutored a kindergarten student in reading for one summer.
Most of my work with delayed or special need students has been a positive reinforcement approach as well as hands on. I am extremely patient, kind and bring out the best in every child. I have a child with disablities so I know that all children are special in their own way.They all have different learning styles. I h ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My interest in education started in childhood from my parents, both of whom were teachers. Throughout my own schooling I excelled in Language Arts and Mathematics. I obtained a BA in Psychology in 1983 and found that I preferred to work in teaching. My Master’s degree from Northeastern Univ. was completed with a 4.0 grade average. I continue to take graduate courses through the Univ. of Lowell in MA. I have tutored typical children, children with learning disabilities, those who experience difficulties in the elementary years, students with severe disabilities and adults learning English as a Second Language. Teaching effective study skills and academic organization is a particular specialty of mine.
When I first meet students I informally assess their learning style. I begin at the level of the student and devise lessons and strategies to help the student reach lear ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I use a variety of teaching styles and methods for children. I use various styles of music, composers and performers in lesson plans. Currently I am using books on music and musicians as part of my lesson plans. I believe literature is extremely important in teaching children. I am direct with children in my classroom. I give them expectations, I set goals, and I follow through. It is important for an instructor to state exactly what is expected of the student in order to help them achieve their goals.
I have been teaching children of all ages for over 25 years. My primary expertise has been in music education. I have been employed in public, private and parochial schools throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Not only have I created traditional lessons for children in the classroom, but I have also gained experience as a musician, performing in a variety of ensembles, bands a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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). My teaching experience for the past 37 years is as follows: Elementary Resource Teacher (K-6)-( pull-out services ... read more
